Living in a skybox and wish you had a sea-front? Well now you can, and with tides too! 'Tides' is a script that will give your prim sea tidal motion on a sloping beach, synchronised with the Region Time. High tide will therefore occur when the Sun or Moon are at their highest point, and low tides in between.
The script and other files are supplied in a basic prim sea, but you can transfer them to your own constructions. A megaprim to fit your coastline will give a better result than the one supplied, but you may also want to add rolling waves as illustrated.
'Tides' is customised by editing a notecard where you specify the mean position of your sea and its tidal amplitude. 'Tides' will also play a cycle of wave sounds (5 included). You can remove these and/or add your own. The script will update automatically.
The tide script sends data to the Tidal Info noticeboard which displays the current state of the tide, and a life-belt station is supplied for your visitor safety!
