Content Scripting Python Local Teleport

From RexWiki

Preface

This page shows how to create a script which can be used for local teleports.

To use this script:

1. Make sure server is down
2. Add the python class from below to "\rexserver\ScriptEngines\PythonScript\Samples" folder to a file named sampleteleportlocal.py
3. Open "\rexserver\ScriptEngines\PythonScript\Samples\__init__.py" file and add sampleteleportlocal.py to the end of the list
4. Start servers
5. Create a prim and define "sampleteleportlocal.Teleport" for it's Class Name.
6. Add to Rex tab-> Data the correct parameters (see below). Remember to press the Set button below the Data to set it.
7. Stop editing the prim.
8. Touch the primitive to teleport.

Note about the script implementation: The reason why avatar is forced to flying mode for a short time during the local teleport is so that the avatar won't start moving fast towards the previous position. This is a bug in the rex 0.4 which is avoided using the described workaround.

Rex data

The following text is a sample for Rex tab->Data.

112
135
27

Parameter descriptions line by line are as follows:

• Line 1: X coordinate
• Line 2: Y coordinate
• Line 3: Z coordinate

Python script

The following python script should be added to a file named sampleteleportlocal.py.

import rxactor
import rxavatar
import sys
import clr

asm = clr.LoadAssemblyByName('OpenSim.Region.ScriptEngine.Common')
Vector3 = asm.OpenSim.Region.ScriptEngine.Common.LSL_Types.Vector3

class Teleport(rxactor.Actor):
    def GetScriptClassName():
        return "sampleteleportlocal.Teleport"

    def EventCreated(self):
        super(self.__class__,self).EventCreated()
        print "sampleteleportlocal.Teleport"
        self.MyAvatars = []
        self.SetValues()

    def EventTouch(self,vAvatar):
        self.SetValues()
        self.MyAvatars.insert(0,vAvatar)
        vAvatar.SetWalkDisabled(True)
        vAvatar.DoLocalTeleport(self.TeleportDest)
        self.SetTimer(0.2,False)

    def EventTimer(self):
        while len(self.MyAvatars) > 0:
            TempAvatar = self.MyAvatars.pop(0)
            TempAvatar.SetWalkDisabled(False)

    def SetValues(self):
        # Parse rex prim data separated by any white space character
        myfreedata = self.rexGetPrimFreeData()
        paramlistlines = myfreedata.splitlines()
        self.TeleportDest = Vector3(float(paramlistlines[0]),float(paramlistlines[1]),float(paramlistlines[2]))
