====Bio====

Overbrain Unplugged is a student attending a four year program at a university in the greater Los Angeles area.

Inworld, she owns and operates [[Hypersonic Space Systems]], a maker of aerospace instruments, vehicles, megastructures, sculpted products and scripted systems for aerospace effects. Overbrain also is a senior manager for Aspects, adminning their [[3DBuildEasy]] and [[Ferox]] sandbox sims, building products for their various companies, as well as teaching customers how to use the companys [[SculptCrafter]] products for sculpting inworld.

Overbrain is a proud retired/alumnus of the [[Merczateers]] Tactical Forces, Air Division, where she contributed to the group's preeminent status in the SL combat community.

"Obie" as she is also known, has been very active in [[SWRP]] aka Star Wars Role Play within the SL community, formerly being High Chancellor of the Galactic Alliance, she is presently Senator for Tython in the New Republic, and chair of the Senate Defense Committee where she is actively organizing the [[New Republic Grand Fleet]] for defense of Republic worlds.

Other than that, she pretty much does it for the lulz.

Overbrain Unplugged:

===PRIM_TYPE_SCULPT===
Apparently it is not possible to use this feature to get the UUID of the sculpt map, even if they are your sculpts. This is a permissions issue that is not documented. [[User:Overbrain Unplugged|Overbrain Unplugged]] 20:33, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

===Alphabetization===
This page is listed under 'C' where it should be listed under 'G'. Unfortunately, the methodology to adjust this improper alphabetization is obfuscated by overly complex format structure.

Could someone with more experience let me know how to accomplish this otherwise minor change?

Thanks and Cheers!

:It's a MediaWiki bug. I haven't yet found a bug in templates that causes the disordering of the category pages. A temporary fix is to edit and save any page that is out of order (which lends credence to the theory that it's a MediaWiki bug). The problem arises from editing the templates the pages are based on. Obviously the templates need to be improved from time to time as new concepts are added. -- [[User:Strife Onizuka|Strife Onizuka]] 18:38, 18 April 2007 (PDT)

::Don't take what I said about the templates to mean I agree that they are overly complex, I wrote the templates. Some aspects of the complexity are intentional, others were left over from previous revisions (lava flowed in). I've been meaning to write an article on the design and how to extend it. --[[User:Strife Onizuka|Strife Onizuka]] 21:33, 18 April 2007 (PDT)

Umm - I just tested out the Strife's code fragment, and I'm trying to debug it as I have time. No workee. --[[User:Nobody Fugazi|Nobody Fugazi]] 09:32, 27 February 2008 (PST)

:Your not the first person to say this recently, I've poked at the code and I can't find anything wrong with it. How are you using it? -- [[User:Strife Onizuka|Strife Onizuka]] 03:01, 29 February 2008 (PST)

For anyone curious to the shorthand used and who wish to use a lookup table can use this as a reference. Or anyone who wishes to add a new function to the library is welcome to but it would be recommended to keep consistency.
I tried to minimize the script function names to be easily readable. All the geometric function names start with a g.

''g'' ('''Shape1''') ('''Shape2''') ('''Process''') ('''Return''' (''Only needed if other than integer''))

Overbrain Unplugged: /* Script */

{{LSL Header}}
====Description====
This script is useful code to implement rezzing events where you want the items rezzed to exhibit science fictiony teleportation or materialization effects. It starts off with alpha (transparency) being set to 0.0 (fully transparent) with glow at 1.00 (full glow), and transitions over 20 steps to zero transparency and 10% glow (you can modify the final glow by setting the glow value inside the "if" statement to 0.0, and the stepping value from 0.045 to 0.05, if you want it to have zero final glow).

====Description====
This script is useful code to implement rezzing events where you want the items rezzed to exhibit science fictiony teleportation or materialization effects. It starts off with alpha (transparency) being set to 0.0 (fully transparent) with glow at 1.00 (full glow), and transitions over 20 steps to zero transparency and 10% glow (you can modify the final glow by setting the glow value inside the "if" statement to 0.0, and the stepping value from 0.045 to 0.05, if you want it to have zero final glow).

Come to this page to see complex examples that show how to combine parts of LSL.

Go to the [[:Category:LSL Examples|LSL Examples]] page to see brief examples of how to use parts of LSL

Why collect complex examples here? Well, ...

There are many [[script|scripts]] that have become buried in the [http://forums-archive.secondlife.com/15/1.html Scripting Library archive] or the newer [https://blogs.secondlife.com/community/forums/scripting_library?view=discussions Scripting Library forum], were lost with the death of the early scripting forums, or sit idle in [[inventory|inventories]] that could be useful and should be more accessible.

Other scripters may be in the same situation. This wiki is a well-suited medium for a script library. Feel free to add your scripts to the script library by creating new pages for them and linking to those pages here.

