Particles and Key

Hello Coders,

I'm new to SL and have a question about PSYS_SRC_TARGET_KEY

I'm using "target = llGetOwner();" to get particles to come out of an object and come to me. I also use "target = llGetKey();" to get particles to come out of an object and return to that object. But what I don't know how to do is get the particles to come out an object and go to another object. I don't understand how to get the 'key' of an object, so maybe I'm not clear on how getting a 'key' works. I've read the WIKI on Keys, but I guess I just need a layman's explanation on how they work. So, once again, here are my questions

How do I get particles to come out of an object and go to another object?

What exactly is a 'key'?

Thanks a bunch

A key is a unique identifier for an object.

You can use a llSensor call to find the other object and then use llDetectedKey to get its key. Or if you know the *exact* object you want the particles to go to you can put a script on that object which tells you its key ( llWhisper(0,(string)llGetKey()) ). You can then use that string the object says as the target.
