Question on how to tweak script to give specific inventory item

[Pixels Sideways]

Hola!

I have an object with scripted faces and when the faces are touched do a variety of different things. 

I have two LM's in my object's inventory.  My Home #1  and  My Home #2

When face four is touched, it should give out the LM for My Home #1

When face one is touched, it should give out the inventory LM for My Home #2

This is what I currently have in my script for face one which is a line of generic script command to give  out a LM in the inventory and chat.

        else if (face == 1) {
            string oldName = llGetObjectName();
            llSetObjectName(":");
             llGiveInventory(llDetectedKey(0), llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_LANDMARK", 0));
            llInstantMessage(llDetectedKey(0), "Check your inventory for your LM to My Home #2");

            llSetObjectName(oldName);
            llSleep(1);

This doesn't work because it will only give the first LM in the inventory which is My Home #1.

How do I have the Give inventory for Landmark items command give a specific LM?

Thank you!

Hey Pixels,

On this line llGiveInventory(llDetectedKey(0), llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_LANDMARK", 0));, you can replace the by the actual name of the landmark. This would give you 

 

llGiveInventory(llDetectedKey(0), "My Home #2");

 

Otherwise, you can change the parameter 2 of the llGetInventoryName to 1 to give you the second landmark in the inventory of the object.

 

Let me know if it helps!

Thank you Luke.  That worked perfectly!

I have an object that will contain hundreds of landmarks (LM).  I will have notecards (NC) associated with some of these landmarks. 

I have an algorithm that decides which LM to give to an avatar that touches the object, and that is working, which results in a string that is the name of the landmark.

I then give the LM to the avatar using llGiveInventory(avatar_key, string_inventory_name), which successfully gives the LM to the Avatar.   

I would like to give a NC same name as the LM, and then give both to the avatar.  How do I get llGiveInventory(avatar_key, string_inventory_name) to give the NC also?

llGiveInventory(avatar_key, string_inventory_name) gives one item, and then terminates.

Oh, silly me.  The NC gets " 1" at the end, and I add that to the string.  I get it now.  Sorry.

You cannot have two things with exactly the same name in an object's inventory. if you attempt to make that happen one of the objects gets renamed. (even if it is no-mod, even if the name is at the length limit.)

This test keeps the debug shouts away:

        string s_NC_name = gs_LM + " 1"; // add the " 1" on the end of the LM name
        if (llGetInventoryType(s_NC_name) == INVENTORY_NOTECARD) llGiveInventory(agent_id, (s_NC_name));  // test for NC existence and give if exists
