Follower Scripts - Full Perm Script Set - Floating Scripts - Floats Above User's Head




These scripts allow an object to follow an avatar by floating above their head as they move around. They can follow the owner, a group member that touches, or anyone that touches. They float above the user's head by default but can be edited to follow in relation to the avatar in other ways as well. See below for full list of features.
These scripts use non-physical movement and do not require physics to be on in your sim, and they will work at any elevation.
Scripts in this set can be used in your commercial products. Please do not resell or give away scripts on their own.
Scripts are all: Modify / Copy / Transfer

ABOUT SCRIPT:
This set includes four versions of the Follow Script. Three of these versions will go back to their "Home" position when finished, which is the location where they were before they started following. Objects will return home when a user logs out of object, teleports away, or goes offline.
You can adjust the timer between scans that update the object's placement, the offset in relation to avatar, and the range in which the object will scan for avatar. These settings are adjusted in the script itself, near the top.
Note: Objects using these scripts may not follow avatars across sim or parcel boundaries if land settings do not permit Object Entry or are set to a different group.
SCRIPT FEATURES:
• Includes four versions:
-Owner Version - Will follow object owner (simple version)
-Touch Version [Anyone] - Will follow whoever touches
-Touch Version [Group] - Follows group member that touches
-Link Message Version - For use with your own creations
• Configurable scan timer, scan range, and object offset
• Goes back to start position when finished
• Floats above user's head, (or wherever you set)
• Uses non-physical movement, so works at any elevation