Note that there are many more scripts in the LSL Library here, but you can't get to them if you don't know they exist, because they are subpages now, instead of an automatically updated category. Good luck searching.

Overbrain Unplugged: /* Themed Military Roleplay Combat Areas using LLCS */

{{Help|Misc=*}}

Combat in Second Life is a dynamic and ever changing world. This article will try to teach you some of the basics of this world.

== Introduction ==

Some areas of Second Life are designed for the sole purpose of inter-resident combat, in other areas combat is part of a larger role-playing ambiance.
There are two basic types of combat system in second life:

*The built-in Linden Lab Combat System (LLCS)
*User-created combat systems.

==Linden Lab Combat System (LLCS)==

The Linden Lab Combat System is in effect in any parcel that the owner has designated as "unsafe". When you are in one of these areas there will be a heart with a percentage next to it on your upper menu bar. When you see this meter, it means you can be killed in the area. When this percentage drops to zero, you are then 'dead', and you will teleported to your home location.

Please note that being killed is '''not''' a big deal. You have to teleport back into the combat simulation from your home location, if you want to return to the combat. You will not lose anything (money, attachments, inventory) if you happen to die in this manner. However, NEVER set your home to an area that has Damage enabled, or else you may become stuck in an infinite teleport loop by a weapon that continuously kills you.

In the LLCS, damage is dealt by collisions with scripted objects that have used [[LlSetDamage]] to make themselves damaging. Residents also take damage when they collide with any object, or with the ground (as in falling), at sufficiently high speed.

There are several ways to defeat the LLCS. The most prominent method involves forcing your agent to become phantom. This is accomplished by sitting on an object, and then having that object enable Volume Detect. Upon standing, the agent will be “phantom” and no objects will be able to collide with that agent. To reverse this effect, sit on an object and have the object disable Volume Detect. Additionally, Volume Detect can be enabled before the agent sits, and the phantom status will be applied to the agent only while it is sitting on the object. If the agent teleports out of the region or crosses a region border, it will lose its phantom status.

To instantly kill an agent, that agent must be hit with an object that has its damage percent set to 100% (via llSetDamage()). Here are the conditions that will cause death.

*Agent is not sitting
**Agent is phantom
***Agent can’t be killed
**Agent is not phantom
***Agent can be killed by any non-physical, non-phantom object that has its damage percent set to 100%.
***Agent can be killed by any physical, non-phantom object that has its damage percent set to 100%.
*Agent is sitting
**Agent is phantom
***Agent can’t be killed
**Agent is not phantom
***Agent can NOT be killed by a non-physical object.
***Agent can be killed by any physical, non-phantom object that has its damage percent set to 100%.

Damage "heals" gradually over time.

So, what regions support combat? For the beginner, places like New Jessie, Core and Rausch are good ideas. They all cater to different tastes, so let's check them out.

===New Jessie - an Open Combat Zone===

[http://slurl.com/secondlife/New%20Jessie%20Combat/240/251/303/ New Jessie SLurl]

[[Image:New Jessie Ideal.jpg]]

New Jessie is an open combat sim which is unaffiliated with any military and where everyone is welcome. When you land here, you can set your home here so that during combat, you need not teleport back when you die. There is a healthy mix of close quarters combat in a small town there, as well as a pair of bunkers and a shorefront with barbed wire and tank spikes. On top of all of it, there is a hub featuring a weapons shop, many free weapons, and a combat museum detailing the history of early combat in Second Life. Full prim and currently undergoing a major rebuild, New Jessie is the premier sim for conventional combat in Second Life.

===Combat Core===

Do or Die ?

This SIM is full of danger.Combat (sandbox) Core (wipa 60min) LLCS damage.

You do not need the reason for attack in this SIM.
The use of arms that the guns and are all HUD is permitted to you.
Prohibition item:HUGE PRIM, chat spam and more spam.

[http://slurl.com/secondlife/Combat%20Core/128/128/28 Combat Core Safe Zone SLurl]

[[Image:Core_logo02.jpg]]

Combat Core is a free combat sandbox that allows you to utilize varioius weapons to fight other combatants.
There is no unnecessary obstacles and object, which makes movement in Combat Core smooth and relatively lag free.
At Combat Core, you may also make your own weapon, and use them during combat. If you join the "Core Combat Crew" group at the front of the central tower, you will have access to home setting.
This will allow you to eliminate the time which must be used to TP from your home to the combat sandbox if you get killed.
All are free to join the "Core Combat Crew" group. Enjoy exciting and efficient combat simulation at Combat Core!

===Public LLCS combat areas===

Some of the most popular public LLCS combat areas are Rausch, Blue Base, and Red Base. These three sims are free-for-all sandboxes. There is a "safe zone" in the Rausch sandbox where you can't be attacked. It is usually surrounded by big yellow markers, and people have a tendency to gather in this area. (Please note that the "bases" are not really "bases" for anyone. They are free-for-all maps.)

