freebie box

I’m trying to find out how to create a box that dispenses free objects – when clicked, it offers the option "Open." If "Open" is selected, a box opens with the object’s contents (free and fully modifiable objects), with the option to copy to inventory. This seems to be the basic design of most freebie boxes, but the ones I set up do not give other avatars access to the objects. I’ve been able to dispense the free objects using a "give inventory" script, but only one at a time. Creating a group is impractical under the circumstances (the objects have full permissions). Help!

I have not programmed any such objects, but have used some. One way that I have seen work is that the box containing the freebies is made "Free to Copy". Then the recipient can rez their own copy of the box onto the ground and then Open it and copy the contents to their inventory.

It is a bit more clumsy than the method you describe, but maybe you can use it as a backup plan.

Hi Rathlin, you posted the same thing over in the Building forum (I posted a response to that thread, hope it helps):
