Summary
Function: string llGetGender( key avatar );REQUEST | Function ID |
0.0 | Forced Delay |
0.0 | Energy |
Returns a string the gender of an agent located in the same region the script is running in.
• key | avatar | – | agent UUID |
Specification
Note that this feature was added under a different name, see OBJECT_BODY_SHAPE_TYPE.
string GetGender(key avatar)
{
float gender = llList2Float(llGetObjectDetails(avatar, [OBJECT_BODY_SHAPE_TYPE]), 0)
// In practice this is only expected to return -1.0, 0.0 or 1.0
if (gender < 0.0) return ""; // agent not found
if (gender == 0.0) return "female";
if (gender < 0.5) return "somewhat feminine";
if (gender == 0.5) return "androgynous";
if (gender < 1.0) return "somewhat masculine";
return "male";
}
Caveats
- Works only for agents recently located in the same region the script is running in.
- Grid-wide GetGender could be provided via a dataserver call.
Examples
Notes
To avoid confusing agent and avatar: It's gender of the avatar, not the user's RL sex.
Very useful for some special kind of products like poseballs and animations, also for attaching or detaching some body parts and access rules in some regions.
Sounds useful indeed, but should probably be agent data you can fetch with llRequestAgentData.