The difference between Rausch and other combat sims is that Rausch is a public sandbox region, as opposed to a private combat sim. Anything is allowed here, so you're very likely to be killed before you know what hit you - although it also means you can kill others the same way.

The fastest way to find these regions is to type "combat" into the places search.

[http://slurl.com/secondlife/Combat%20(sandbox)%20Rausch/172/163/22 Rausch Safe Zone SLurl]

[[Image:CombatBases.jpg]]

===Themed Military Roleplay Combat Areas using LLCS===
There are also many other regions & groups specifically for combat or military roleplay, which are running the LLCS damage system, among these are:

*[http://slurl.com/secondlife/New%20Jessie/197/92/301 New Jessie SLurl]
*[http://slurl.com/secondlife/Badnarik/172/163/22 Merczateers HQ(Badnarik) SLurl]
*[http://slurl.com/secondlife/Titan/172/163/22 Ordo Imperialis HQ(Titan) SLurl]
*[http://slurl.com/secondlife/2142/172/163/22 2142 HQ(2142) SLurl]
*[http://slurl.com/secondlife/Elshout/172/163/22 Alliance Navy HQ(Elshout) SLurl]

*[http://slurl.com/secondlife/Silver%20Side%20Bay/128/128/26 Gravity Zero Public Combat(Silver Side Bay) SLurl]

== User-Created Combat Systems (UCCS) ==

User-created combat systems do not use the built-in LLCS (and for this reason are sometimes called "safezone" combat systems), but instead use scripted objects both to track and to deal damage.

This type of combat system can be used in any area that allows scripts to run. Usually these systems require the player to wear a "tag" or a "HUD" in order to play. This monitors your health, and various other stats, varying among the combat systems.

These systems usually come with their own sets of rules that disallow the use of anything from advanced weapons to Bots to shields to instant-killers with the exception of basic weaponry and in some rare cases some small explosives. Sometimes the UCCS' rules include the neccessity of [[Roleplay]]ing, but some again are just straight forward killing. Some advanced UCCS keep stats of the players such as kill count, death count, level etc.

When the player dies, unlike the LLCS, they will not be teleported back home. They will typically either "respawn" after a few minutes or some advanced systems will spawn a "spawn ball" which the player sits on and they will be able to respawn at a random location in the combat area with full health.
The exact effects of "death" depend on the particular UCCS in use.

It is important to note that many UCCS frown upon Defenses (shield, auto orbit), Advanced "guns", Large Scale Explosives (+5 m), Automated Turrets, orbit, lag bombs. Most UCCS simulations also recommend using High quality basic weaponry that do not cause Lag within the SIM.

A Few Notable User Created Combat Systems are [http://www.dcs2.org DCS] [http://www.bnjrps.com RPS]', 'CCS' 'RCS 'TCS', '[http://www.rpcombat.com RPCS]', 'Carnage Island Combat' 'XCS', 'Pure Combat', '[http://www.goodman-studios.biz/docs/battlezone-combat-system-2 BattleZone]', [http://BNWCS.org BNWCS], '[http://www.goodman-studios.biz/docs/gorean-ladder-meter Gorean Ladder Meter]', [http://www.urcs.info URCS] and HCS.

Because user-created combat systems generally depend on cooperation between scripted damage-dealing objects and scripted damage-sensing objects owned and worn by the player being damaged, there is a great potential for 'cheating', by writing scripts that appear to be obeying the rules of the system, but that in fact make the player very hard to damage, very good at dealing damage, or both. While most users of these combat systems enjoy competing legitimately, there are always a few who try to cheat, and different combat communities and combat systems have taken various approaches to detecting, preventing, or discouraging the cheaters.

== Engagement ==

In Second Life you have a vast array of weapons, combat vehicles, and defense mechanisms at your disposal, for a vast and sometimes baffling array of different and often incompatible combat systems.

When buying combat devices, it's important to be sure that they are compatible with
the combat system(s) in use in the area(s) where you plan to engage!
That Gorean sword may prove entirely useless against the band of Samurai
that you were planning to fight...

=== Weaponry ===

There are hundreds of [[weapon]]s in Second Life to choose from, compatible with various different combat systems. These weapons may be classified into several categories:

*Basic Guns - Guns that fire basic physical bullets. These are stopped by most quality shield systems.
*Advanced "Guns" - Guns that fire tracking, non-physical bullets. These can't be stopped by all but the most advanced (and expensive) defense systems.
*Explosives and "Nukes" - Self explanatory. These range from basic explosives to nukes that can kill everyone within 96m of the detonation point.
*Advanced Weapons - The most effective and powerful weapons often combine a number of different effects with sophisticated, often HUD-based controls. There are several quality HUD-based combat systems available, as described below.
*Robots and Turrets - These can be remote controlled, or set to fire on certain targets automatically.
*Annoyance weapons - Stuff like caging guns, anything that flings people into the air, and in general things that annoy rather than, or as well as, dealing combat-system damage. Considered "noobish" and frowned upon by experienced combat people.

