Im trying to get a sphere to rez around an avater, attached to the belly location, from the inventory of a worn object via a command. I can get the sphere to rez, but it won't attach, thus trapping the avatar in the sphere (amusing, but not the desired effect). No matter what I try I cant get it to work.  Thanks for any help! |

Hard to say without seeing the script you are using/i.e. what you are actually doing!
At a guess, I'd say you may be forgetting to first make a call to llRequestPermissions(agent_key, PERMISSION_ATTACH)?
/esc

default
{
on_rez(integer start_param)
{
key owner = llGetOwner();
llRequestPermissions(owner, PERMISSION_ATTACH);
}
run_time_permissions(integer perm)
{
if (perm & PERMISSION_ATTACH)
{
llAttachToAvatar(ATTACH_RHIP);
}
}
}

Yay, Phoenix's suggestion worked! However, is there a way to get it to attach without the pop up asking for permission?
Also, now the command to remove the ball is broken.. Im guess ing i need to use the detach command?

idk how to make it not ask fist, but anywho, put this script into the object being attached, then the person just gotta right click -> drop and the object will kill itself. Only way I kno howto do it right now.
default
{
state_entry()
{
llSetTimerEvent(10.0);
}
timer()
{
llDie();
}
}

you can't make self destructing attachments*.
*you can make scripts for them that will make it very difficult.

No you either have to detach it, which puts it into your inventory, or you have to manually drop it.

Also, the shield you're trying to make won't be able to absorb any bullets since attachments become phantom on attach.  |

Well, in that case, you'd need attach only a single object once. Much easier.  There are countless means of shielding and all of them are pretty imperfect (And I should know, I ship a product that has a shield and penetrates other shields ). A shield object that follows the avatar might be a little cumbersome, but I dunno. Script one and we'll test it. |
