I would like to purpose adding the ability to obtain the key of an object's rezzer.
Command syntax:
key llGetParent()
Executing this command will return the key of the parent object who've rezzed us.
We allready have an event called object_rez(key object), however this event is only good for finding out the key of child objects. Lacking the ability to find who was the parent is a real pain in the back.

In the event it is rezed from inventory by a user it should return the users key. Even if that is from the inventory of an object. Only if it is rezed by a script should it return the parent objects key. _____________________

and if objects don't remember who their parents are, could we at least get the parent key as a pram for the on_rez event (using something like function-overloading to maintain compatability with old scripts perhaps)

Afew people told me that the post is confusing, and they think that my "parent" I am refering to the root prim of a link set. This is not what I am refering to - I am refering to the object who have rezzed the prim in question.
I edited the post to make it more clear, but I cannot edit the subject line, and cannot edit the Voteing feature. Hope this will not trow off too many people. |

I think I'd rather it return a NULL_KEY if it was rezzed from inventory. It's an easier test than checking if the key is an avatar, I think. Not a ton easier but easier.
/me votes anyway. _____________________

Not a good solution, the object might be sold as original at which point it's new owner would not be the person who rezzed it. _____________________
