Giving Out Linden Dollars

Hi there -

I'd like to "pay" people to take a survey.

Is there a good example script you know of that would pay someone to take a survey, or even send them the money using RSSXML at a later time?

thanks - TB

A couple things:

-The script/object giving money must be owned by the person the funds are coming from.
-llGiveMoney() is the function you want to use here.
-Remember you can't give out money without giving the script 'permission' to debit your account first. Use llRequestPermissions() to do this.

Here's a hastily written & untested example:

list choices = ["red", "yellow", "blue"];
integer redcount = 0;
integer bluecount = 0;
integer yellowcount = 0;
integer handle;

default
{
     state_entry()
     {
          llRequestPermissions(llGetOwner(),PERMISSION_DEBIT);
		  llSetText("Click me to begin the survey!",<1,1,1>,1);
     }

     touch_start(integer num_detected)
     {
         llDialog(llDetectedKey(0),"What is your favorite color?", choices, 5); 
		 llGiveMoney(llDetectedKey(0),1);
		 handle = llListen(5,"",llDetectedKey(0),"");
		 llSetTimerEvent(30);
     }
	 
	 listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string message)
	 {
		 if (message == "red") {redcount++;}
		 if (message == "blue") {bluecount++;}
		 if (message == "yellow") {yellowcount++;}
		 if (message == "red" || message == "blue" || message == "yellow")
		 {
			llInstantMessage(id, "Thank you for completing our survey!  Here's L$10!");
			llGiveMoney(id, 10);
			llListenRemove(handle);
		}
	 }

	timer()
	 {
		 llWhisper(0,"Your choices have timed out.  Please click again to retry the survey!");
		 llListenRemove(handle);
	 }
			 
}

Thanks! TB
