DEMO Flying Dragonette

DEMO WILL DISAPPEAR AFTER A MINUTE OR TWO
- Dragonette flies around your parcel
- Or it can be worn as an attachment!
- Loves avatars, finds them and orbits them
- Chaotic behavior, never repeats, not random
- Dialog box to control behaviors
- Ignores, avoids follows or bumps avatars
- Ignores or avoids objects
- Change to one of 16 million colors!
- Flies over: the parcel it is in,
--OR the owner's parcels
--OR any parcel with permission enabled
--OR 3 meters around you while worn
- Can detect and fly over group owned land
- Low prim, scripted non-physical object

Thanks for your interest in the Dragonette! You can see one in action at the Ocean Engineering Store, Find links to my stores at http://magic.kayaker.net

The Dragonette LOVES avatars and will zoom over to fly around you! When there are several avatars nearby, it will dance in circles between you trying to decide who to play with next! It will do acrobatic turns when changing direction. It is an AEtheral creature that normally can fly through the aether, walls and avatars. It is very inquisitive and when nobody is around it will explore every nook and cranny of your property. It will not go under ground or in the water and it stays within a narrow range of altitude near where it was rezzed.

This critter will fly everywhere on your property, but never repeat the same path! A chaotic algorithm makes it behave in complex ways without being random. From the dialog you can set it to any one of 16,777,216 colors. By default it will detect the edges of your property and stay inside them. It will not fly outside of the sim boundaries. It will not fly more than 5 meters below or 15 meters above where it was last rezzed. You can change the Dragonette to one of 3 boundary modes: It will stay inside the parcel it is in, it will stay inside the owner's parcels (if you own more than one and they are adjacent), or it will fly everywhere in the sim that it finds friendly permissions set. It needs "Object Entry" to cross a parcel boundary and "Run Scripts". The Dragonette is smart enough to turn away from land that does not have these permissions. These land permissions can be set for all residents, or for a group if the owner has that group active at the time the Dragonette is rezzed. The Dragonette has four avatar modes, it will ignore, avoid, follow, or bump them. In bump mode it will playfully push avatars around! The Dragonette is normally a phantom object and flies through obstacles in its path. However, it has an "object avoid" mode where it attempts to detect objects in its path and turn away. The combination of a sculpted 3D prim, particle spines and complex behavior makes this Dragonette incredibly interesting for an only 4 prims!
