Aye...from my other thread I got the script to work, but it seems there is a built in delay, which kinda opens the two doors .2 seconds apart. Now normally this isnt a huge issue, but it is for a business, so I'm trying to be the most professional I can about this lol.

From: someone

llSetLinkPrimitiveParams(3 , [ PRIM_POSITION, pos_l_shrink - llGetPos(), PRIM_SIZE, scale_l_shrink]);

//Right Door
llSetLinkPrimitiveParams(2 , [ PRIM_POSITION, pos_r_shrink - llGetPos(), PRIM_SIZE, scale_r_shrink]);


I use that above, jw if theres a way to remove the delay or maybe if anyone has another idea as to achieve what I'm doing without a delay.

Thank you!

There's an inherent delay in many LSL functions (see if you haven't already). One way to get around it in this case might be to change your tactics. Instead of sending a message to linked prims, consider unlinking the prims and sending a command with llSay on a hidden channel. The message will be received simultaneously by the two door prims, which can react with embedded scripts that use llSetPrimitiveParams instead of llSetLinkPrimitiveParams. They ought to respond at the same time.

similar to Roligs solution, you can leave them linked, but instead of having them react to a touch (or whatever), have them react to a link message... on of them can then include code to send out a link message on touch (or whatever)... it's the method I use for my own double doors.

A link message? Never heard of that, is there a wiki page or some reading on that?
