WorldViz User Forum - Mainview head connection

and on the other machine

Code:

head = avatar.getBone('Bip01 Head')

head.lock()

def onNetwork(e):

    head.setEuler(e.euler, viz.AVATAR_WORLD)

I tried that and I repeatedly get a few errors:

Code:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "Vizard16356785347376.py", line 51, in onNetwork

    person1.setPosition(e.pos)

AttributeError: 'NetworkEvent' object has no attribute 'pos'

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "Vizard16356785347376.py", line 53, in onNetwork

    head.setEuler(e.euler, viz.AVATAR_WORLD)

AttributeError: 'NetworkEvent' object has no attribute 'euler'

My code is as follows; the beginning only has a few notes for me to get started and to work on. :

Code:

#This demo is for testing online interactions between two players.

#The players will spawn up and be able to see each other's avatars.

#Both players will be able to select an avatar by a dropdown menu

#similar to the one in quest.viz. 

#A chat will be enabled, the color of the inbox text will be light blue,

#and the color of the outbox text will be darker blue.

#The chat will reside on the right side of the screen. The dropdown menu

#will also be able to hide or show the chat by selecting the option

#similar again in quest.viz.

#I want to have it be a co-operative mission, where one person will talk

#to the patient and the other will be able to get supplies and hand them

#to the first person.

#Names are also something to look into. Maybe in the future,

#when you spawn up, there will be a floating name above your character.

#The prefix "Dr. " is desirable in the names.
