I have an idea. Set a circle out on the ground. Make an animation so that avatar will crouch and touch circle with both hands. Upon this action, Avatar will be teleported in a glowing circle of light to another place. Good? Any ideas how to start? LOL

At a guess, your basic sit teleport script, I'd say, with the sitting bit preceded by llStopAnimation("sit"
; llStartAnimation("magic circle" ; and an llSleep of the appropriate length before it teleports you.Sounds quite fun though. |

Are we talking "poof, I'm there!" teleport or "wee! This is fast!" teleport? If it's the former, that involves changing the sit target of the circle object and you'd instantly be at the destination without any animations (though you could certainly have the avatar do a spectacular appearance animation before unsitting them). If it's the latter, you're using llSetPos to move the circle along and would easily have time to do the animation. But you have to reason weither it's faster to walk/run/fly versus using the circle if the animation is too long before teleporting.
But it's a nice idea though, it paints a nice dramatic picture in my mind. And if I didn't already make glasses of town portal (mine is a sit teleporter) I'd probably watch for this. _____________________
