llList2Vector

vector llList2Vector(list ListVariable, integer Index)

Copies the vector at Index in the list.

Returns the value at Index in the specified list. If Index describes a location not in the list, or the value cannot be type-cast to a vector, then ZERO_VECTOR is returned.

Parameters

ListVariable (list)
Index (integer)

Caveats

When used to typecast from a string, this function will result in a ZERO_VECTOR. A true typecast will solve this: (vector)llList2String(src, index)
- Unfortunately, if the value was already a vector type, using llList2String will cause the decimal values to be truncated to six decimal places.
- In any string representation of a vector such as llList2String(src, index) or (string)llList2Vector(src, index), spaces are automatically added after the commas. When received by a listen event, make sure NOT to parse by spaces.
