How do I give permission to a script?

[Haiku Quan]

When I try to restart my animation HUD I get an error message:

"Script trying to take controls from owner but PERMISSION_TAKE_CONTROLS permission not set!"

How do I set this permission so that the animation's script can run?

[Rolig Loon]

The script has to include code that specifically requests PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION and then triggers a run_time_permission event in which the animation is started. If the script was not written properly, or if the user has not granted permission, the animation may not run.  This is a common scripting error.  PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION is always granted automatically when the scripted object is worn or sat upon, but inexperienced scripters may sometimes either forget or ignore the fact that the script is still supposed to ask permission.  Under some circumstances, that omission can keep the animation from triggering.
