Voice Repeater?? Chat Color Changing Thingie??

Hello, I do not know if I have the right "category" but here we go....I've heard of these voice repeater that can change the color of your chat, like for hosting events. I would like to know more about how to change my chat color...I know NOTHING about scripting, so is there something I can buy to change the color?? I'm not a NOOB so much anymore, but I sure feel like it most of the time.

It's simply that text said by an object is green, unlike your normally spoken text.

It works by doing a simple listen and repeat.

Example: Say text on channel 2, and this script will repeat it (in green!).

default
{
	state_entry()
	{
		llListen(2,"",llGetOwner(),"");
	}
	listen( integer chan, string name, key id, string msg)
	{
		llSetObjectName( name );
		llSay( 0, msg );
	}
}

Thanks for the info, but like I said, I do not know ANYTHING about scripting and such, so your post is very much over my head. What do I type where to tell my chat to do channels and such. Really, speak real slowly to me about technical computer stuff....I'm not stupid, I just don't get THIS kind of stuff. Thanks!!

Okay, rez an object. Click the "New Script" button in the contents tab. Now, copy and paste that code that I posted. Save, and close the windows.

To say things on a channel, you type /[channel] [message]. So, to say "Hi there!" on channel 5, you would type /5 Hi there!.

Type "/2 message" to cause the object to echo your words. If you want more range, you can change the line that says llSay... to llShout...

Okay, you have made this sound easy enough, and for that I thank you!! Onemore question: I assume I have to have this object "out" and near me when I want to use the color change channel....is that right? I think I may actually be able to do this...thanks so much for your help!! I'll post an update to letcha know my results

Yes. You should put this object where you would stand if you wanted as many people as possible to hear you -- in the center of the group. Then you can just sit anywhere that's in range of it and have your messages repeated.

You could even make a gesture with a "chat" command, so you can press F4 and everyone hears you say "~~WE HAVE A WINNER!!~~"

Is there anything I can put into the script to make it another color, like blue or purple?

No, all text filtered through an object is green. Unless you change it in your preferences, but you'll be the only one to see it.

Well, poop! That sucks, but thanks for the info!!
