Just put this item on XStreetSL. There will be a formal launch event before it goes on sale in-world, but I wanted to let you guys know about this ASAP.
Holo (rezzing) vendor, designed to sell a variety of products while taking up only the prim allowance of one at a time. Rezzes products in-world one at a time, either on request or by cycling automatically through available products, and allows them to be purchased. Based on the highly rated single object rezzer. Features include:
- Menu-driven
- Auto-cycles through products if avatars are nearby, but not using it.
- Shuts down and de-rezzes product if no avatars are nearby, to reduce lag.
- Converts show items into mini-vendors, to simplify purchasing and increase sales.
- Interactive objects (furniture with pose balls, for example) are rezzed fully functional.
- Integrated notecard giver in mini-vendor.
- Can be used to sell scripts, textures, or anything else, while rezzing demos on demand.
- Notecard configuration
Operation
When an customer clicks the vendor, it “locks” it to them, and then brings up a dialog menu of products that can be rezzed. This menu is paged (so you can store as many objects as you like, up to the limits of script memory). Vendor control only passes from an customer when they leave the area, or another customer tries to use the vendor after the customer has been inactive for a while (duration configurable).
When an object is rezzed, the vendor announces its price in local chat, and will accept payments. If it’s paid (by any customer, not just the one it’s locked to), it will check the payment amount and then deliver the item to them. On touch, it brings up the menu for the customer to pick a different object to rezz. It also passes a copy of the object for sale, to the rezzed object, enabling it to act as a “mini vendor” for that one object. This makes it easier for the customer to find an object to pay, and so improves the chances of a successful transaction.
Left alone, the vendor goes into an inactive mode to reduce lag. If it detects customers nearby, but not interacting with it directly, it automatically cycles through its inventory of objects in case one appeals to a passing customer. If clicked on in this state, it locks to that avatar and offers them the rezz menu.
