Summary

Function: vector llGetVel( );

Returns a vector that is the velocity of the object. It is relative to the global coordinate frame (the object rotation has no affect on this functions output).

Examples

<lsl>//A very simple (and not very effective) way of keeping a physical object in place. //If you ever want to actually stop an object, use llMoveToTarget(llGetPos(), .1) default {

   state_entry() {
       vector spd;
       {@loop;
           if (llVecMag(spd = llGetVel()) > .001) { //We're accelerating...
               llApplyImpulse(-spd, 0) //Slow us down.
           }
       jump loop;}
   }
