No-mod objects and changing a prim's cut

I'm pretty sure there was another thread on this a while back. I ran into this issue too. I had a linked object, and a script in one of the prims that changed the cut parameter using llSetPrimitiveParams. If I give that object to someone else as no-mod, that script doesn't work. If I give them a copy with mod permissions, it works.

Is there a way around this? I tried getting the same visual effect by trying other transformations like rotating the prim, but that doesn't quite work. And I did that by hand, so I'm not sure if the script will be allowed to do that too. I guess I could rebuild the whole object and use a second prim and rotate that to simulate the changing cut, but that's kinda excessive.

So I guess cut (and maybe hollow?) are treated differently? Can a script change a prim's scale in a no-mod object? I know it can change textures and alpha and relative positions/rotations, because I have scripts/objects that do that. So why is cut special?

I have been hit by this too and as a result must sell my flower houses with mod permissions. A script in a no-mod object can change the scale, position, and rotation but it can't change the cut. I haven't tried hollow, twist, shear, etc. I have filed a bug report on this, as it makes no sense, but I haven't heard anything on it.

Thanks. I think I'm leaning towards releasing it as modifiable too.

Personally, I'd lean towards getting the bug fixed... But that's not up to us, of course.

Scripts not being able to change prim attributes when no-mod? that sounds like a bug.
