Assuming you have an object with a script that could hand out L$, which you of course need to give permissions to for it to debit your account, how long does that permission last for? Is it permanent, or does it reset daily, or just when there is a server/simulator reset (in which case, how often are those)?
Related to this, if you've got variables your scripts have been tracking, how long are those good for... do they expire under the same conditions as the permissions (e.g.: server/sim reset)?
Thanks very much, Tigsen

Both these things would last until the script is reset. When a sim reboots, it *tries* to save a scripts current state, though isn't always successful.

depending on what caused the reboot and the makeup of the script can effect if the scripts status will be saved. a script that causes a physics crash will start up just where it left off. (but an event may be lost).
Basicly once you grant a script permissions it has them till the script resets (or takes permissions from another person?)
EDIT: i'm talking about script permissions which are different from object permissions.

Permissions are permanent until a system bug crops up and allows people to change them when they shouldn't.
