Cann!bal Clever Football Version 1.01

This football / soccer ball uses the latest Second Life feature called Pathfinding. This is a great ultra low lag technology that makes this ball a super fun gagdet for all areas! Who hasn't had this dream of a ball that comes back after shooting?

The ball rolls around within 20m of where it was rezzed. It avoids people and rolls around static and moving obstacles. It seems the ball doesn't really appreciate mankind. This soccer ball is so clever - it has decided that it does not want to be a football. Who wants to get kicked anyway? When someone tries to kick it, it will try to get away. When someone manages to kick the ball, it can get quite angry.

When the ball gets angry, it might roll back to the person who kicked it and provokes them. This is super funny and random. Every once in a while the ball gets REAL angry and some surprising stuff might happen. This ball uses a unique AI engine coded by the Cann!bals. Many parameters are random or chance-based, so it doesn't get boring.

This ball is a great attraction for every beach, every store and generally all areas with a bit of space. People will run after the ball and try to get it, eventually they might end up playing soccer. Not only does this ball offer a new sports activity for your parcel, it also creates higher traffic numbers as it keeps people moving.

This ball is ultra low lag scripted. [2/2] running scripts. 80Kb consumed for 0.002851ms of cpu time. The rolling animation uses ZERO server (and net) time. A bit of physical and pathfinding lag will apply depending on the quality and traffic of your region. This product is best used on Linden terrain (ground terraform) and requires a region where dynamic pathfinding is enabled (which is the default for all regions on the grid). Pathfinding is still a new technology, so there might be bugs like the ball can get stuck. The ball will try to warp back to its original rez position when it gets off walkable land or when it decides that it can't continue with the path. This works very well! Should this ever not work then someone can just touch the ball and it will warp back. To have it roam elsewhere, simply re-rez the ball. The ball will check for updates on rez AND periodically! If this football sells, I promise there will be many funny feature updates - ofcourse for free!

When pathfinding got deployed in August 2012, all regions were auto-enabled. Some very few estate owners might have decided to disable pathfinding within the server console. When that is the case, the ball will tell you to contact them. If your landlord does not re-enable pathfinding for you, it might be about time to search for new land (how restrictive is this?). The ball is best used on Linden terrain. To be used in skyboxes and inside buildings, floor prims must be set as "Walkables" and the region needs to be rebaked by an estate manager. It's really easy. The creator of this product will assist creating a navmesh for L$1000 per case.

Disclaimer: This is a copy product. No refunds. You have read all of the requirements above. You can't blame me if the ball does not work because of a missing navmesh or because your estate owner decides to live in the past. So please don't review "the ball does not work" when it is the PLACE that does not work. I will flag and report such reviews and have them removed.