For more information, see [[Weapon]].

=== Combat Vehicles ===

Sadly, the use of combat vehicles has reduced in second life. While they are very fun to fly, most vehicles will be "disrupted" by shields in actual combat situations, causing them to fly away. The only way to avoid this is to use non-physical vehicles.

=== Defense ===

Defense plays an important part in combat life. An undefended avatar can be obliterated by modern weaponry, ruining the fun for many new combat players. There are several ways to defend yourself in Second Life.

*Shields
*Offsim Bots
*The Phantom Glitch

Shields, for the most part, have become obsolete with todays weapons. Any shield that offers true 100% protection will be using the Phantom glitch, by means of an object that you sit on.

Offsim bots place your agent out of the current sim, while moving your camera so you see through the eyes of the bot. This technology works well against less sophisticated weapons, but it can and has been defeated.

The Phantom Glitch was discussed in detail earlier in this article. When your agent is phantom, bullets and "killprims" can't collide with you, making you invincible.

Note that many role-play areas disallow some defensive items.

== Non-Lethal Warfare ==

There are some weapons that can be used to disrupt or annoy another player without actually killing them.

*Orbiting is the term used when one player causes another player to be flung up insanely high in the air.
*People use "traps" to render a physical avatar unable to move.
*"Lag-Bombs" are devices of various kinds that eat up Sim resources and cause lag, thus slowing down the target Resident's activities.

While this kind on non-lethal device can (sometimes) be appropriate to delay or detour a legitimate opponent in a combat game, they are also commonly used by [[griefer]]s against unwilling victims in both combat and non-combat areas. They therefore tend to have a poor reputation, and to be looked down upon in many combat communities.

In the area of defense against pushes and pulls, most combatants use a device known as a "non-phys". A non-phys makes your avatar non-physical, in other words immune to being pushed or pulled. Period. A non-phys is basically a prim that you sit on, usually it becomes invisible once you sit, and you steer it around just like you are moving normally. When using a non-phys, you can pass through objects and walls.

If a non-phys is not handy and you are in danger of being orbited, just create a prim box and sit on it.

== Advanced Weapons ==

The most powerful weapons in Second Life enable you to simply say (or click) a command, such as "kill joh", resulting in the nearest person with joh in their name being killed instantly.
Because many of the currently popular weapons in this class use Heads-Up Displays ([[HUD]]s), they are sometimes referred to as "Combat HUDs".
They usually offer a substantial arsenal of attacks that you can deploy, other than the standard "kill person" command. These include orbiting, "burning" people, trapping, auto-killing, etc.

Some advanced weapons are designed primarily to deal damage and provide defense in a single combat system (either LLCS or a user-created system); others support two or more different combat systems in a single device.
Still others concentrate on the non-lethal actions and annoyances described above, and merge into the category of griefer and anti-griefer devices and away from legitimate combat.

Overbrain Unplugged: /* Public LLCS combat areas */

{{Help|Misc=*}}

Combat in Second Life is a dynamic and ever changing world. This article will try to teach you some of the basics of this world.

== Introduction ==

Some areas of Second Life are designed for the sole purpose of inter-resident combat, in other areas combat is part of a larger role-playing ambiance.
There are two basic types of combat system in second life:

*The built-in Linden Lab Combat System (LLCS)
*User-created combat systems.

==Linden Lab Combat System (LLCS)==

The Linden Lab Combat System is in effect in any parcel that the owner has designated as "unsafe". When you are in one of these areas there will be a heart with a percentage next to it on your upper menu bar. When you see this meter, it means you can be killed in the area. When this percentage drops to zero, you are then 'dead', and you will teleported to your home location.

Please note that being killed is '''not''' a big deal. You have to teleport back into the combat simulation from your home location, if you want to return to the combat. You will not lose anything (money, attachments, inventory) if you happen to die in this manner. However, NEVER set your home to an area that has Damage enabled, or else you may become stuck in an infinite teleport loop by a weapon that continuously kills you.

In the LLCS, damage is dealt by collisions with scripted objects that have used [[LlSetDamage]] to make themselves damaging. Residents also take damage when they collide with any object, or with the ground (as in falling), at sufficiently high speed.

