GetLinkPrimitiveParams

Summary

Summary: llGetPrimitiveParams, llGetLinkPrimitiveParams

These functions are very similar; the difference is the latter takes a link parameter, and does not cause the script to sleep.

PRIM_* flags can be broken into three categories, face flags, prim flags, and object flags.

• Supplying a prim or object flag will return that flag's attributes.
• Face flags require the user to also supply a side parameter.

llGetPrimitiveParams

Function: list llGetPrimitiveParams( list params );

0.2	Forced Delay
10.0	Energy

Returns attribute values (a list) for the attributes requested in the params list.

• list

params

–

PRIM_* flags

If you are planning to use PRIM_LINK_TARGET consider using llGetLinkPrimitiveParams instead.

Caveats

• This function causes the script to sleep for 0.2 seconds.
• link needs to be either an actual link number or a link constants that equate to a single prim, such as LINK_ROOT and LINK_THIS.
  • LINK_SET, LINK_ALL_CHILDREN and LINK_ALL_OTHERS will not work.

llGetLinkPrimitiveParams

llGetLinkPrimitiveParams

Function: list llGetLinkPrimitiveParams( integer link, list params );

0.0	Forced Delay
10.0	Energy

Identical to llGetPrimitiveParams except that it acts on the prim specified by the link number given.
Returns attribute values (a list) for the attributes requested in the params list for the link.

This parameter's arguments are GLTF overrides. Warning: Setting an argument to the empty string ("") will clear the respective override. GLTF texture transforms are always overrides, so setting them to the empty string ("") will clear them. See this example for a workaround. The SL team is open to feedback on LSL improvements for GLTF. gltf_alpha_mode Flags V Description PRIM_GLTF_ALPHA_MODE_OPAQUE 0 Ignore the alpha value and render the material as opaque. PRIM_GLTF_ALPHA_MODE_BLEND 1 Render the material with transparency determined by the alpha value. Blending is done in linear color space. As is the case for Blinn-Phong as well, this mode suffers from depth sorting and performance issues. Use alpha mask instead when possible. PRIM_GLTF_ALPHA_MODE_MASK 2 Render the material as fully opaque where the alpha value is greater than the alpha cutoff, and otherwise render the material as fully transparent.
[ PRIM_GLTF_NORMAL, integer face ]	45	[ string texture, vector repeats, vector offsets, float rotation_in_radians ]					This parameter's arguments are GLTF overrides. Warning: Setting an argument to the empty string ("") will clear the respective override. GLTF texture transforms are always overrides, so setting them to the empty string ("") will clear them. See this example for a workaround. The SL team is open to feedback on LSL improvements for GLTF.
[ PRIM_GLTF_METALLIC_ROUGHNESS, integer face ]	47	[ string texture, vector repeats, vector offsets, float rotation_in_radians, float metallic_factor, float roughness_factor ]					This parameter's arguments are GLTF overrides. Warning: Setting an argument to the empty string ("") will clear the respective override. GLTF texture transforms are always overrides, so setting them to the empty string ("") will clear them. See this example for a workaround. The SL team is open to feedback on LSL improvements for GLTF.
[ PRIM_GLTF_EMISSIVE, integer face ]	46	[ string texture, vector repeats, vector offsets, float rotation_in_radians, vector emissive_tint ]					emissive_tint param accepts color in Linear space - use llsRGB2Linear to convert regular LSL color into Linear space. This parameter's arguments are GLTF overrides. Warning: Setting an argument to the empty string ("") will clear the respective override. GLTF texture transforms are always overrides, so setting them to the empty string ("") will clear them. See this example for a workaround. The SL team is open to feedback on LSL improvements for GLTF.
[ PRIM_SIT_FLAGS ]	50	[ integer flags ]					Gets the sit flags currently set on this prim. Flag Description SIT_FLAG_SIT_TARGET 0x1 Read-only flag to indicate whether the link has a sit target. Use llSitTarget, llLinkSitTarget, or PRIM_SIT_TARGET to disable or enable this flag. Use llGetLinkSitFlags, or llGetLinkPrimitiveParams with PRIM_SIT_FLAGS to read this flag. SIT_FLAG_ALLOW_UNSIT 0x2 Allow an avatar to manually unsit from a sit target. Only applies to agents who had been seated via an LSL script. See llSitOnLink. SIT_FLAG_SCRIPTED_ONLY 0x4 Only allow scripted sits on this sit target. SIT_FLAG_NO_COLLIDE 0x10 Disable the avatar's collision volume when they are seated on this sit target. SIT_FLAG_NO_DAMAGE 0x20 Do not distribute damage to agents sitting on this sit target.

