Add on tool for MLPV2 that puts a button on the MLPV2 menu that, when clicked, gives a user an object (or multiple objects) that you wish them to use with an animation.

By Chaz Longstaff, June 2008.


Example:

LINKMSG TieMeUp | 1,-4,987789,Cuff1#Cuff2#Cuff3#Cuff4##Wear these four cuffs.

Steps to use:

  1. Copy and paste everything below the double-line on this page into a script called, for the sake of argument, "~give" (the script name is actually irrelevant; you may call it kumquat if you wish;)
  2. Drop the script into the prim where you have the rest of the MLPV2 scripts;
  3. Add the object that you wish to give out. Usually, it is either a prim object, or clothing. Note that this object to be given out needs to have both copy and transfer permissions set on it;
  4. Add to the menu in an MLPV2 menu notecard the following line:
LINKMSG MyButtonName | 1,-4,987789,NamesOfObjectToOffer##MsgToPerson


In the above line, there are three elements for you to customize as appropriate:

  • MyButtonName -- the wording that you want to appear for the button on the blue menu
  • NamesOfObjectToOffer -- the name(s) (case and spacing sensitive) of the object(s) you are offering. If you are offering more than one, separate them with a hache (aka number, aka pound) sign # . Example: Item01#Item02#Item03 . If you are not offering more than one, don't worry about the # separator here.
  • MsgToPerson -- A message to be instant messaged to the person being offered the item, so they know what it is for, and don't think it's a random spammer or griefer passing by, etc.

Note that NamesOfObjectToOffer and MsgToPerson are separated by a ## separator (two hache symbols.)


What you don't need to change in the above sample line:

  • 1 -- makes it so the MLPV2 menu doesn't reappear, so the user can see the accept-object menu
  • -4 -- the value of LINK_THIS, meaning, send this message to this prim only. (Use -2 if the ~give script is in a different prim.)
  • 987789 -- This is the number the ~give script looks for to detect a message to it.
