): how can the object's name be suppressed when it sends output to chat? Usually the output starts with "<object>:" (or "<object whispers>:", respectively) but I found that eg. emoters don't say the object prefix (if I saw right). How can this be suppressed? Or am I completely wrong?Welcome to the Second Life Forums Archive

Use a blank name in the prim doing the speaking?
llSetObjectName looks intresting. http://lslwiki.net/lslwiki/wakka.php?wakka=llSetObjectName Calling llSetObjectName in an object worn as a HUD will change its name, but only while it is worn. In inventory, the name change will not be reflected. Taking it off and re-wearing the HUD is like renaming it back to what it was before your script renamed it. Setting the name to blank, then using llSay would give you just a colon before the text output.. or if the message is less than 255 character, setting the name to the message to be output then using llSay(0, ""  should give you the colon at the end of the line. |
