Summary
Function: rotation llGetRootRotation( );| 269 | Function ID |
| 0.0 | Forced Delay |
| 10.0 | Energy |
Returns a rotation that is the region rotation of the root prim of the object.
Caveats
- Returns an accurate facing for Avatars seated or in mouselook, but only a rough direction otherwise when called from an attached prim.
- When a seated avatar is in mouselook, its rotation is affected by the camera's rotation. There is no way to get the actual rotation of an avatar while seated in mouselook.
- This function incorrectly (but usefully) returns the avatars region rotation when called in an attachment, use the following instead:
// if called only from the root
llGetLocalRot();
// if called from in a linked object
llList2Rot( llGetLinkPrimitiveParams( LINK_ROOT, [PRIM_ROT_LOCAL] ), 0 );
// this alternative works correctly in all scenarios
llList2Rot( llGetLinkPrimitiveParams( !!llGetLinkNumber(), [PRIM_ROT_LOCAL] ), 0 );
Examples
Simple example to set region rotation of child prim in unattached link set
default
{
state_entry()
{
//Rotate 45 degrees about Y-axis
rotation globalRot = llEuler2Rot(<0.0, 45.0, 0.0> * DEG_TO_RAD);
llSetLocalRot(globalRot / llGetRootRotation());
}
}
Notes
In an attached object, returns region rotation of avatar NOT of the object's root prim. See special cases of rotation.
