llSetRot not doing anything

Please drop this code into the touch_start of a fresh cube with a new script and tell me if it does what you think it should do.

rotation r = llGetRot();
llTargetOmega( <1.,0.,0.>, TWO_PI, 1.);
llSleep(5.2);
llTargetOmega( <1.,0.,0.>, 0., 1.);
llSleep(2.);
llSetRot( r);

I think it should rotate for five seconds, stop, wait two seconds, and restore its rotation to its original position. It rotates, but doesn't restore to the original position. That is, the llSetRot doesn't seem to do anything.

Any idea why?

Thanks,
Anya

bug.

fly up like, 200m, then back down and your object should have "rotated".

In this case the server does not send an update to the client it seems.

Yea, this is yet another old bug...you can *force* the client to get an update with scripted movement calls that come after the object is rotated, but other than that it's just kind of hit and miss...the object is doing what you told it to, but you just aren't being shown by SL that it has done it.

Also, usually if you right-click and choose Edit, you'll see the object snap to its correct position on your screen.

Thanks for the confirmation. Combined with the "target omega does nothing until you interract with the object" bug, I guess objects just weren't meant to rotate.

The number of search results that comes up with the words 'llSetTargetOmega' and 'bug' is really quite astounding.

LL, why is this so hard (impossible?) to do right?
