changed

Description

Event: changed( integer change ){ ; }

30	Event ID
	Delay

Various changes to the object/prim trigger this event.

• integer

change

–

bit field of CHANGED_* flags

Multiple changes can be represented in a single event, so use bitwise arithmetic.

Flag		Description	Scope
CHANGED_INVENTORY	0x001	Prim inventory has changed[1].	prim
CHANGED_COLOR	0x002	Prim color or alpha parameters have changed.	prim
CHANGED_SHAPE	0x004	Prim shape has changed.	prim
CHANGED_SCALE	0x008	Prim scale has changed.	prim
CHANGED_TEXTURE	0x010	Prim texture parameters have changed.	prim
CHANGED_LINK	0x020	The number of prims making up the object or avatars seated on the object have changed.	object
CHANGED_ALLOWED_DROP	0x040	A user other than the owner (or the owner if the object is no-mod) has added inventory to the prim.	prim
CHANGED_OWNER	0x080	The object has changed owners.	object
CHANGED_REGION	0x100	The object has changed region.	object
CHANGED_TELEPORT	0x200	The avatar to whom this object is attached has teleported.	object
CHANGED_REGION_START	0x400	The region this object is in has just come online.	region
CHANGED_MEDIA	0x800	Prim Media has changed.	prim
CHANGED_RENDER_MATERIAL	0x1000	Render Material has changed. Caveat: This parameter will be supported in the upcoming GLTF Materials project. Currently it will only work in supported testing areas with a supported test viewer.	prim

Caveats

• This event will trigger in any script using it (in its current running state) whether the script be in a child or root prim of a link_set. E.g. A changed event in a script in the wheel (child prim) of a car will trigger when any avatar sits on or stands from the seat (root prim) of that car.

   changed(integer change)
   {
       if(change & (CHANGED_OWNER

Notes

• Always test the value of change unless you want your script to act upon any change that triggers it.
  • New CHANGED_* flags, bugs and bug fixes could conceivably be added by LL at any time. Scripts should be written under the assumption that they will receive changed events not expected at the time or place of writing. For future proof scripts, use bitwise conditions as in the examples.
• See llGetOwner for a full discussion on " (change & CHANGED_OWNER) "
• If leaving a state from within a changed event that registers a change just before the state change, on return to that state the changed event will trigger. For example -

<lsl>default {

   changed(integer change)
   {
       if(change & CHANGED_LINK)
       {
           integer links = 0;
           if(llGetObjectPrimCount(llGetKey()) < (links = llGetNumberOfPrims()))
           {
               llUnSit(llGetLinkKey(links));
               state whatever;
           }
           else
           llOwnerSay("Some kind of linking or unlinking has changed me but, I am not being sat on.");
           // This will be chatted after returning to the default state.
       }
   }

} state whatever {

   state_entry()
   {
       llSetTimerEvent(10.0);
   }
   timer()
   {
       state default;
   }

}</lsl>

1. ^ CHANGED_INVENTORY won't be triggered if the inventory change was caused by a script function or a user taking advantage of llAllowInventoryDrop
