Is there anyway in a script to get [PRIM_TYPE] except by llGetPrimitiveParams() ???
(I would love to have a: llGetLinkPrimitiveParams() but can't find it anywhere)

Nope, only with llGetPrimitiveParams

create a "worm".. it requires either planning, or brute force.. but if you create a small script that responds to a linkmessage, you can use llGiveInventory in a loop to "install" that script into every prim in the linkset. The script can run, report it's data to the core script, and then self-destruct.
There's a way to do it "elegantly" using llRemoteLoadScriptPin, but you must first have SET said PIN before hand, on each prim...
the brute force method involves using llGiveInventory to give the script to each prim in the set, then using "take" and re-rezzing it several times, each time trying to do a manual "reset script in selection" and "set scripts to running in selection".. eventually you'll coax all the scripts into a running state, but it takes some patience.
(I had to do this to retroactively rename a whole big mess of the prims in a 152 prim object.... this is of course a great way to get that "PIN" set in a huge linkset that you "forgot" to prime.)

Oh my dear! interesting but not very appealing I'm afraid. And from what I read you cant give inventory to linked prims... is that so or not?

Every prim has a key, even in a linked set. Getting that key, however, may be difficult from outside the object, but works fine inside the object. |
