Articulated shetters

2013-02-22T10:37:15+00:00

First you must have a build with your primitives linked in close state :

These shetters are made with 4 primitives :

Rez an axis for the first primitive and put it just at the right place :

Rez another axis for the second primitive and put it just at the right place :

Drop the script setup in the build (root) :

You get this message :

So click on this primitive :

You get this message :

So click on this primitive :

You get this message :

Click on the first primitive (you can begin with the other one if you want). You get this menu (notice the color of the floating text) :

Click on buttons to get the correct rotation for the open state of your shetter (in my case I need 120°, I must save this value because I must use the same for the other shetter in order to get a good movement) :

Click on the second primitive and use again buttons to rotate it (100° in my case) :

Click on End button in the menu, your get this message :

Rez an axis for the second shetter and put it just at the right place :

Rez another axis for the second primitive and put it just at the right place :

Drop the script setup in the build (root) :

You get this menu :

As your second shetter must work with the first one it's the same system, so click on "Same system" button. You get this message :

So click on this primitive :

You get a new message :

So click on this primitive :

You get this message :

Click on the first primitive. You get this menu (notice the color of the floating text) :

Click on buttons to get the correct rotation for the open state of your shetter (in my case I need 120° as the first shetter) :

Click on the second primitive and use again buttons to rotate it (100° in my case) :

Click on End button in the menu, your get this message :

Now drop 2 scripts action and scripts command and access in one of the 4 primitives.

The setup is done and the shetters are working ! If you want the shetters to work on click (set range sensor to 0 to get click command with the menu you can access with /70door command) you must drop script clic in the inventory of the 3 others primitives (where there are no scripts) to get click function on them.

If you want to have sounds add sounds files (sound1 for close state and sound2 for open state).

Dome

2013-02-21T14:06:43+00:00

First you must have a build with your elements linked in close state.

The dome is composed with 4 elements (you could have up to 10 setups in a system):

Rez the axis for the first element and put it just at the right place (make it longer if you need) :

Drop the script setup in the build (root). You get this message :

So click on the element, you get a new message :

Click again on the element. You get this menu :

Click on buttons to get the correct rotation for the open state of your element (45° for me) :

Click on End button in the menu, your get this message :

Rez the axis for the second element and put it just at the right place :

Drop the script setup in the build (root). You get this menu :

As your second element must work with the first one it's the same system, so click on "Same system" button. You get this message :

So click on the element, you get a new message :

Click again on the element. You get this menu :

Click on buttons to get the correct rotation for the open state of your element (45° again for me) :

Click on End button in the menu, your get this message :

Use the same way for the 2 others elements (2 setups) to get this :

Now drop 4 scripts action and scripts command and access in one of the elements. The door go to close state :

The setup is done and the door is working ! If you want the door to work on click (with range sensor to 0 with the menu you can access with /70door command) you must drop script clic in the inventory of the others elements (where there are no scripts).

If you want to have sounds add sounds files (sound1 for close state and sound2 for open state).

Articulations

2013-02-21T13:11:04+00:00

You can make linked articulations for your doors. Lt's see an example.

First you must have a build all linked in close state (ok, it's not a door but you can use this system for any build that need rotations and 2 stable states) :

We want to rotate some elements to get this result for open state :

Rez an axis and put it just at the right place for the first element :

Rez another axis and put it just at the right place for the second element :

Rez another axis and put it just at the right place for the third element :

Drop the script setup in the build (root), you get this message :

So click on the primitive, this one :

You get a new message :

So click on the primitive, this one :

You get a new message :

So click on the primitive, this one :

You get this message :

Click again on the first primitive, you can see it's floating text (Link to axe_0) becoming red :

You get this menu :

Click on buttons to get the correct rotation for the open state :

You can see all the next elements moving to follow this first primitive. When you are happy with it, click on the second element (its floating text become red) :

Use the menu to rotate it as you want :

At last click on the third element (its floating text become red) :

Use the menu to rotate it as you want :

Click on End button in the menu, your get this message :

Now drop scripts action, command and access in one of the elements. The system go to close state :

The setup is done and the system is working ! If you want it to work on click set the sensor range to 0 (with the menu you can access with /70door command). You must add clic script in the 2 elements that have no scripts if you want to get the movement on a click on them. If you want to get the movement on click also for the return from open to close set the open temporisation to 0.

