it would be nice if we could make objects that don't get returned to us. they would delete themselves when someone returned them or they went off world or such. something like a checkbox in the building tool and a way to do it in a script like Temp On Rez would be great.

Might want to test to see if llSetStatus(DIE_AT_EDGE,TRUE); does this. It might. Maybe. Doubtful, though.

I would love this because if something happens and my sales vendors get returned to me, it just screws up my organizational system.
I would personally rather they get deleted than returned. I would just drop a new one out, and be certain it was always the up-to-date one being dropped.

we're getting more comments in the scripting forum (/54/28/25942/1.html) than here. :P

quick comment.... if the only use you can think of for this feature is griefing you're either a griefer or wearing a tinfoil hat.

would be nice to have this; i have a number of projects that can pollute at amazing rates and to spare the asset server (and my inventory) i would much profere they just die instead of being returned.

(ever run a sim mapper that puts out 10000 prims on land that has a short auto return?)