There are several ways to defeat the LLCS. The most prominent method involves forcing your agent to become phantom. This is accomplished by sitting on an object, and then having that object enable Volume Detect. Upon standing, the agent will be “phantom” and no objects will be able to collide with that agent. To reverse this effect, sit on an object and have the object disable Volume Detect. Additionally, Volume Detect can be enabled before the agent sits, and the phantom status will be applied to the agent only while it is sitting on the object. If the agent teleports out of the region or crosses a region border, it will lose its phantom status.

To instantly kill an agent, that agent must be hit with an object that has its damage percent set to 100% (via llSetDamage()). Here are the conditions that will cause death.

*Agent is not sitting
**Agent is phantom
***Agent can’t be killed
**Agent is not phantom
***Agent can be killed by any non-physical, non-phantom object that has its damage percent set to 100%.
***Agent can be killed by any physical, non-phantom object that has its damage percent set to 100%.
*Agent is sitting
**Agent is phantom
***Agent can’t be killed
**Agent is not phantom
***Agent can NOT be killed by a non-physical object.
***Agent can be killed by any physical, non-phantom object that has its damage percent set to 100%.

Damage "heals" gradually over time.

So, what regions support combat? For the beginner, places like New Jessie, Core and Rausch are good ideas. They all cater to different tastes, so let's check them out.

===New Jessie - an Open Combat Zone===

[http://slurl.com/secondlife/New%20Jessie%20Combat/240/251/303/ New Jessie SLurl]

[[Image:New Jessie Ideal.jpg]]

New Jessie is an open combat sim which is unaffiliated with any military and where everyone is welcome. When you land here, you can set your home here so that during combat, you need not teleport back when you die. There is a healthy mix of close quarters combat in a small town there, as well as a pair of bunkers and a shorefront with barbed wire and tank spikes. On top of all of it, there is a hub featuring a weapons shop, many free weapons, and a combat museum detailing the history of early combat in Second Life. Full prim and currently undergoing a major rebuild, New Jessie is the premier sim for conventional combat in Second Life.

===Combat Core===

Do or Die ?

This SIM is full of danger.Combat (sandbox) Core (wipa 60min) LLCS damage.

You do not need the reason for attack in this SIM.
The use of arms that the guns and are all HUD is permitted to you.
Prohibition item:HUGE PRIM, chat spam and more spam.

[http://slurl.com/secondlife/Combat%20Core/128/128/28 Combat Core Safe Zone SLurl]

[[Image:Core_logo02.jpg]]

Combat Core is a free combat sandbox that allows you to utilize varioius weapons to fight other combatants.
There is no unnecessary obstacles and object, which makes movement in Combat Core smooth and relatively lag free.
At Combat Core, you may also make your own weapon, and use them during combat. If you join the "Core Combat Crew" group at the front of the central tower, you will have access to home setting.
This will allow you to eliminate the time which must be used to TP from your home to the combat sandbox if you get killed.
All are free to join the "Core Combat Crew" group. Enjoy exciting and efficient combat simulation at Combat Core!

===Public LLCS combat areas===

Some of the most popular public LLCS combat areas are Rausch, Blue Base, and Red Base. These three sims are free-for-all sandboxes. There is a "safe zone" in the Rausch sandbox where you can't be attacked. It is usually surrounded by big yellow markers, and people have a tendency to gather in this area. (Please note that the "bases" are not really "bases" for anyone. They are free-for-all maps.)

The difference between Rausch and other combat sims is that Rausch is a public sandbox region, as opposed to a private combat sim. Anything is allowed here, so you're very likely to be killed before you know what hit you - although it also means you can kill others the same way.

The fastest way to find these regions is to type "combat" into the places search.

===Themed Military Roleplay Combat Areas using LLCS===
There are also many other regions & groups specifically for combat or military roleplay, which are running the LLCS damage system, among these are:

*[http://slurl.com/secondlife/Silver%20Side%20Bay/128/128/26 Gravity Zero Public Combat(Silver Side Bay) SLurl]

== User-Created Combat Systems (UCCS) ==

User-created combat systems do not use the built-in LLCS (and for this reason are sometimes called "safezone" combat systems), but instead use scripted objects both to track and to deal damage.

This type of combat system can be used in any area that allows scripts to run. Usually these systems require the player to wear a "tag" or a "HUD" in order to play. This monitors your health, and various other stats, varying among the combat systems.

These systems usually come with their own sets of rules that disallow the use of anything from advanced weapons to Bots to shields to instant-killers with the exception of basic weaponry and in some rare cases some small explosives. Sometimes the UCCS' rules include the neccessity of [[Roleplay]]ing, but some again are just straight forward killing. Some advanced UCCS keep stats of the players such as kill count, death count, level etc.

When the player dies, unlike the LLCS, they will not be teleported back home. They will typically either "respawn" after a few minutes or some advanced systems will spawn a "spawn ball" which the player sits on and they will be able to respawn at a random location in the combat area with full health.
The exact effects of "death" depend on the particular UCCS in use.

