Summary

Function: llShout( integer channel, string msg );
24 Function ID
0.0 Delay
10.0 Energy

Shouts the text supplied in string msg on channel supplied in integer channel.

• integer channel – output channel, any integer value
• string msg – message to be transmitted
Channel Constant Description
DEBUG_CHANNEL 0x7FFFFFFF Chat channel reserved for script debugging and error messages.
PUBLIC_CHANNEL 0x0 Chat channel that broadcasts to all nearby users.

Caveats

  • Text can only be a maximum of 1024 bytes.
  • Shouts can only be heard within 100 meters of the speaking prim (rather than the root). This is contrary to how listens work, where a message can only be heard by any prim in the object if and only if the root prim is capable of hearing it.
  • A prim can not hear itself, to prevent problems with recursion.

Examples

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        llShout(0,"This is an incredibly useless program!" );
    }
}
For communicating with the user or owner it is much better to use llDialog, llOwnerSay or llInstantMessage as they won't spam other users.
