Okay, I'll try to explain this simply.

I'm working on creating a spotlight. I set a llListen command for the base of it to rez the "light" prim when I say "lights on" on channel 1. This works perfectly.

Now, I edited the actual light prim that rezzes, and I added a script to this also. This script has a listen command waiting for lights off so it can run llDie and turn itself off.

My question is this, since I'm forced to contain the light prim inside the base. Is there any simple way of viewing and editing a script that is nested inside an object inside an object? For instance, is there any way to edit the script for the light prim without first having to remove it from the base and then rez it out of my inventory?

Thanks in advance.

After you rez it you could send it the control script it needs

quick kinda off topic question........ since llRemoteLoadScriptPin loads a script into another object by using that objects key, and since an object's key changes for each copy of that object, doesn't that mean the script wouldn't work if you made a new copy of the object and doesn't that screw up selling copies of objects with scripts that require an object's key to work? am i missing something?

ah ha well that solves one problem. but doesn't that only work if you use llRezObject() and not if you want to use llRemoteLoadScriptPin() to start a script in an object in the inventory of another object and sell copies of the whole thing?
