My little experiments with LSL include:
- Wand
- This is a magician's wand that glows in different ways each time the user touches it
- Top Hat
- Magician's hat that with an associated menu generates a grass platform, Borg style dodecahedron or living 'hub' (I'm always tweaking improvements)
- The dodecahedron was a neat challenge to get the 3D mathematics right, it took me ages to get the rotations right. With a prim count of 12 it makes a pretty efficient instant room.
- Builder's chair
- The builder's chair is much like the freebie Sky Platform as it will transport you to a desired height (to 4,000m) and generate various living hubs or domes and some basic furniture (inc. GMT clock) ((I'm using the term Builder in the sense that Larry Niven would))
