LSL Feature Request |
| The described function does not exist. This article is a feature request. |
Examples
vector position_to_point_at;
vector my_pos;
vector direction;
position_to_point_at = [get position of some object];
my_pos = llGetPos();
direction = position_to_point_at - my_pos;
Notes
This should be called from within an attachment and from no other place. Ideally it would throw out the Z component of the direction vector. Since the old llPointAt() function is deprecated and can't be re-enabled by the community until the server code is opened up, I wanted to propose that LL add a function with this prototype. This should be a one-shot function that does not hold the avatar in the specified direction permanently, but works once and once only.
Animations can not duplicate this functionality, as when an animation is complete the avatar returns to its previous position and orientation.
----
It isn't that it has been deprecated, it just was never enabled. I should probably append that to the function description.
