How can I do a new setup for a same primitive ?

2013-02-24T08:05:49+00:00

You must first understand where are saved the setup parameters. To avoid notecards the parameters are saved in the floating text of the primitive which is affected by the setup. This floating text is set with alpha to 0 to not be apparent. When you do a new setup the script is looking for existing setup in the build, it's important to :

know the index of the system and the new setup to create
avoid to delete an existing setup

So if you want to do a new setup for a primitive you must first delete the floating text of this primitive. As it is not easy to do I've made 2 scripts :

rub : to delete all existing setup (floating text) in a linkset
rub one prim : to delete existing setup (floating text) in the primitive where you put this script

But there is a little disadvantage in deleting only 1 setup because systems and setups and indexed and a new system or setup will look at the max existing number, ignoring the holes. So in extreme situations you risk to reach the maximum (10 systems and 10 setups for each system), in this case the best way is to delete all setups.

How far works the chat command ?

When you say something in the public chat in SL the range is 20 meters. But you can also shout and the range is 100 meters in this case. When you use the command /70door to get the menu of your door you must know these ranges to act correctly.

Which version must I get ?

2013-02-23T10:34:57+00:00

There is 2 versions :

private version : it's for personal use, all scripts are only copy.
pro version : it's for sellers who want to include the system in their stuff. The scripts for the setups are only copy, but those to include in products are also transfer.

Can axis be perpendiculars ?

2013-02-23T10:32:10+00:00

No, axis in a same setup must be parallels. If you need another position you must do another setup.

How many systems can I have ?

2013-02-23T10:30:00+00:00

In a linkset you can have up to 10 systems (each system can have 10 setups, each setup can have 5 linked articulated axis). The first system you create as number 0, the second one number 1 and so on till number 9.

The axis is too small !

The axis you get in the package is just an example, you can adjust its scale as you want to make it useful. For example you can make it longer to extend it beyond the build, or larger to keep an access to it.