It is important to note that many UCCS frown upon Defenses (shield, auto orbit), Advanced "guns", Large Scale Explosives (+5 m), Automated Turrets, orbit, lag bombs. Most UCCS simulations also recommend using High quality basic weaponry that do not cause Lag within the SIM.

A Few Notable User Created Combat Systems are [http://www.dcs2.org DCS] [http://www.bnjrps.com RPS]', 'CCS' 'RCS 'TCS', '[http://www.rpcombat.com RPCS]', 'Carnage Island Combat' 'XCS', 'Pure Combat', '[http://www.goodman-studios.biz/docs/battlezone-combat-system-2 BattleZone]', [http://BNWCS.org BNWCS], '[http://www.goodman-studios.biz/docs/gorean-ladder-meter Gorean Ladder Meter]', [http://www.urcs.info URCS] and HCS.

Because user-created combat systems generally depend on cooperation between scripted damage-dealing objects and scripted damage-sensing objects owned and worn by the player being damaged, there is a great potential for 'cheating', by writing scripts that appear to be obeying the rules of the system, but that in fact make the player very hard to damage, very good at dealing damage, or both. While most users of these combat systems enjoy competing legitimately, there are always a few who try to cheat, and different combat communities and combat systems have taken various approaches to detecting, preventing, or discouraging the cheaters.

== Engagement ==

In Second Life you have a vast array of weapons, combat vehicles, and defense mechanisms at your disposal, for a vast and sometimes baffling array of different and often incompatible combat systems.

When buying combat devices, it's important to be sure that they are compatible with
the combat system(s) in use in the area(s) where you plan to engage!
That Gorean sword may prove entirely useless against the band of Samurai
that you were planning to fight...

=== Weaponry ===

There are hundreds of [[weapon]]s in Second Life to choose from, compatible with various different combat systems. These weapons may be classified into several categories:

*Basic Guns - Guns that fire basic physical bullets. These are stopped by most quality shield systems.
*Advanced "Guns" - Guns that fire tracking, non-physical bullets. These can't be stopped by all but the most advanced (and expensive) defense systems.
*Explosives and "Nukes" - Self explanatory. These range from basic explosives to nukes that can kill everyone within 96m of the detonation point.
*Advanced Weapons - The most effective and powerful weapons often combine a number of different effects with sophisticated, often HUD-based controls. There are several quality HUD-based combat systems available, as described below.
*Robots and Turrets - These can be remote controlled, or set to fire on certain targets automatically.
*Annoyance weapons - Stuff like caging guns, anything that flings people into the air, and in general things that annoy rather than, or as well as, dealing combat-system damage. Considered "noobish" and frowned upon by experienced combat people.

For more information, see [[Weapon]].

=== Combat Vehicles ===

Sadly, the use of combat vehicles has reduced in second life. While they are very fun to fly, most vehicles will be "disrupted" by shields in actual combat situations, causing them to fly away. The only way to avoid this is to use non-physical vehicles.

=== Defense ===

Defense plays an important part in combat life. An undefended avatar can be obliterated by modern weaponry, ruining the fun for many new combat players. There are several ways to defend yourself in Second Life.

*Shields
*Offsim Bots
*The Phantom Glitch

Shields, for the most part, have become obsolete with todays weapons. Any shield that offers true 100% protection will be using the Phantom glitch, by means of an object that you sit on.

Offsim bots place your agent out of the current sim, while moving your camera so you see through the eyes of the bot. This technology works well against less sophisticated weapons, but it can and has been defeated.

The Phantom Glitch was discussed in detail earlier in this article. When your agent is phantom, bullets and "killprims" can't collide with you, making you invincible.

Note that many role-play areas disallow some defensive items.

== Non-Lethal Warfare ==

There are some weapons that can be used to disrupt or annoy another player without actually killing them.

*Orbiting is the term used when one player causes another player to be flung up insanely high in the air.
*People use "traps" to render a physical avatar unable to move.
*"Lag-Bombs" are devices of various kinds that eat up Sim resources and cause lag, thus slowing down the target Resident's activities.

While this kind on non-lethal device can (sometimes) be appropriate to delay or detour a legitimate opponent in a combat game, they are also commonly used by [[griefer]]s against unwilling victims in both combat and non-combat areas. They therefore tend to have a poor reputation, and to be looked down upon in many combat communities.

In the area of defense against pushes and pulls, most combatants use a device known as a "non-phys". A non-phys makes your avatar non-physical, in other words immune to being pushed or pulled. Period. A non-phys is basically a prim that you sit on, usually it becomes invisible once you sit, and you steer it around just like you are moving normally. When using a non-phys, you can pass through objects and walls.

If a non-phys is not handy and you are in danger of being orbited, just create a prim box and sit on it.

