Detecting Avatar Scripted Attachments?

Is there a way to detect what an avatar is wearing? I mean what scrripted items they have on at any given time?

If so, either what is the script i need or where could i get one? So far i found llGetAgentInfo and llRequestAgentData but they dont seem to tell me what is worn by an avatar

Thanks

Nope. This would require at least a modded viewer and possibly a bot. Even then, I don't think you'd be able to see what they have for HUD attachments.

No. If you have high enough estate privileges you can tell that someone is wearing scripted items -- at least you can if the person is carrying enough script load to show up on the top scripts listing -- but you can't tell which scripts they are. The only way I can think of to tell when someone has an attachment with a specific script in it is if the script is designed to communicate with you or with another script.

Yes sorry. I meant i needed to know that a script was present, as opposed to actually what it was.

Im looking at it from the viewpoint of a battle sim game. I'm trying to detect cheaters who are wearing scripted attachments (to gain speed, for instance) other than whats within the permitted HUD

The answer's still no. Unless the script is designed to tell you that it is there, you can't detect it.

Thanks for the help

Exactly - you can tell if they have 'scripted attachments' but not what or how many. as soon as you mention "other than" it becomes impossible.

One possible, but probably not practical, work-around. Build a 'suit of armour'/'uniform'/'avatar' that consists of items to be attached at every possible attachment-point (3. A script in these could check http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlGetAttached to ensure they are in the right place and your HUD could ask them to verify there were no other scripts included. Each one could tell the HUD when it was detached, just in case cheaters wanted to replace them after being 'scanned'.

You'd need to work to reduce lag but all those little scripts for each avatar - let alone the ones you actually want them to use - would still be quite a load.

Emerald?

Good point. So presumably Emerald's additional attachment-points are undetectable, in LSL anyway?

Hmm. I don't have Emerald installed so I can't experiment. But it would be interesting to see what llGetAttached had to say about those, how the attach event behaves with them and what, if anything, llAttachToAvatar does with them.

ETA: it's probably unfair to single out Emerald here; once they showed it can be done I expect everybody who's ever tinkered with the viewer source has tried to see how may replicated attachment points can be made.
