Summary

Function: vector llDetectedPos( integer number );

Returns a vector that is the position of detected object number.

• integer number

number does not support negative indexes. Returns <0.0, 0.0, 0.0> if number is not valid sensed object.

Caveats

  • If number is out of bounds the script continues to execute without an error message.
