Deleting an object by a script in another object

Hello,

I have an object which rezzes another object. It works, but now I would like to delete it from the "rezzer" object.

I found the llDie function but i don't know how to use it the way i want.

Can you help me?

Thank you

Stone

Couldn't you just make the rezzed object No Copy?

You are looking for llRemoveInventory.

Or you could have the rezzed object "phone home" to the rezzer and have a script there call llRemoveInventory().

If you mean that you would like to have the rezzer able to delete the rezzed object, it could be as simple as having the rezzer say something on a specific channel, and calling llDie in the rezzed object when that command is given.

integer channel=8910;  //channel to listen on

default{
    state_entry(){
        llListen(channel, "", NULL_KEY, "");
    }

    listen(integer chan, string name, key id, string msg){
        if(chan==channel && msg=="die")
            llDie();
    }
}

in the rezzed object, and the following in the rezzer:

llSay(8910,"die");

where 8910 is your channel number.

that could potentially be dangerous.

you should always set up some sort of authentication scheme if deleting on channels.

I like your idea Sys Slade


is it possible in the rezzed object to get the key of the rezzer object when rezzing so that it can only allow the rezzer object to delete it?

integer channel=8910;  //channel to listen on 
key rezzer_object_id;

default{ 
    state_entry(){ 
        llListen(channel, "", NULL_KEY, ""); 
    } 

    listen(integer chan, string name, key id, string msg){ 
        if(chan==channel && msg=="die" && id==rezzer_object_id) 
            llDie(); 
    } 
} 

You set it up to listen only to the rezzer, i.e.
Rez the with a (preferably random) channel number and then in the rezzee immediately start a listen.
The rezzer then 'talks' on that channel sending the key of the object that was rezzed as authentication.
The rezzee then clears its current listen and starts a new one just for the key of the rezzer which it obtained when the rezzer first authenticated itself.
