Summary

Function: llCreateLink( key target, integer parent );

Attempt to link the script's object with target.

• key target A prim in the same region.
• integer parent If FALSE, then target becomes the root. If TRUE, then the script's object becomes the root.

To run this function the script must request the PERMISSION_CHANGE_LINKS permission with llRequestPermissions and it must be granted by the owner. target must be modifiable and have the same owner.
This object must also be modifiable.

Caveats

  • This function causes the script to sleep for 1.0 seconds.
Permissions
  • Shouts an error on DEBUG_CHANNEL if target isn't in the region or an object.
  • If either the object or the target are not modifiable or of different owners, then an error is shouted on DEBUG_CHANNEL.
  • The maximum distance between linkable objects depends on the size of the objects as explained by Andrew Linden in this post.

Notes

The prims for the child object (target if parent is TRUE, script's object if parent is FALSE) are inserted into the root object's link set starting at link number 2. For example, if the link order for the root object is A1, A2, A3 and the link order of the child object is B1, B2, B3, then the link order of the resulting object will be A1, B1, B2, B3, A2, A3.
