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.

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.
