Summary

Function: string llGetAnimation( key id );

Returns a string that is the name of the currently playing locomotion animation for avatar id. See the table below.

• key id avatar UUID that is in the same region

llGetAgentInfo provides information on some animation states not covered by this function (typing, away, busy). llGetAnimationList provides more detailed information about the running animations, but may not reflect avatar state as accurately as llGetAnimation.

Caveats

  • New return values could conceivably be added at any time and this list may not in-fact be complete. Scripts should be written under the assumption that they may receive a value they won't recognize.
