Known issues

Avatar is tilted after standing up when Sit Point is tilted

When a sit point is at an angle other than horizontal to the floor, on standup the avatar will be stand at that angle. To fix: use the goto menu and visit another domain. teleport to a friend, or sit again in a horizontal chair.

Sit animation does not apply to an avatar using a different default animation

Animation that is applied before sitting is applied while in the chair and continues after standup.

Configurable variables in Script

• SHOW_PRESIT_OVERLAY_IN_HMD - Turn on/off "Face Forward Overlay" before sit in HMD
• CHAIR_OFFSET_RATIO - Used to calculate pin hip position. Adds CHAIR_OFFSET_RATIO * chair's y dimension to the y center of the seat.
