Summary

Buggy
Function: llRequestPermissions( key agent, integer perm );
136 Function ID
0.0 Delay
10.0 Energy

Ask agent for permission to run certain classes of functions.

• key agent – avatar UUID that is in the same region
• integer perm – Permission mask (bitfield containing the permissions to request).

Script execution continues without waiting for a response. When a response is given, a run_time_permissions event is put in the event queue.
Constants Action Category Granter Automatic When
PERMISSION_DEBIT 0x2 take money from agent's account Money Owner
PERMISSION_TAKE_CONTROLS 0x4 take agent's controls Control Anyone sat on, attached
PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION 0x10 start or stop Animations on agent Animation Anyone sat on, attached
PERMISSION_ATTACH 0x20 attach/detach from agent Attachment Owner attached
PERMISSION_CHANGE_LINKS 0x80 change links Link Owner
PERMISSION_TRACK_CAMERA 0x400 track the agent's camera position and rotation Camera Anyone sat on, attached
PERMISSION_CONTROL_CAMERA 0x800 control the agent's camera
(must be sat on or attached) 		Camera Anyone sat on, attached

Caveats

  • A dialog is presented to the agent to grant these permissions except when granted automatically as shown in the table above.
  • If object is attached to agent, "automatic" permissions are granted without notification upon request.
  • Permissions persist across state changes.
  • Regardless of whether granting is automatic, you should always use the run_time_permissions event. Granting permissions takes time, and you shouldn't assume it's completed until the run_time_permissions handler gets invoked.
  • Permissions do not accumulate.
    • If a permission was requested with a previous call to this function and granted, then in subsequent call was not requested, that permission is released (lost).
    • To request two or more permissions at the same time, use the bitwise OR (|) operator, e.g.: 
      llRequestPermissions(AvatarID, PERMISSION_TAKE_CONTROLS | PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION)
  • It is currently not possible to request no permissions at all (see Issues below); as a workaround llResetScript can be used.
  • Scripts may hold permissions for only one agent at a time. To hold permissions for multiple agents you must use more than one script.
  • The result of granting permissions effects the return of llGetPermissions and llGetPermissionsKey immediately despite the run_time_permissions event being queued, or dropped if the object's event queue is full.
  • Permission request dialogs never time out.
    • If a script makes two permission requests, which ever response is last is considered the granted permissions.
  • The viewer limits permission requests from any agent to any other agent to 5 dialogs in 10 seconds

Examples

Request permission to animate an avatar 

default
{
    touch_start(integer detected)
    {
        llRequestPermissions(llDetectedKey(0), PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION);
    }
    run_time_permissions(integer perm)
    {
        if (perm & PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION)
        {
            llStartAnimation("sit");
            llOwnerSay("animation will end in 5 seconds");
            llSetTimerEvent(5.0);
        }
    }
    timer()
    {
        llSetTimerEvent(0.0);
        llStopAnimation("sit");
    }
}

To request two (or more) different permissions at the same time you can using the bitwise OR (|) or precompute the value. 

llRequestPermissions(AvatarID, PERMISSION_TAKE_CONTROLS | PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION);
 
integer perms = PERMISSION_TAKE_CONTROLS | PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION;
llRequestPermissions(AvatarID, perms);
