on/off for track lighting

built some track lighting, and want to have the 3 bulbs light whenever the linked prims are touch. I have searched and can't find what I am looking for. Could someone please point me in the right direction.

Also, built a chandelier that rotates and want to be able to turn the rotation on/off also.

Any help is appreciated. Thank.s

For the track ligts, the script is the same, in general, as any other touch-activated lamp switch. Simply put the script in each bulb for the lighting action, and use llLinkMessage to send the commands to the linked bulbs.

all right... i'll research the linkmessage since I obviously know very little LSL. Thanks for the info.

the root script would look like

integer gBooLightOn;

default{
  touch_start( integer vIntNull ){
    gBooLightOn = !gBooLightOn;
    llMessageLinked( LINK_ALL, gBooLightOn, "Control Message", "" );
  }
}

the light script would look something like

default{
  link_message( integer vIntNull, integer vBooState, string vStrCommand, key vKeyNull ){
    if ("Control Message" == vStrCommand){
      llSetPrimitiveParams( [PRIM_FULLBRIGHT, vBooState, ALL_SIDES,
                                       PRIM_POINT_LIGHT, vBooState, <1, 1, 1> * vBooState, vBooState, 10 * vBooState, !vBooState] );
    }
  }
}

set prim parameters can be changed to suit, but was provided as a complex example

I put a simple example of how to use MessageLinked and LinkedMessage in the library here:

/15/4c/138878/1.html#post1291918

void, i used this script, the light goes on and off as it should, but it gives this error each time it's clicked:
Object: llSetPrimitiveParams error running rule #1 (PRIM_FULLBRIGHT): bounds error; -1 is not in (0, 1).
and also in the root script, it should say LINK_ALL_OTHERS, not LINK_ALL

well I did say it should look somthing like that....

you could filter gBooLightOn when it changes to make sure it stays positive using

gBooLightOn = llAbs( !gBooLightOn );

good catch on the link msg, depending on usage it could also be LINK_SET (assuming the root is a light and has the relevant script)
