Evil Stacy Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 I'm having issues with a buggy script, can't seem to figure out what is wrong. I need someone who can look it over and see if they can spot any problems. Not posting the script here, so please IM me inworld asap. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffee Pancake Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Posting it here is free ... getting someone to look over it in world, well that's work and I for one would expect to be paid. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qie Niangao Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 It's pretty clear this thread doesn't belong in the LSL Scripting forum but it's less clear where it does belong, unless the OP is looking to pay for help in which case it goes in the Employment forum. If they're just hoping somebody will take a look at a script for free—honestly, I might be tempted, but only on the understanding that I'll never make any representation whatsoever as to non-disclosure. Still, this isn't the right place to solicit such assistance. I guess volunteering is a kind of "employment" maybe? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolig Loon Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 It's also very vague. What kind of script? What's wrong with it? Who wrote it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love Zhaoying Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 We promise to be nice, if you post it here, nobody will judge you just because the script is buggy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, that's the purpose of this forum. It's a place for LSL scripters to trade ideas and wish lists, show off clever solutions to vexing problems, and moan about things that they are finding troublesome in their own scripts. We don't usually post entire scripts for each other, but we frequently post snippets where we sense a problem or where we want to illustrate a potential solution to one. So, if you have a problem with a script that you are writing, try to isolate the problem. Post the part of the script where it seems to occur, and then ask a specific question ("This variable seems to always end up having the wrong value. I think it's something in this part of the script, but I can't see it. Here's what I tried already...") . We won't rewrite a script for you, but sometimes an extra dozen pairs of eyes can see whatever you've missed so far. Of course, if it really will take a lot of rewriting, Qie is right: you probably need to consider posting in the InWorld Employment forum to hire somebody to do the work. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollymews Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 i would suggest to place the OP (as wrote) in Wanted. Hi, I want someone to help me with my script if no response comes from this then next step, place OP in Inworld Employment. Hi, I want to pay someone to debug my script 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where you post to find something that you want to buy. If you want to pay someone to do work for you, you post in InWorld Employment. Look at the heading for the forum: Wanted Are you searching for something you just can't find? Post it here! Inworld Employment Get an inworld job or hire a Resident.

Mollymews Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 sometimes people don't want to (or can't) pay, in which case is best to not post in Inworld Employment and say that the pay is 0 also sometimes people post in Wanted that they are putting a project team together, listing the skills wanted for the team. In OP's case then (as wrote) they wanting a team of two. Them and a scripter to work on what appears to be a single script project some people are quite happy to work for free, when the project is interesting for them me personally I only work on open source projects, but I am not everybody. Others only work on projects for pay. I am ok with this also, as I don't subscribe to the view that all your stuffs wants to be free, even if I am happy for my stuffs to be free in some circumstances. Your stuff is not my stuff. Is your stuff to do with as you like, and I am good with that at times I end up in conversations with people like teachers and employees of charities and social services providers who want me to work on stuff for them for free. In the think of the children way. And I say to them, if you believe that all computery people's stuffs wants to be free then I think that all your employee salary wants to be free as well, and can give the computery person some of your salary, or a piece of your seminar speaking fees or book sales. Which quite often ends the conversation 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
