Summary
Function: llRequestPermissions( key agent, integer perm );0.0 | Forced 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 | Automatically granted 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 or Anyone | 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; automatically revoked on stand or detach) |
Camera | Anyone | sat on, attached |
PERMISSION_TELEPORT | 0x1000 | teleport the agent | Teleport | Anyone[1] | |
PERMISSION_SILENT_ESTATE_MANAGEMENT | 0x4000 | manage estate access without notifying the owner of changes | Estate | Owner | |
PERMISSION_OVERRIDE_ANIMATIONS | 0x8000 | configure the overriding of default animations on agent | Animation | Anyone | attached |
PERMISSION_RETURN_OBJECTS | 0x10000 | Used by llReturnObjectsByOwner and llReturnObjectsByID to return objects from parcels | Cleanup | Owner, Group Owner |
Caveats
- 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) different permissions at the same time you can using the bitwise OR (|): <lsl>llRequestPermissions(AvatarID, PERMISSION_TAKE_CONTROLS
Examples
Request permission to animate an avatar <lsl>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"); }
}</lsl>
To request two (or more) different permissions at the same time you can using the bitwise OR (|) or precompute the value.
<lsl>llRequestPermissions(AvatarID, PERMISSION_TAKE_CONTROLSNotes
A dialog is presented to the agent to grant these permissions except for a few cases:
- If agent is sitting on object - Control and Camera tracking permissions are granted without notification upon request.
- If object is attached to agent - Control, Attach, and Animate permissions are granted without notification upon request so long as the script is in the root prim. If the script is not in the root prim, the user will see the confirmation dialog.
- Permissions can persist across state changes - You do not need to request permissions in the state_entry() of each state in your script.
Regardless if a dialog is displayed you should always use the run_time_permissions event instead of depending upon this quirk.
