Summary

Function: llRemoteLoadScriptPin( key target, string name, integer pin, integer running, integer start_param );
3.0 Forced Delay
10.0 Energy

Copy script name into target and set to running with a start_param.

• key target prim UUID that is in the same region
• string name a script in the inventory of the prim this script is in
• integer pin Must match pin set by llSetRemoteScriptAccessPin
• integer running boolean, if the script is to be set as running.
• integer start_param value returned by llGetStartParameter in the target script.

Only works if the owner of the object containing this script can modify target.

Caveats

  • This function causes the script to sleep for 3.0 seconds.
  • If target is not owned by the same person, and name does not have transfer permissions, an error is shouted on DEBUG_CHANNEL.
  • If name permissions do not allow copy, the transfer fails and an error is shouted on DEBUG_CHANNEL.
  • If target is not in the same region an error is shouted on DEBUG_CHANNEL.
  • When scripts are copied or moved between inventories, their state does not survive the transfer. Memory, event queue and execution position are all discarded.
  • If name is missing from the prim's inventory or it is not a script then an error is shouted on DEBUG_CHANNEL.
  • If name is present in the target prim's inventory then it is silently replaced.
  • start_param only lasts until the script is reset.
  • If target is an attachment owned by a different user, regardless of object modify rights granted, this function will silently (bug?) fail.[1]
  • If pin fails to match, the error "Task ~Prim~ trying to illegally load script onto task ~Other_Prim~!" is shouted on DEBUG_CHANNEL. "~Prim~" and "~Other_Prim~" are substituted with the applicable prim names.
  • If target is the script's parent (target == llGetKey()) then "Unable to add item!" is shouted on DEBUG_CHANNEL.
  • If the object containing this script is deeded to a group, than script name needs transfer permissions; even if target is deeded to the same group.
  • When the script is set to run (with running, the running checkbox or llSetScriptState) state_entry will be queued.

Examples

<lsl>//Child Prim PIN setter integer PIN=1341134;

default { state_entry() {

       llOwnerSay(llGetObjectName()+" : "+(string)llGetKey()+" is ready to accept a describer script using the agreed upon PIN.");
       llSetRemoteScriptAccessPin(PIN);
   }
}</lsl>

Deep Notes

History

  • Added in 1.2.6
  • In SL 1.25.4 this function will not copy/move any script into an attachment unless the script is full perm. (SVC-3725)
  • SL 1.25.5 will allow this function to copy/move a script into an attachment so long as the target has matching (or more restrictive) copy and transfer permissions. (SVC-3738)

Footnotes

  1. ^ Attachments can only be modified by their owner.