== Advanced Weapons ==

The most powerful weapons in Second Life enable you to simply say (or click) a command, such as "kill joh", resulting in the nearest person with joh in their name being killed instantly.
Because many of the currently popular weapons in this class use Heads-Up Displays ([[HUD]]s), they are sometimes referred to as "Combat HUDs".
They usually offer a substantial arsenal of attacks that you can deploy, other than the standard "kill person" command. These include orbiting, "burning" people, trapping, auto-killing, etc.

Some advanced weapons are designed primarily to deal damage and provide defense in a single combat system (either LLCS or a user-created system); others support two or more different combat systems in a single device.
Still others concentrate on the non-lethal actions and annoyances described above, and merge into the category of griefer and anti-griefer devices and away from legitimate combat.

So, what regions support combat? For the beginner, places like New Jessie, Core and Rausch are good ideas. They all cater to different tastes, so let's check them out.

===New Jessie - an Open Combat Zone===

New Jessie is an open combat sim which is unaffiliated with any military and where everyone is welcome. When you land here, you can set your home here so that during combat, you need not teleport back when you die. There is a healthy mix of close quarters combat in a small town there, as well as a pair of bunkers and a shorefront with barbed wire and tank spikes. On top of all of it, there is a hub featuring a weapons shop, many free weapons, and a combat museum detailing the history of early combat in Second Life. Full prim and currently undergoing a major rebuild, New Jessie is the premier sim for conventional combat in Second Life.

===Combat Core===

Do or Die ?

This SIM is full of danger.Combat (sandbox) Core (wipa 60min) LLCS damage.

You do not need the reason for attack in this SIM.
The use of arms that the guns and are all HUD is permitted to you.
Prohibition item:HUGE PRIM, chat spam and more spam.

Combat Core is a free combat sandbox that allows you to utilize varioius weapons to fight other combatants.
There is no unnecessary obstacles and object, which makes movement in Combat Core smooth and relatively lag free.
At Combat Core, you may also make your own weapon, and use them during combat. If you join the "Core Combat Crew" group at the front of the central tower, you will have access to home setting.
This will allow you to eliminate the time which must be used to TP from your home to the combat sandbox if you get killed.
All are free to join the "Core Combat Crew" group. Enjoy exciting and efficient combat simulation at Combat Core!

===Public LLCS combat areas===

Some of the most popular public LLCS combat areas are Rausch, Blue Base, and Red Base. These three sims are free-for-all sandboxes. There is a "safe zone" in the Rausch sandbox where you can't be attacked. It is usually surrounded by big yellow markers, and people have a tendency to gather in this area. (Please note that the "bases" are not really "bases" for anyone. They are free-for-all maps.)

The difference between Rausch and other combat sims is that Rausch is a public sandbox region, as opposed to a private combat sim. Anything is allowed here, so you're very likely to be killed before you know what hit you - although it also means you can kill others the same way.

The fastest way to find these regions is to type "combat" into the places search.

There are also many other regions & groups specifically for combat or military roleplay, which are running the LLCS damage system, among these are:

== User-Created Combat Systems (UCCS) ==

User-created combat systems do not use the built-in LLCS (and for this reason are sometimes called "safezone" combat systems), but instead use scripted objects both to track and to deal damage.

This type of combat system can be used in any area that allows scripts to run. Usually these systems require the player to wear a "tag" or a "HUD" in order to play. This monitors your health, and various other stats, varying among the combat systems.

These systems usually come with their own sets of rules that disallow the use of anything from advanced weapons to Bots to shields to instant-killers with the exception of basic weaponry and in some rare cases some small explosives. Sometimes the UCCS' rules include the neccessity of [[Roleplay]]ing, but some again are just straight forward killing. Some advanced UCCS keep stats of the players such as kill count, death count, level etc.

When the player dies, unlike the LLCS, they will not be teleported back home. They will typically either "respawn" after a few minutes or some advanced systems will spawn a "spawn ball" which the player sits on and they will be able to respawn at a random location in the combat area with full health.
The exact effects of "death" depend on the particular UCCS in use.

It is important to note that many UCCS frown upon Defenses (shield, auto orbit), Advanced "guns", Large Scale Explosives (+5 m), Automated Turrets, orbit, lag bombs. Most UCCS simulations also recommend using High quality basic weaponry that do not cause Lag within the SIM.

A Few Notable User Created Combat Systems are [http://www.dcs2.org DCS] [http://www.bnjrps.com RPS]', 'CCS' 'RCS 'TCS', '[http://www.rpcombat.com RPCS]', 'Carnage Island Combat' 'XCS', 'Pure Combat', '[http://www.goodman-studios.biz/docs/battlezone-combat-system-2 BattleZone]', [http://BNWCS.org BNWCS], '[http://www.goodman-studios.biz/docs/gorean-ladder-meter Gorean Ladder Meter]', [http://www.urcs.info URCS] and HCS.

