llGetOwner not working

Hi everybody!

I have an script that uses a llListen to hear the commands from the owner but it doesn't work I used it in two different ways:

CODE
llListen(0, "", llGetOwner(), "");


and

CODE
llListen(0, "", llGetOwnerKey(llGetOwner()), "");


In both cases when the object is transfered to a new owner, it doesn't listen to the owner, but to the creator.

Does anyone know why? and how to solve this?

Thanks a lot.

Check the changed event - it will tell you when the owner changes and you can re-do the listens.

If you don't have state/data that you need to persist across owner changes, maybe something like this...
CODE

changed (integer mask)
{
    if (mask & CHANGED_OWNER)
    {
        llResetScript();
    }
}

Basically you have the listen called in a section of the script that has not reset since it was originally compiled so it's just continued to listen to the creator.

You could do as shown above, or just reset the script on rez.

I typically have all of my initialization items such as sit targets, etc, in events that only fire on rez.