[ PRIM_HEALTH ]	52	[ float health ]					Gets the health of a prim

Caveats

• The prim description is limited to 127 bytes; any string longer then that will be truncated. This truncation does not always happen when the attribute is set or read.
• The pipe character '|' and the newline character '\n' are not legal in a prim's description. They will be replaced with '?'.^[3]
• Note that when people have "Hover Tips on All Objects" selected in the viewer's "View" menu, they'll see the object description pop-up for any object under their mouse pointer. For that reason, it is good practice to only set human-friendly information in the description, e.g. keys and such.
• When an attached object is detached, changes made by script to the name and description (of the root prim) of the attachment will be lost. While the object is attached the name and description can be changed but it will not be reflected in inventory. This caveat does not apply to child prims.
• repeats is not only used to get the number of repeats but the sign of the individual components indicate if "Flip" is set.
• With texture as with llGetTexture, NULL_KEY is returned when the owner does not have full permissions to the object and the texture is not in the prim's inventory.
• In the default texture mapping mode the texture repeats units are in texture repeats per face. In the planar texture mapping mode the texture repeats units are in texture repeats per half meter. This is in contrast to the in-world editing tool, in which the planar texture scaling units are repeats per meter.
• With render_material as with llGetRenderMaterial, NULL_KEY is returned when the owner does not have full permissions to the object and the material is not in the prim's inventory.
• In the default texture mapping mode the texture repeats units are in texture repeats per face. In the planar texture mapping mode the texture repeats units are in texture repeats per half meter. This is in contrast to the in-world editing tool, in which the planar texture scaling units are repeats per meter.
• Do not rely on Floating Text as a storage medium; it is neither secure nor finalized.
  • Floating text has been altered in past server updates, breaking existing content; future changes may occur.
  • Even "invisible"^[4] floating text is transmitted to the client.
    • It can be viewed by anyone with a client that is capable of rendering text that is supposed to be invisible.
    • The network packets that contain the text can be sniffed and the text read.
• top_size and client values are different, the ranges do not line up, conversion is required. This simple equation can be used: answer = 1.0 - value. See top_size Explained for more information.
• The value of map is NULL_KEY when the owner does not have full permissions to the object and the map asset is not in the prim's inventory.
• If map is missing from the prim's inventory and it is not a UUID or it is not a texture then an error is shouted on DEBUG_CHANNEL.
• If map is a UUID then there are no new asset permissions consequences for the object.
  • The resulting object develops no new usage restrictions that might have occurred if the asset had been placed in the prims inventory.
• position is always in region coordinates, even if the prim is a child or the root prim of an attachment.
• rot is always the global rotation, even if the prim is a child or the root prim of an attachment.
• PRIM_ROTATION incorrectly reports the avatars rotation when called on the root of an attached object. Use PRIM_ROT_LOCAL for the root prim instead.
• PRIM_OMEGA on nonphysical objects, and child prims of physical objects, is only a client side effect; the object or prim will collide as non-moving geometry.
• PRIM_OMEGA cannot be used on avatars sitting on the object. It will emit the error message "PRIM_OMEGA disallowed on agent".
• If PRIM_OMEGA does not appear to be working, make sure that that Develop > Network > Velocity Interpolate Objects is enabled on the viewer.
• In the parameters returned by llGetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_OMEGA]), the vector is normalized, and the spinrate is multiplied by the magnitude of the original vector.
• repeats is not only used to get the number of repeats but the sign of the individual components indicate if "Flip" is set.
• With texture as with llGetTexture, NULL_KEY is returned when the owner does not have full permissions to the object and the texture is not in the prim's inventory.
• If face indicates a face that exists but does not contain a material, the PRIM_NORMAL return is [ NULL_KEY, <1,1,0>, ZERO_VECTOR, 0.0 ]
• In the default texture mapping mode the texture repeats units are in texture repeats per face. In the planar texture mapping mode the texture repeats units are in texture repeats per half meter. This is in contrast to the in-world editing tool, in which the planar texture scaling units are repeats per meter.
• repeats is not only used to get the number of repeats but the sign of the individual components indicate if "Flip" is set.
• With texture as with llGetTexture, NULL_KEY is returned when the owner does not have full permissions to the object and the texture is not in the prim's inventory.
• If face indicates a face that exists but does not contain a material, the PRIM_SPECULAR return is [ NULL_KEY, <1,1,0>, ZERO_VECTOR, 0.0 <1,1,1>, 51, 0]
• In the default texture mapping mode the texture repeats units are in texture repeats per face. In the planar texture mapping mode the texture repeats units are in texture repeats per half meter. This is in contrast to the in-world editing tool, in which the planar texture scaling units are repeats per meter.
• If PRIM_LINK_TARGET's link_target describes a seated avatar...
  • Flags not explicitly mentioned have obvious values.
  • PRIM_NAME will return the avatar's legacy name.
  • PRIM_DESC will return "".
  • PRIM_TYPE will return [PRIM_TYPE_BOX, PRIM_HOLE_DEFAULT, <0., 1., 0.>, 0., ZERO_VECTOR, <1., 1., 0.>, ZERO_VECTOR]
  • PRIM_SLICE will return [<0., 1., 0.>]
  • PRIM_MATERIAL will return PRIM_MATERIAL_FLESH.
  • PRIM_TEMP_ON_REZ will return FALSE.
  • PRIM_PHANTOM will return FALSE.
  • PRIM_SIZE will return llGetAgentSize(llGetLinkKey(link)).
  • PRIM_TEXT will return ["", ZERO_VECTOR, 1.].
  • PRIM_POINT_LIGHT will return [FALSE, ZERO_VECTOR, 0., 0., 0.].
  • PRIM_FLEXIBLE will return [FALSE, 0, 0., 0., 0., 0., ZERO_VECTOR].
  • PRIM_COLOR, PRIM_TEXTURE, PRIM_GLOW, PRIM_FULLBRIGHT, PRIM_BUMP_SHINY, PRIM_TEXGEN
    • will return [] and report a script error to the owner: "texture info cannot be accessed for avatars."
• If face is ALL_SIDES then the flag works on all sides.
• If face indicates a face that does not exist the flag returns nothing.
• PRIM_LINK_TARGET is a special parameter which can be inserted to perform actions on multiple prims on the linkset with one call.
  • Passing 0 (zero) as the link number in the formal link parameter on a linked object will return an empty list.
• The legacy value of PRIM_TYPE, 1 (which is often referred to as PRIM_TYPE_LEGACY), is not supported by this function as a flag^[6].

