Apparently, a deeded object can't listen. The following script will echo anything you type on channel 55, unless you deed it to your group. Then it will do nothing.

Is this expected behavior?

default
{
state_entry()
{
llListen( 55, "", NULL_KEY, "";);
}
listen( integer channel, string name, key id, string message )
{
llOwnerSay( message);
}
}

Nope. Not even a little.

Are you sure that's the code you're using? Just going by the thread title, I guessed the problem was that you were only listening to llGetOwner() - something that breaks lots of scripts when the owner changes (like it does when deeding).

Also, just getting the "is it plugged in?" stuff out of the way, are you sure the script's actually running?

I suspect it's listening fine, but who is llOwnerSay talking to if the owner is now the group?

Because... You aren't the owner anymore, the Group owns it. :) So it is working, it's sending messages to the 'group' which probably can't receive llOwnerSays. :)
