Scripting Your World: The Official Guide to Second Life® Scripting

SENSING THE WORLD

The ability to sense avatars and objects is a very important technique in creating interesting interactions. Sensors

allow you to monitor who is visiting your land, to cause lights to turn on automatically and doors to open, and to

create attention-grabbing animations as objects interact with each other. In a forest you need bees that pollinate

flowers and deer that startle and run away. In a city slum you need rats that run out of dark alleys and police cars

that drive past on patrol. In a store you need greeters that say hello, lights that turn on, and doors that open.
