Summary

Function: llTeleportAgent( key avatar, string landmark, vector position, vector look_at );

Requests a teleport of avatar to a landmark stored in the object's inventory. If no landmark is provided (an empty string), the avatar is teleported to the location position in the current region. In either case, the avatar is turned to face the position given by look_at in local coordinates.

• key avatar avatar UUID that is in the same region (the avatar to teleport, must be the owner)
• string landmark a landmark in the inventory of the prim this script is in or an empty string (for teleporting within the same region)
• vector position The position within the local region to teleport the avatar to if no landmark was provided.
• vector look_at The position within the target region that the avatar should be turned to face upon arrival.

To run this function the script must request the PERMISSION_TELEPORT permission with llRequestPermissions and it must be granted by avatar.

Caveats

  • If landmark is not an empty string and...
    • landmark is missing from the prim's inventory or it is not a landmark then an error is shouted on DEBUG_CHANNEL.
Permissions
  • Once the PERMISSION_TELEPORT permission is granted there is no way to revoke it except from inside the script (for example, with a new llRequestPermissions call) or the script is reset or deleted.
  • This function can only teleport the owner of the object.
  • Teleports are throttled
  • This function cannot be used in a script in an object attached using llAttachToAvatarTemp.
  • Sitting avatars cannot be teleported using this function. You must llUnSit them first.
  • This function does not override a parcel's teleport settings, i.e. if the parcel has a landing zone enabled the agent will be teleported there.
  • This function will cause other HUD scripts worn by the same user (or other scripts in the same HUD) to crash unpredictably, resulting in "Unable to load script state" and "Bounds check Errors", still unresolved via Jira.

Without a landmark in the object's inventory <lsl>key teleportee;

default {

   state_entry()
   {
       llSay(0, "Touch to teleport");
   }
   touch_start(integer total_num)
   {
       teleportee = llDetectedKey(0);
       llRequestPermissions(teleportee, PERMISSION_TELEPORT);
   }
   
   run_time_permissions(integer perm)
   {
       if(PERMISSION_TELEPORT & perm)
       {
           llTeleportAgent(teleportee, "", <13.0, 38.0, 23.5>, <13.0, 12.0, 23.5>);
       }
   }

} </lsl> With a landmark in the objects inventory <lsl> key teleportee;

default {

   state_entry()
