Notes

This is not a good way of testing if an avatar is in the region, use llGetAgentSize instead.

Footnotes

  1. ^ "Sit down" on the avatar context menu allows ground sits anywhere: atop the terrain, on objects or even in the air, so it is possible to sit "on" an object without linking.
  2. ^ Early release notes were not very accurate or thorough, they sometimes included information about features added in previous releases or failed to include information about features added in that release.
