Linking Permissions (llRezObject)

Okay, I got the root prim to rez an object from it's inventory, then it asks my permission to link it.

*Most* of the time, the two items get linked, but sometimes I get an error.

More importantly though, can I script it somehow to always have permission to link, so it doesn't ask the owner every time?

Thanks in advance,

What error do you get? Something about them being too far apart to link? If so, then you have to make sure the two objects/prims being linked are within the link distance for it to work. Also, the max number of prims in one object is 31 for physical objects, and 256 for non-physical. Make sure you're not hitting that limit.

If the existing object script has already gotten your permission to link, it shouldn't have to ask again. However, if the rezzed prims are the ones asking, then yes, they have to ask each time, and you have to grant it, because they are each running their code anew from being rezzed, and don't start out with the permissions.

I'm just using 2 prims at the moment, 2 meters apart (just until I get the concept down).

So, can I have the root prim ask for permission when it's first rezzed, and have it apply that to any rezzed prims after that?

How-so?

Only the script in the root prim needs permission to link. The scripts in the child links don't unless for some reason you want the child links to be able to change the link set, in which case it would be better to have them send link_messages to the root and have it perform the links changes. Also, when you use llRezObject, note that you can't rely on it being rezzed until you get an object_rez event. If you are calling llCreateLink right after the llRezObject, I'd advise you to move it to the object_rez handler instead.
