Channel Constant		Description
DEBUG_CHANNEL	0x7FFFFFFF	Chat channel reserved for script debugging and error messages, broadcasts to all nearby users.
PUBLIC_CHANNEL	0x0	Chat channel that broadcasts to all nearby users. This channel is sometimes referred to as: open chat, local chat and public chat.

|caveats=*This function cannot transmit on the public channel, this is a design feature and not a bug.

• Text can only be a maximum of 1024 bytes.
• A prim can not hear itself, to prevent problems with recursion.

default {
    state_entry()
    {
        llRegionSay(25,"This is an incredibly useless program." );
    }
}

To avoid making your object spam its neighborhood, use llOwnerSay or llInstantMessage. |helpers |also_events= |-style="vertical-align:top;" | style="color:gray;" |•  | listen | style="color:gray;" | | | |also_functions= |-style="vertical-align:top;" | style="color:gray;" |•  | llListen | style="color:gray;" | | | |-style="vertical-align:top;" | style="color:gray;" |•  | llOwnerSay | style="color:gray;" | | | {{LSL DefineRow||[[llWhisper}}|Sends chat limited to 10 meters}} |-style="vertical-align:top;" | style="color:gray;" |•  | llSay | style="color:gray;" | – | Sends chat limited to 20 meters | |-style="vertical-align:top;" | style="color:gray;" |•  | llShout | style="color:gray;" | – | Sends chat limited to 100 meters | |-style="vertical-align:top;" | style="color:gray;" |•  | llInstantMessage | style="color:gray;" | | | |also_tests |also_articles |notes=If one object 'says' something to another object (e.g., a button that, when touched, turns on a lamp), it is a good idea to use a very negative channel, e.g.,

    llRegionSay(-5243212,"turn on");

It is impossible for an avatar to chat on a negative channel, and extremely unlikely that some other object would accidently say something on such a channel. (Of course, the intended target of the message must be set to 'listen' on this channel.)

If DEBUG_CHANNEL is used as channel, the script will say msg to the Script Warning/Error window. (DEBUG_CHANNEL = 2147483647)
