Problem... Scripting... Need help.

[THEEVILSQUIRREL Chronowire]

Ok so I have two object which use channels to apply textures over. prim A sends to prim b, but if another person has a copy of prim b, if someone applies prim a, it applies the texture to both copies. I need the script to apply only to the owner of the object, and not to anyone else who may have the prim in the same space.

Thank you GREATLY in advance for help.

In the receiving script check that both prims have same owner, skip the message if not

:smileysurprised::smileyvery-happy:

See llGetOwnerKey() and llGetOwner()

Ok what I did to check, I have a copy rezzed, my wife has a copy rezzed, I set down the applier, hoping it would only effect mine, and clicked it which it changes the texture of the prim. It also changed on my wifes copy. She has mod rights to my stuff so don't know if that is a factor or not. 

[Rolig Loon]

listen (integer channel, string name, key id, string message){    if (llGetOwnerKey(id) == llGetOwner())    {        // Accept message    }    else    {        //Don't    }}

 

[THEEVILSQUIRREL Chronowire]

default{    state_entry()    {        llListen (-4444,"","","");    }    listen (integer channel, string name, key id, string message){    if (llGetOwnerKey(id) == llGetOwner())    {        llSetTexture(msg,ALL_SIDES);    }        }}

 would this look about right?

[Rolig Loon]

It certainly looks right (Well, except for the fact that "msg" is undefined.).  The easiest way to find out is to try it.  Be bold.

[THEEVILSQUIRREL Chronowire]

ok so the script savedok, went back to the applier scriptto check it since in SL upon touch it didn't apply the texture to the prim. Do I need to add the get owner part to it as well?

[THEEVILSQUIRREL Chronowire]

//inside prim to be textured

 

default{ state_entry() { llListen (-4444,"","",""); } listen (integer channel, string name, key id, string message){ if (llGetOwnerKey(id) == llGetOwner()) { llSetTexture("msg",ALL_SIDES); } }}//Applier:

 

string texture_0 = "UUID KEY NUMBER HERE"; //your texture Key here

 

default

{

state_entry()

{

llListen(-4444,"","",""); //channel -1000

}

 

touch_start(integer total_number)

{

llRegionSay(-4444, texture_0);

llRemoveInventory(llGetScriptName());

}

 

 

}

 Give me a minute to go back in world and get the applier script, I got dinged before I could copy it.

[THEEVILSQUIRREL Chronowire]

so would the "msg" be "msg = texture_0"

 

[Rolig Loon]

No.  I assume that the texture name is the message that is being sent to your object, right?  It will be received in the listen event and called "message", since that's the label you chose.  The variable "msg" does not exist.  If you want to apply the texture named in "message", write llSetTexture(message,ALL_SIDES);

[THEEVILSQUIRREL Chronowire]

ok will try this. Thank you for your help. This has been driving me batty all day

[THEEVILSQUIRREL Chronowire]

Still is not applying the texture to the prim.

[Rolig Loon]

Your script is receiving the texture UUID as a string.  Try applying it as (key)message.

[THEEVILSQUIRREL Chronowire]

default{    state_entry()    {        llListen (-4444,"","","");    }    listen (integer channel, string name, key id, key message){    if (llGetOwnerKey(id) == llGetOwner())    {        llSetTexture(message,ALL_SIDES);    }        }}

 before the second key I get a syntax error, how do I fix that or is it to go where id is?

[Rolig Loon]

llSetTexture((key)message,ALL_SIDES);

No guarantees.

[THEEVILSQUIRREL Chronowire]

That didn't work either.

 

I was looking around for possible scripts to compare what I am trying to do. I found Kimms remote texture script which is close, so basically I have a working formula to transfer the texture by UUID, to a linked prim. But when I do if two people in the region have the same linked prim object down one person's remote changes the texture on both instead of the owner's linked object. I need it to not do that. Since the remotes are what is going to be fore sale.

Now you are back where you started, are you not?
To me this last post is the same as the first post, so read the answers in the thread once more:)

:smileysurprised::smileyvery-happy:

[Dora Gustafson]

Try this:

default{    state_entry()    {        llListen (-4444,"","","");    }    listen (integer channel, string name, key id, string message)    {        if (llGetOwnerKey(id) == llGetOwner())        {            llSetTexture((key)message,ALL_SIDES);        }    }}

The last variable type for the listen event handler must be "string" not "key"

:smileysurprised::smileyvery-happy:

Ok, this looks exactly like the last code I tried before logging off to come on the forum. I will copy this one and see if it might have been a space or something missed. Be back in a bit with the outcome.

[THEEVILSQUIRREL Chronowire]

Ok tried this, reset the scripts, still hasn't changed the texture of the prim. Even changed key to string, no effect. in the llstetexture line.

[Rolig Loon]

This is dreadfully simple.  I suppose I should ask two very basic questions:

1. "Is the receiving script in your object running?" (Look for the Running check box when you have your editor open.)

2. Same thing for the applier script plus "Is the script even there?"  Remember that that applier script deletes itself when you click on it.

[Innula Zenovka]

Try this, which I know works because I just tested it.

//In the transmitterinteger chan =-4444;key texture = "d522c891-f467-4c07-684a-1d7b6b074f03"; //tartan of the Independent State of Caledondefault{    state_entry()    {            }    touch_start(integer total_number)    {        if(llDetectedKey(0)==llGetOwner()){          llRegionSay(chan,(string)texture);           }    }}

 and 

//in the receiverinteger chan =-4444;default{    state_entry()    {       llListen(chan,"","","");    }    listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string message){                llOwnerSay(message); //so you know the script is actually hearing the message                 if(llGetOwnerKey(id)==llGetOwner()){            llSetTexture((key)message,ALL_SIDES);        }    }}

Rez two prims, drop one script in one prim and the other in the other, and touch the "transmitter" prim.    If it works, then compare yours with my working version, to see where yours differs.

If it doesn't work, then, as Rolig says, check that the script is running, that you're somewhere you're allowed to run scripts and so on.

[THEEVILSQUIRREL Chronowire]

I managed to get it to work. the script unbeknownst was off. Which is weird cause I never set off.  Don't know how that happened. And it worked with a second user having the object on the round. Didn't apply to both, so good show. Thank you all so much. This was driving me crazy. I was set to release this yesterday, then check it and had to set back release. Sorry if I have inconveinanced any of you, and thank you for the direction on it.

[Rolig Loon]

If you save a script that has errors, it will automatically be switched to Not Running.  Always check after you have made changes to be sure that you have set it to Running again.  :smileywink:

[THEEVILSQUIRREL Chronowire]

Ok, I was unaware of that. Luckily it was for one script and not the whole lot. If I may be so bold to ask what does mono do?
