Defining Group

I would like to define a group in a variable such as...
THE_GROUP = "My Group"
...and check the variable against an avatar that touches it.

llSameGroup won't work given it will only match the objects group with the avatars group.

I need the object to be one group and the avatar a different group. Ideas?

Thanks in advance.

(I suspect I know the answer to this is "no" due to group functionality in LSL being severly limited but I had to ask

Your suspicion is correct. The closest you're going to get is to set the object to the group you're checking the agent against, and using llSameGroup().. obviously this is problematic if you're checking for multiple group memberships.
