Sitting Regions

[Tsar Hoikas]

Aloys posted over on the alcugs forum about implementing "Sitting Regions" into the plugin, so I've looked into them a slight bit and would like to share what I learned. (Note: I have only examined half of the data I want to, so bear with my guesswork. Note 2: I am reffering to the Kemo benches. I did my research on Bench06 incase you're wondering.)

Okay, we have a SceneObject for our bench obviously . You also have a SceneObject with a CoordinateInterface that acts as the "region" for clicking. The region SceneObject then refrences ObjectInVolumeDetector(s). (In the kemo benches I saw that three were refrenced; I have no idea why.) In our ObjectInVolumeDetector we have a plKeyRef (UruObjectRef) that links to a LogicModifier. This is where I start getting messed up as I don't have (or am too lazy to dig out) documents for the LogicModBase and ConditionalObject which are used/refrenced by LogicModifier. Reguardless, I can see plKeyRefs to:

• SittingModifer
• ObjectInBoxConditionalObject
• ActivatorConditionalObject (This is for the hotspot)
• AnimationEventConditionalObject (Makes the avatar sit on click?)

I don't have info for many of those types.

I wanted to post this to see if you guys aggree with my guesswork. I'll finish this up when I get back home tomorrow (today); I've got to go and do some work

I don't know whether your guesswork so far is correct, but thanks for giving it a shot.

Well, it all makes sense *gasp* (nothing in plasma makes sense ). I'll be looking at some more data in a bit, and I'll post all of my findings.
