thank you very much Molly, I changed that in the script and I'll give it a try tomorrow:-)

it's not my own script, and I'm totally not familiar with scripting. I would be very thankful if anyone could show me where to change or adapt this script so I don't get that error anymore 🙂

I have a full perm tracking script, that I would like to use to have a spotlight follow a specific avatar. I only run into the issue that I get the script error message " llDialog: button labels must be 24 or fewer characters long" when a specific avatar with a long name is around. here below the script. I tried to find a workaround on this forum, but I'm totally not familiar with scripting, and I have no clue where to changfe things so the LLDialog button would shorten the name. So I'm hoping anyone can offer me the solution for it. //Formatted Sensor Dialog script by Evil Fool //Modified by blazed Undercity //Now its got a use, i modified to allow owner to do stuff to the ppl that are in the sensor's range integer followTarget = TRUE; float endAlpha =1.0; float startAlpha = 1.0; integer effectFlags=0; integer gOwnerOnly = FALSE; integer gChann = 952; //make your OWN unique channel to be sure your not on someone else's. integer gStride = 9; list names; list keys; integer gPos = 0; key tReq; key texture = "3c8ec327-0bc2-a823-891f-b5650e51936e"; dialog(key id) { integer nTop = gPos + gStride - 1; list buttons = llList2List(names, gPos, nTop); string msg = llDumpList2String(buttons, "\n"); while(llGetListLength(buttons) % 3 != 0) { buttons = llListInsertList(buttons , [" "], gStride); } if (gPos >= gStride) { buttons += ["PREVIOUS"]; } if (nTop - 1 < llGetListLength(names)) { buttons += ["NEXT"]; } llDialog(id, "Targets in Range: \n \n" + msg, ["END","Myself"] + buttons, gChann); } default { state_entry() { llListen(gChann, "", NULL_KEY, ""); } touch_start(integer num_times) { if ( ( gOwnerOnly == TRUE && llDetectedKey(0) == llGetOwner() ) || gOwnerOnly == FALSE) {tReq = llDetectedKey(0); llSensor("", NULL_KEY, AGENT, 96.0, PI); } } no_sensor() {key id = llGetOwner(); llDialog(id,"To Follow a target, you and the bot must be within 96 meters of your desired target.", ["Myself","NoThanks"], gChann); } sensor(integer num_detected) { names = []; gPos = 0; integer i; for (i = 0; i < num_detected; i++) { names = names + llDetectedName(i); } keys = []; integer k; for (k = 0; k < num_detected; k++) { keys = keys + llDetectedKey(k); } dialog(tReq); } ///This script handles 16 keys & names associated with the dialog buttons.
