Hi all,

Was wondering, I am trying to script an ATM machine that will allow users to

1: Register a new account with an outside Database
2: check your existing balance
3: Withdraw funds
4 Deposit Funds

Very mush in the same way that teh Xstreetsl terminals work.

I have it working but with one main problem.. I ( the owner of the object ) need to be online for withdraw funds function to work.

Is there a way around this?

The llGiveMoney function should work whether you are online or not, as far as I know, so long as the script has the debit permission.

Is it asking you for debit permission every time somebody tries to withdraw funds? If so, then you probably just need a little re-organisation of the script. Ask for the debit permission when the script first starts, and then you shouldn't normally need to ask permission for it again unless the object is re-rezzed or the script is reset.

you need to set up 2 things:
llRequestPermissions
and
run_time_permissions

this example is from lslwiki
