With more reading, I think the follow is a better solution:
https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/BUG-20027
instead of calling a new function.
I'd image that it will work as follow:
-
Run your bone translation animation in a loop in low priority to put bones into proper positions. llStartAnimation(reset4myRig)
-
Use llStopAnimation(reset4myRig) such that the rig will restore back to the original positions before.
This approach is better as it does not require to worry about the case of sending the reset to all other viewers. All other viewers just have to play the animations and stop play the animations as it is current doing with the enhancement suggested in 20027.
How would you like the feature to work?
This is for the record from one of those content creation campfire meetings, requesting this to be logged.
The feature request is to be able to reset skeleton programmatically. The use case for this is:
Why is this feature important to you? How would it benefit the community?
Without this capability, customer of that rigged mesh usually has to reset skeleton manually from the viewer menu. And that only work from the customer viewer, others will see this avatar in strange deformed shape.
I do not know enough to present all benefits, please perhaps leave this open for a while such that people can comment and discuss. I am especially worried bone translation only get displayed properly on one user viewer and not on others and that reset works the same. So the API may have to figure out a way to make sure that everyone see the same shape.
