Script question??? Time of day setting??

Hello,

I've been reading the forums looking for some information but have not been able to find.

Is it even possible to add a script to a prim that on touch can change the persons time of day setting?

Example: On touching the prim you receive an option to set your world/time of day setting to mid-day. So if it's night, someone can just click to turn it to day time?

Or, even better, on contact get the option, such as a welcome mat at the landing area offering to change that AV's setting to mid-day.

Thanks for any help!

The only way that I know to do this through a script is Restrained Life's @setenv suite of commands. But this doesn't seem like a very good solution for you.

Thanks, I think I see the command that just might do this... but its over my head.

"Force change an environment setting : @setenv_<setting>:<value>=force
Implemented in v1.14 Forces the viewer to change a particular environment setting (time of day or Windlight) and set it to <value>. This command is actually a package of many sub-commands, that are regrouped under "@setenv_...", for instance "@setenv_daytime:0.5=force", "@setenv_bluehorizonr:0.21=force" etc."

My limited understanding thinks this line is the key part.

"@setenv_daytime:0.5=force",

Is this correct? And can this be worked into a script to do as listed above? As in a welcome floor mat.

Yeah, probably the easiest way would be to have an invisible prim that people collide with where your welcome mat is. Something like this:

integer RLV_CHANNEL = -1812221819;
default {
    collision_start(integer num) {
        integer ii;
        for ( ii=0; ii<num; ++ii ) {
            llWhisper( RLV_CHANNEL, "SetTimeOfDay," + (string)llDetectedOwner(ii) + 
                ",@setenv_daytime:0.5=force" );
        }
    }
}

Though do realize that this will only work for people who are:

1. Using a viewer implementing Restrained Life. (ie, the official Restrained Life viewer, Cool Viewer with the option on, etc).
2. Wearing a Restrained Life Relay.

How likely these things are depends on venue. =p Still, it doesn't hurt to have this in addition to having instructions for people to set their time-of-day on their own.

Ok, I see. So even getting this working would mean it only works on a very small % of people (next to zero).

Well, had to ask. Thanks for looking into it for me.
