Grand permission of a object in a object

[Anton Hammerthall]

I have a problem with Requesting Permissions. Let me explain my self.

I have a plane that is carrying a ejection seat. When you press a button the ejection seat will be placed in the world and attach to the player. The problem is that is requests permission to attach when the seat is rezzed. Is it possible to request permission when the player get in the plane?

My skills with LSL are not very good but i can program in C so i understand the basics. I can post some scrips if needed :P

Certainly, if you rez the seat as soon as the person gets into the plane.  It's the script in the ejection seat that is asking permission to attach, and it can't ask until it exists.  So, sit down >> rez seat >> get permission >> attach seat >> wait for eject command >> get eject command >> eject.

The problem with this solution is that you wil get a lot of seats in your inventory. If there is a solution to fix that this might be the best solution.

if it's done once in advance, and the user (who has just given permissions) drops it back into the object then all is well, those permissions are retained by the object in contents, and will be applied to any copies rezzed from it (which can then die normally avoiding clutter)

Don't you have that same problem with your current method? Unless I'm missing something, you'll get extra seats in inventory that way too.   Why not make the seat temp_on_rez?  It won't vanish if you attach it before the garbage collector gets it (about a minute).  When you finally detach it, it won't go to inventory. It will simply poof out of existence.

Just out of curiosity, didn't we have this same conversation about a year and a half ago? You were working on an ejection seat with a parachute, and I think we talked through the inventory question in this forum then.  Unless I'm having deja vu .........

Yes I was working on this a long time ago, then i quit second life for a while and now i have more experience with programming and tried finish my plane

Setting the temporary variable doenst work, it still gets in you inventory.

It does?   It doesn't do that for me.  When my temp rez objects die, they stay dead.   They don't get resurrected in my inventory.

Even when you detach them, as opposed to drop them on the ground?   I can't get that to work.

whoops you're right... I wasn't thinking straight.... if it attaches it'll clutter, no way around that.... yet

Is RLV an option here, so it can attach from inventory and then just detach again as required?

I suggested RLV to the OP in world, and also suggested just dropping the temp_on_rez  seat manually instead of trying to find a way to detach and kill it by script.  Either of those sounds like a decent option to me.

the other workaround that i've used before is to have the vehicle wait for a period after rezzing, and if it doesn't receive a message from an attachment, offer the attachment to the av. the attachment rezzes invisible, and sends a message to the vehicle when attached, and only becomes visible when the vehicle sends it a message ( like when it ejects you)... and then it can go invisible again after some event (like ground collision) occurs.

with this method the attachment is never duplicated unless the avatar doesn't attach it, or accept the attachment, and the vehicle can use the lack of a message to tell if the ejection function will work as expected and decide whether or not to allow it's use.

Instead of rezzing a seat in it not possible to use llBreakLink and Attach the seat. Now is the seat the prim. I have no idea if it will work but i will try some things Is it then possible to set permissions to attach before even eject the seat?

[Anton Hammerthall]

This is the script i made:

default{    state_entry()    {         llSitTarget(<0.0,0.0,-0.6>, <0,-0.2,0,1>);    }        touch(integer num_detected)    {            if(llGetPermissions() & PERMISSION_CHANGE_LINKS)            {                llBreakLink(LINK_THIS);                //llOwnerSay("Delinked from prim");            }            //llOwnerSay("Touched");            if(llGetPermissions() & PERMISSION_ATTACH)            {                llAttachToAvatar(ATTACH_PELVIS); //if permission is set then attach                //llOwnerSay("Attach to avatar");            }    }        changed(integer change)    {        if(change &  CHANGED_LINK)        {            key av = llAvatarOnSitTarget();            if (av)             {                llRequestPermissions(llAvatarOnSitTarget(), PERMISSION_CHANGE_LINKS  | PERMISSION_ATTACH | PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION);                   }        }    }        run_time_permissions(integer perm)    {        if(perm & PERMISSION_ATTACH)        {             llOwnerSay("Attach set"); //for testing purposes        }        if(perm & PERMISSION_CHANGE_LINKS)        {             llOwnerSay("Link set"); //for testing purposes        }    }        attach(key Av)    {        integer perm = llGetPermissions();        if(Av)        {            llSetStatus(STATUS_PHYSICS , TRUE);             llStopAnimation("stand");            llStartAnimation("sit");            llOwnerSay("Attached"); //for testing purposes            llPushObject(Av, <0,0,50>, ZERO_VECTOR, FALSE);        }        else        {            llStopAnimation("sit"); //on drop/detach stop animation and die()            llStartAnimation("stand");            llDie();         }    }}

 It delinks the seat and attach to the pilot. The permissions wil be ask when the pilot gets in the seat
