Ok I havent paid much attention to this until Thursday night.

In the past I built stuff and then if I was given something like say a seat to make it work Id put it in and link it last.

Well Several Months ago Cubey helped me out with a script for a basic flight plane that Andrew had written on the scritping board. So no problem there.

Cubey gave me a seat with the script in it and I used it to link to my aircraft that I built to test the models flight paramaters.

Well due to a lot of RL things and Clothing things I put it down for a few months and just came back to it a little while back.

Recently when I had another scripter write a specific script for me to use in my new jets all the prims from the orginal build now say that Cubey "created" them even after I delink and check just one of the prims. When in actuallity I had built the jet from my own prims and just linked his seat last.

Oddly enough this is being said after I de link them. I know somone would have piped up it was because it was the last Item linked.

Well the Issue now is those prims that were orginaly created by me now have Cubeys name on them just because I added 1 seat with a script to it.

Im not singeling Cubey out nor am I accusing him of anything so no one even think that at all. In fact I am greatly thankful of him for offering his help when I first started this.

However, This is about Prims and Linking parents to childeren.

So please tell me if this is something that is inherent to Linking parents to children do the parent prims change the creator of all the children prims attached to it?

If so this is a dissastrous flaw that needs to be fixed.

If this is a known bug Id like to know
If this is a new bug Id still like to know
and if anyone else can help me out with this as I cannot for the life of me figure out why its doing that.

Sincerely, Shadow

We have been unable to reproduce the problem you describe. Attribution is an important property, and it would be a serious problem if there was a way to permanantly change the creator field.

Let me know if you see this again.

Phoenix I did some back dating and the orginal Plane was created in January of this year....but since has been replicated a few times. I am sure that the orginal one was deleted from my inventory so all the ones past the orginal hold the same notation of who the creator was and its still showing not me.
