Build Rezzer Instructions

~~ Build Packer: Rezzer Instructions ~~ By Arth Karas, August 2008

Congratulations! You have a build that will construct itself for you using Build Packer.

HOW TO USE IT
==============================================

0. Get this Help note card. (You already did that! Well done.)

1. Drag the main Object you received from your inventory to the ground near where you want the finished build to be.

2. Select "Rez!" from the pop-up menu. Wait while the entire structure rezzes in a pile, then moves into position.

3. When you move or rotate the main Object, the is a moment's pause and the build moves to match it. Move the Main Object to put the build exactly where you want it.

4. Got the placement perfect? Now, "Freeze - Disconnect" the build. Moving the main Object no longer changes the others. It deactivates touch menu and float text, too.

5. Enjoy your build. You can use, take, delete, move or rotate any part of the build in the usual way without changing the other parts now.

6. You can pack up your build into Build Rezzer easily when you need to. Detailed instructions are below.

=========================================================

BUILD REZZER MENU CHOICES AND DESCRIPTIONS
==================================
~Help~ (Gives this card)
~Rez!~ and position the packed build. (reports if there us nothing to rez.)
~De-rez~ this build. (Asks to confirm:)
~~Delete Build~ will remove rezzed parts, but not this main Object nor (no copy) parts.
~Freeze~ my build. (Asks to confirm one of two options.)
~~All Done~ removes all Build Packer scripts nearby. This cannot be undone.
~~Disconnect~ leaves scripts present, but not active. This can be undone.

After a ~Freeze~, parts will not follow the main Object. The main Object no longer gives menus. Prims and other scripts will remain as they are.


UNDOING "FREEZE-DISCONNECT"
=======================================================
~ Reset the Build Packer Rezzer Script in the main Object.
Two ways to do that and get the controls back:
a) Right Click the main Object. Open More and Contents tab. Click and open the Build Packer Rezzer Script. Click the "Reset" button. You are in business again. Close the edit window
b) Right click>Edit the main Object. In your SecondLife menu, choose Tools>Reset Scripts in Selection. (This way is easier to do, but it could mess up other scripts in the main Object.)

STORING A (no copy) BUILD
======================================================
1) if you used "Freeze-Disconnect", undo that.
2) Leave the Build Rezzer main Object out for now.
3) Take all the other parts into your inventory.
4) Edit your Main Object, open MORE and the CONTENT tab
5) Drag the parts from your inventory into the prim contents.
6) It will work like new now. Take, store, transfer, or Use as you wish.
