This same constant will later be used with llGetDetectedType().
This constant has a different name from NPC to avoid possible conflict with future LSL changes.
This constant has a different value to try and avoid unnecessary conflict with future constants that may use the same value.
Using the 'NPC' constant with llSensor() will remain valid but is deprecated.
This allows NPCs to be sensed as agents by LSL sensors rather than as a specific NPC type (which is currently an OpenSimulator-only extension).
Wiki doc on this and other recent NPC functions will follow soon
This will be documented soon. Options can currently be
OS_NPC_CREATE_OWNED - creates a 'creator owned' avatar that will only respond to osNpc* functions made by scripts owned by the npc creator
OS_NPC_NOT_OWNED - creates an avatar which will respond to any osNpc* functions that a caller has permission to make (through the usual OSSL permission mechanisms).
options is being added to provide better scope for future extensibility without having to add more functions
The original non-options osNpcCreate() function will continue to exist.
This makes something like osNpcSit(npc, llGetKey(), OS_NPC_IMMEDIATE) now become
osNpcSit(npc, llGetKey(), OS_NPC_SIT_NOW);
This is why it's in development :)
Format is osNpcSit(<npc-uuid>, <target-uuid>, OS_NPC_SIT_IMMEDIATE)
e.g. osNpcSit(npc, llGetKey(), OS_NPC_SIT_IMMEDIATE);
At the moment, sit only succeeds if the part has a sit target set.
NPC immediately sits on the target even if miles away - they do not walk up to it.
This method is in development - it may change so please don't trust it yet.
Standing will follow shortly since that's kind of important once you're sitting :)
Default for this function is now not to automatically land.
This allows better control by scripts when an avatar is going to be landing on a prim rather than the ground.
Stopping the avatar involves faking a collision, to avoid the pid controller making it overshoot.
A better approach would be to gradually slow the avatar as we near the target
I haven't been able to test this since the viewer won't parse the llCastRay() function. Maybe some activation cap is missing. Could wait until it is activated by default in the viewer.
implement the display names functionality as such, but it allows scripts
that are display name aware to function as if the display name were implemented
and set to the avatar name.