Examples

To test whether an object is a point light source, and if so get its parameters:

default

    state_entry()
    {
        list    params  = llGetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_POINT_LIGHT]);
        integer isLight = llList2Integer(params, 0);

        string msg = "Object is ";

        if (!isLight) // read as "not isLight"
            msg += "not a light source.";
        else
        {
            msg += "a point light source.";

        //  llList2String will automatically typecast

            msg += "\n\tColour    = " + llList2String(params, 1);
            msg += "\n\tIntensity = " + llList2String(params, 2);

Notes

Link Numbers

Each prim that makes up an object has an address, a link number. To access a specific prim in the object, the prim's link number must be known. In addition to prims having link numbers, avatars seated upon the object do as well.

• If an object consists of only one prim, and there are no avatars seated upon it, the (root) prim's link number is zero.
• However, if the object is made up of multiple prims or there is an avatar seated upon the object, the root prim's link number is one.

When an avatar sits on an object, it is added to the end of the link set and will have the largest link number. In addition to this, while an avatar is seated upon an object, the object is unable to link or unlink prims without unseating all avatars first.

Counting Prims & Avatars

There are two functions of interest when trying to find the number of prims and avatars on an object.

• llGetNumberOfPrims() - Returns the number of prims and seated avatars.
• llGetObjectPrimCount(llGetKey()) - Returns only the number of prims in the object but will return zero for attachments.

integer GetPrimCount() { //always returns only the number of prims
    if(llGetAttached())//Is it attached?
        return llGetNumberOfPrims();//returns avatars and prims but attachments can't be sat on.
    return llGetObjectPrimCount(llGetKey());//returns only prims but won't work on attachments.
}

See llGetNumberOfPrims for more about counting prims and avatars.

Errata

If a script located in a child prim erroneously attempts to access link 0, it will get or set the property of the linkset's root prim. This bug (BUG-5049) is preserved for broken legacy scripts.

Deep Notes

PRIM_TYPE top_size and client taper conversion

	Range[5]	Top Tapered	No Tapering	Bottom Tapered
Client	[-1, 1]	1.0	0.0	-1.0
PRIM_TYPE	[0, 2]	0.0	1.0	2.0
LEGACY	[0, 1]	0.0	1.0	NA
Client < 1.11	[0, 1]	0.0	1.0	NA

top_size Explained

When the original PRIM_TYPE interface was retired (PRIM_TYPE_LEGACY, SL 1.5), the new PRIM_TYPE interface did not yet support tapering of the bottom of the prim, this feature wasn't added until SL 1.11 (two years later). Instead of retiring the new PRIM_TYPE when it was added, the range of top_size was enlarged; meanwhile in the client they redefined the parameter and it's values. This redefinition and range enlargement resulted in two interfaces that did the same thing but achieved it through different values. Meanwhile PRIM_TYPE_LEGACY's interface was not updated to support tapering of the bottom of the prim. Consequently all three interfaces have different ranges, making for a rather nasty caveat.

Footnotes

1. ^ LINK_ROOT does not work on single prim objects. Unless there is an avatar sitting on the object.
2. ^ When LL deprecated this flag they stripped it of it's name, however they did not remove the functionality. To aid in documenting the functionality, the value was given a new name in the documentation only. That is why PRIM_TYPE_LEGACY is not recognized by the compiler.
3. ^ The pipe character historically has been used to separate fields in the serialized version of inventory. The field is not multi-line so the newline character holds no meaning in this context.
4. ^ Floating text with an alpha set to 0.0 is rendered "invisible"
5. ^ The ranges in this article are written in Interval Notation.
6. ^ llGetPrimitiveParams came after PRIM_TYPE_LEGACY was deprecated.
