I own and wear a collar that allows me to be tracked notifying nominated 'owners' if i have crossed sims etc. The collar is made by !M&S and in their use notes they write that a "stop tracker" script could be added to the collar to disable this function. I don't think they will help me disable their own product so can anyone help me locate such a script or offer advice - i don't want to take the collar off just move about without being tracked! Thx :)

just rip out any scripts in the contents of the thing.
It won't do anything then anymore though....

What a bad pet you are!

Anyway :D You could pause the scripts inside, either manually, or using the script below, but that might just make them queue the events that reveal that you've teleported and just tattle on you anyway once you reactivate them. Not sure.

// stop tracker script... by day oh
// NO GUARANTEES!!!
// usage: /99 stop , /99 go

default
{
on_rez(integer param)
{
llResetScript();
}

state_entry()
{
llListen(99, "", llGetOwner(), "stop";);
llListen(99, "", llGetOwner(), "go";);
}

listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string message)
{
integer run = (llStringTrim(llToLower(message), STRING_TRIM) == "go";);
string me = llGetScriptName();
integer t = llGetInventoryNumber(INVENTORY_SCRIPT);
integer a;
string inventory;
for(a = 0; a < t; a++)
{
inventory = llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_SCRIPT, a);
if(inventory != me)
llSetScriptState(inventory, run);
}
llOwnerSay("All scripts " + message);
}
}

thx Damanios but that will have to a last resort as i would like to keep the collar in working order if poss - thx Day Oh - yes i am very bad :) - i tried the script thx so much but it did not work for some reason it had errors - however acting on your suggestion of pausing i used the menu to "set scripts to not running in selection" - this has stopped the normal functions of the collar and so i assume (??) the tracking too. What's more is that the 'not running' appears to still work after logging off and on again - so maybe this will work? thx so much

Have you looked in the colalr for a tracker script? if it runs Amethysts scripts her tracer script is separate from the collar scripts and thus easily removed.. good luck :) You could also try replacing the scripts in it with Amethysts? *don't say you heard it from me lol*

I dunno but if you you're owned by someone that demands to track you and you don't want to be tracked have you tried:

1. Talking to your owner and settling on a compromise,

2. Finding a different owner that you agree with,

3. Removing the collar and putting up with your punishment?

If their notes say it can be disabled, then I would ask them. If they didn't want people disabling it, they wouldn't have told you it was possible.
