Please note: This product has been generally superceeded by the Visitor Metrics product, you may wish to read about that (linked below).
A fairly straight forward product designed to help reduce administrative overheads while enforcing a minimum height requirement on your parcel.
The product is a simple invisible barrier which lets avatars over a certain (configurable) height through, and blocks others with a warning message.
Usage is simple, when you first rez the item it will be ready to be configured, or if you wish to reconfigure an item you can reset scripts to start over (right click on the item, build menu, scripts, reset scripts in object).
1) When rezzed the object will prompt you for the height limit in meters, say this into local chat near the object (e.g. "1.8" for 1m 80).
2) The barrier will confirm the height and ask you to position/size it. Right click on the object and hit edit, use the move and size tools to place the barrier covering the entrance you wish to protect. For best results give the barrier some thickness (say half a meter).
3) Once positioned, click the barrier, it will confirm the action and go invisible, it is now armed and ready for testing!
As an advanced feature, inside the object is a singular notecard which can be edited to customise the message it sends to users it doesn't let through.
As always, remember no security product in SL is perfect, users can bypass these sorts of barriers by rezzing prims, sitting on things and moving them, sitting on something on the other side of the barrier, or just plain old teleport attachments/viewer features/etc, however this should help reduce some of the workload associated with running a height restricted sim (and I know what that's like, I did a stint of that!)
