function
Function syntax
rotation llList2Rot(
  1. list src,// Source list containing the element of interest.
  2. integer index// Zero-based index of the entry.
);
Returns
rotation
Energy
10

Returns the rotation value at index in the list src. Returns ZERO_ROTATION if the index is out of bounds or if the value cannot be type-cast.

Returns a rotation that is at index in src.

How to use
rotation result = llList2Rot([], 0);

Caveats

Section titled “Caveats”
  • When used to typecast from a string it will result in a ZERO_ROTATION
  • A true typecast will solve this: (rotation)llList2String(src, index);
  • Unfortunately, if it was already a rotation type, using llList2String will cause the decimal values to be truncated to six decimal places.
