if (msg2.Find("follow me") >=0)
{
/* if (msg2.Find("follow me") >=0) <FIGURE OUT HOW TO
RETRIEVE SESSION CO-ORDS> */
}

That's what I have so far =P

Can you help me here?

Thanks,

All you can do is store the coords for each session id when you get them in
your
aw_avatar_add and aw_avatar_change events in some kind of array or list,
and then
retrieve them using the session id as needed.

If you using a list instead of an array, you have no problesm with an
unpredicted increase in the avatar number, but since you can specify the
maximum number of avatars your're interested in, you can use an array pretty
save.

50 avatars is default, so a 50 entries sized array should be pretty safe :)

That would seem to take up extra memory, and an unpredicted overflow in
the size of the array would cause an access violation error . . .

Shouldn't there be a way to retrieve them by calling an SDK function,
Roland? How does the AW Client do it?

Here's a way to keep track of avatars in the area of your running instance.
I think this applies to what you're doing. It's a code snippet from Ed
Sumerfield's AWCPP wrapper.

#include <map>

using namespace std;

typedef struct {
AvatarThem *avatar; // this is an object with members for session,
position, etc.
void *context; // just space to store relevant info.
} StoreContent;

typedef map <int, StoreContent *, less<int> > AvatarStorage;

ya know, Faber, he may not understand the concept of a (linked) list :)

RTFM, Andon :)