If you want to have sounds add sounds files (sound1 for close state and sound2 for open state) :

Circular door

2013-02-21T11:10:46+00:00

First you must have a build with your doors linked (must not be the root !) in close state :

My door is made with two primitives (half cylinders) :

Rez the axis for the first primitive and put it just at the right place :

Drop the script setup in the build (root) :

You get this message :

So click on the primitive (the right one in my case), you get a new message :

If your door is in closed state it's ok. Click again on the primitive. You get this menu :

Click on buttons to get the correct rotation for the open state of your door (in my case I need 65°, I must save this value because I must use the same for the other primitive in order to get a good movement), you see the primitive is now hidden :

Click on End button in the menu, your get this message :

Rez the axis for the second primitivre and put it just at the right place :

Drop the script setup in the build (root) :

You get this menu :

As your second primitive must work with the first one it's the same system, so click on "Same system" button. You get this message :

So click on the primitive, you get a new message :

If your door is in closed state it's ok. Click again on the primtive. You get this menu :

Click on buttons to get the correct rotation for the open state of your door (65° in my case) :

Click on End button in the menu, your get this message :

Now drop 2 scripts action and scripts command and access in one of the 2 primitives. In my case I cant get a primitive, but I can move the root to make them appear (the script action will put the primitives at their good place) :

So I can nom drop the scripts :

If you want to have sounds add sounds files (sound1 for close state and sound2 for open state) :

Two doors in a linkset

2013-02-20T13:50:15+00:00

First you must have a build with your doors linked in close state (for my example I have a simple door and a double door) :

Setup of the first door

Lets begin with the single door. Rez the axis and put it just at the right place :

Drop the script setup in the build (root) :

You get this message :

So click on the door, you get a new message :

If your door is in closed state it's ok. Click again on the door. You get this menu :

Click on buttons to get the correct rotation for the open state of your door :

Click on End button in the menu, your get this message :

The setup is done and this door.

Setup of the second door

Rez the axis for the first primitive of the second door and put it just at the right place :

Drop the script setup in the build (root) :

You get this menu :

You choose New system because it's a new door !

You get this message :

So click on the door, you get a new message :

If your door is in closed state it's ok. Click again on the door. You get this menu :

Click on buttons to get the correct rotation for the open state of your door :

Click on End button in the menu, your get this message :

Rez the axis for the second primtive of the second door and put it just at the right place :

You get this menu :

System 0 is the system for the first door, System 1 is the system for the second door, so we must choose System 1. You get this message :

So click on the door, you get a new message :

If your door is in closed state it's ok. Click again on the door. You get this menu :

Click on buttons to get the correct rotation for the open state of your door :

Click on End button in the menu, your get this message :

Configuration with independant doors

If you want your door to work independently put these scripts in first door :

And these scripts in one of the primitives of second door :

Now doors are working. You get menu for first door with /70door command in chat, and /71door for the second door.

If you want to have sounds add sounds files (sound1 for close state and sound2 for open state) :

If you want the second door to work on click (with range sensor to 0 with the menu) you must drop script clic in the inventory of the second primitive (where there are no scripts) :

Configuration with remote

You must add a linked primitive to create a remote :

Drop these 2 scripts in the remote :

Drop these scripts in the first door :

And these scripts in one of the primitives of second door :

Now doors are working. You get menu for the 2 doors with a click on the remote.

If you want to have sounds add sounds files (sound1 for close state and sound2 for open state) :

If you want the second door to work on click (with range sensor to 0) you must drop script clic in the inventory of the second primitive (where there are no scripts) :

Double door

2013-02-18T11:04:18+00:00

This is also an easy setup. First you must have a build with your doors linked (must not be the root !) in close state.

So click on the door, you get a new message :

If your door is in closed state it's ok. Click again on the door. You get this menu :

Click on buttons to get the correct rotation for the open state of your door :

Click on End button in the menu, your get this message :

Now drop 2 scripts action and scripts command and access in the door primitive of one of the two doors. The doors go to close state :

The setup is done and the doors are working ! If you want the doors to work on click (with range sensor to 0 with the menu you can access with /70door command) you must drop script clic in the inventory of the second door (where there are no scripts).

If you want to have sounds add sounds files (sound1 for close state and sound2 for open state) :

Simple door

2013-02-18T10:25:56+00:00

This is the easier setup. First you must have a build with your door linked (must not be the root !) in close state.

Rez the axis and put it just at the right place :
