Summary

Function: llTeleportAgentGlobalCoords( key agent, vector global_coordinates, vector region_coordinates, vector look_at );

Teleports an agent to set of a region_coordinates within a region at the specified global_coordinates. The agent lands facing the position defined by look_at local coordinates. A region's global coordinates can be retrieved using llRequestSimulatorData(region_name, DATA_SIM_POS)

• key agent avatar UUID that is in the same region (avatar to be teleported)
• vector global_coordinates Global coordinates of the destination region. Can be retrieved by using llRequestSimulatorData(region_name, DATA_SIM_POS).
• vector region_coordinates Destination position inside the target region, given in local coordinates.
• vector look_at Location avatar will face after completing the teleport, given in local coordinates.

To run this function the script must request the PERMISSION_TELEPORT permission with llRequestPermissions and it must be granted by agent. The combination of llRequestSimulatorData and llTeleportAgentGlobalCoords allows agents to be teleported to regions by region name.

Caveats

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 (unless part of an Experience).
  • 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.
  • If the script is part of an experience that the avatar has granted permission, then this function may teleport them without being the owner and it will override parcel teleport routing.
