Summary

Function: vector llGetPos( );

Returns a vector that is the the position of the task in region coordinates

Caveats

  • When called from the root of an attachment, returns the wearer's position. When called in any child prim, always returns that prim's region position.

Examples

<lsl> default {

   touch_start(integer total_number)
   {
       // When touched, check the position of
       // the object, save it to "position",
       // then convert it into a string and
       // say it.
       vector position = llGetPos();
       llSay(0, (string)position);
   }

}</lsl><lsl> default {

   on_rez(integer param)
   {
       // Adding .x .y or .z after the vector name can be used to get the float value of just that axis.
       vector pos = llGetPos();
       float Z = pos.z; // <--- Like this.
       if(Z > 500.0)
       llOwnerSay("Oooh! I'm up high!");
   }
