Strange failure to respond to touching a prim

[Gregory McLeod]

This is an unusual event.

A prim with an embedded script responds to one avatar but not another.

The avatar getting the failure can build a new object put a script in it and it will respond to the appropriate touch_start event.

Now the prim which is failing to respond was created by another avatar but is supoposed to have no restrictions in it as to who it will respond to.

Is there any way an avatar can be prevented from getting a response from an object?

I have heard of a block list but can it do this?

[Dora Gustafson]

What way do you get the respond?
A chat respond can easily be selective
If the chat respond is for the owner, only the owner can see it

Yes, it could be that one avatar has blocked itself from getting chat from a specific object

I know you say that  "the prim which is failing to respond was created by another avatar but is supoposed to have no restrictions in it as to who it will respond to",  but I'd still like to see the script inside it, if that's possible, before commenting.

[Ron Khondji]

Maybe the one with problems has 'blocked' something or someone. 

[Gregory McLeod]

The response to the touching is supposed to be the rezzing of a Ball.

No ball is rezzed.

Thanks for the thought.

[Gregory McLeod]

I now have the scriot and there is no possibility that it should fail the script in response to a touch checks a state value which I know is set. And calls a function. The function does

llRezObject(gsBallName, llGetPos() + gvRezzOffset,gvRezVelocity, ZERO_ROTATION,1);

as others can do it it must be working OK but just not for the one avatar.

any more thoughts. 

[Gregory McLeod]

Now that sounds much more like it.

Can you be more specific, what is doing the blocking and how is it removed or stopped?

[Dora Gustafson]

See Blocking for more

See this thread if you want to unblock a person or object

Just out of curiosity the agent that it will not rezz for, they not wearing an RLV device?

 

[Qie Niangao]

You're sure the ball doesn't rez? Or is it that this particular avatar doesn't see a ball rez?

There's no such thing, AFAIK, as an object blocking an avatar. An avatar can block an object, or a script can selectively ignore an avatar, but there's no way an object can be set to block a particular avatar's events and prevent them from reaching a script in the object.

PROBLEM SOLVED

The creator of the prim that wouldn't rezz a ball for me replaced the prim and it now works.

Don't ask what was different he swears there were no changes. But....

Thanks for all the help

It is possible they were editing a script or removed one and a legacy was left, I have had that problem before myself. I found that  putting the finished scripts in a new prim gives no problems. TYPO
