Summary

Function: llMapDestination( string simname, vector pos, vector look_at );

Opens world map centered on simname with pos highlighted.
Only works for scripts attached to avatar, or during touch events.

• string simname Region name
• vector pos Region coordinates
• vector look_at not used

(NOTE: look_at currently does nothing)

Caveats

  • This function causes the script to sleep for 1.0 seconds.
  • if simname is omitted, map will open centered on object, but pos will not be highlighted

• Unresolved VWR-2060 pos is sometimes replaced with incorrect data

Examples

//Click the object this script is in and your map opens up in the middle of Oasis.
default
{
     touch_start(integer num)
     {
          llMapDestination("Oasis", <128, 128, 0>, ZERO_VECTOR);
     }
}

Notes

  • pos will work with Region coordinates not inside simname. (like those returned by llRequestInventoryData)
  • if called from an event other than touch, it only works for the owner.
  • if called from touch, it may only work for the first or last touch in the event queue (example: num_touched > 1)