Because user-created combat systems generally depend on cooperation between scripted damage-dealing objects and scripted damage-sensing objects owned and worn by the player being damaged, there is a great potential for 'cheating', by writing scripts that appear to be obeying the rules of the system, but that in fact make the player very hard to damage, very good at dealing damage, or both. While most users of these combat systems enjoy competing legitimately, there are always a few who try to cheat, and different combat communities and combat systems have taken various approaches to detecting, preventing, or discouraging the cheaters.

== Engagement ==

In Second Life you have a vast array of weapons, combat vehicles, and defense mechanisms at your disposal, for a vast and sometimes baffling array of different and often incompatible combat systems.

When buying combat devices, it's important to be sure that they are compatible with
the combat system(s) in use in the area(s) where you plan to engage!
That Gorean sword may prove entirely useless against the band of Samurai
that you were planning to fight...

=== Weaponry ===

There are hundreds of [[weapon]]s in Second Life to choose from, compatible with various different combat systems. These weapons may be classified into several categories:

*Basic Guns - Guns that fire basic physical bullets. These are stopped by most quality shield systems.
*Advanced "Guns" - Guns that fire tracking, non-physical bullets. These can't be stopped by all but the most advanced (and expensive) defense systems.
*Explosives and "Nukes" - Self explanatory. These range from basic explosives to nukes that can kill everyone within 96m of the detonation point.
*Advanced Weapons - The most effective and powerful weapons often combine a number of different effects with sophisticated, often HUD-based controls. There are several quality HUD-based combat systems available, as described below.
*Robots and Turrets - These can be remote controlled, or set to fire on certain targets automatically.
*Annoyance weapons - Stuff like caging guns, anything that flings people into the air, and in general things that annoy rather than, or as well as, dealing combat-system damage. Considered "noobish" and frowned upon by experienced combat people.

For more information, see [[Weapon]].

=== Combat Vehicles ===

Sadly, the use of combat vehicles has reduced in second life. While they are very fun to fly, most vehicles will be "disrupted" by shields in actual combat situations, causing them to fly away. The only way to avoid this is to use non-physical vehicles.

=== Defense ===

Defense plays an important part in combat life. An undefended avatar can be obliterated by modern weaponry, ruining the fun for many new combat players. There are several ways to defend yourself in Second Life.

*Shields
*Offsim Bots
*The Phantom Glitch

Shields, for the most part, have become obsolete with todays weapons. Any shield that offers true 100% protection will be using the Phantom glitch, by means of an object that you sit on.

Offsim bots place your agent out of the current sim, while moving your camera so you see through the eyes of the bot. This technology works well against less sophisticated weapons, but it can and has been defeated.

The Phantom Glitch was discussed in detail earlier in this article. When your agent is phantom, bullets and "killprims" can't collide with you, making you invincible.

Note that many role-play areas disallow some defensive items.

== Non-Lethal Warfare ==

There are some weapons that can be used to disrupt or annoy another player without actually killing them.

*Orbiting is the term used when one player causes another player to be flung up insanely high in the air.
*People use "traps" to render a physical avatar unable to move.
*"Lag-Bombs" are devices of various kinds that eat up Sim resources and cause lag, thus slowing down the target Resident's activities.

While this kind on non-lethal device can (sometimes) be appropriate to delay or detour a legitimate opponent in a combat game, they are also commonly used by [[griefer]]s against unwilling victims in both combat and non-combat areas. They therefore tend to have a poor reputation, and to be looked down upon in many combat communities.

In the area of defense against pushes and pulls, most combatants use a device known as a "non-phys". A non-phys makes your avatar non-physical, in other words immune to being pushed or pulled. Period. A non-phys is basically a prim that you sit on, usually it becomes invisible once you sit, and you steer it around just like you are moving normally. When using a non-phys, you can pass through objects and walls.

If a non-phys is not handy and you are in danger of being orbited, just create a prim box and sit on it.

== Advanced Weapons ==

The most powerful weapons in Second Life enable you to simply say (or click) a command, such as "kill joh", resulting in the nearest person with joh in their name being killed instantly.
Because many of the currently popular weapons in this class use Heads-Up Displays ([[HUD]]s), they are sometimes referred to as "Combat HUDs".
They usually offer a substantial arsenal of attacks that you can deploy, other than the standard "kill person" command. These include orbiting, "burning" people, trapping, auto-killing, etc.

Some advanced weapons are designed primarily to deal damage and provide defense in a single combat system (either LLCS or a user-created system); others support two or more different combat systems in a single device.
Still others concentrate on the non-lethal actions and annoyances described above, and merge into the category of griefer and anti-griefer devices and away from legitimate combat.
