linkset scripting - Help needed

Hi all,

i have a script that cycle through different colors in a nice way, but if i put it in several prims they sort of get unsynced in time. So i thought that if i could make the script effect all prims named colorprim that might do the trick as then only 1 script will run instead of one in each prim.

So the tough question is how do i make it, i have no clue whatsoever about scripting, i cut and paste, comment out and enable to make scripts behave as i want.... so i really hope a kind person out there can tell me the lines i need to put into the script.

Thanks

You can use this function:

With that you can set the color on all prims in a linkset from one script
Happy Scripting

Thanks Dora.... that is a shitload of text to read through, and as i stated above my knowledge for scripts are limited.... very limited in fact

Guess i will keep it as it is and just reset the object whenever the colors are to much out of sync

If the whole prim is changing color, I think llSetLinkColor(put the number of the link here, put the color vector here,ALL_SIDES) (All-Sides can be changed to a side number)

the lack of sync might be llSetLinkPrimitiveParams haveing a small delay after each command...

you can also put this script in each prim

default
{
link_message(integer sender_num, integer num, string msg, key id)
{
if(num=42)llSetColor((vector)msg,ALL_SIDES);
}
}

and then thisin the main script:

llMessageLinked(LINK_SET,42,(string)Color_Vector,NULL_KEY);


but above it you have to tell it what the color vector is.... vector Color_Vector= ________ from the script

I hardly think so, it is called once for all prims and the OP never got around to use it anyway, she thinks that: "is a shitload of text to read through"! Some people don't like work and some don't like to have dirt on their hands
