Assuming that i have a object with 5 objects are Linked (Linked 5 object)
2 of the linked objects have script respectively.....
but.. i want a way to have one script file written in the whole linked object and work with other linked object.
Say, the whole object has a script and it need to handle event happened in other object and change the state of other linked objects.
Is it possible? if so, How?

{
llMessageLinked(LINK_SET,0,"MySignal",NULL_KEY);
} Then in your child prims have it listen for link messages with something like this: From: someone link_message(integer sender_num, integer num, string message, key id) { if(message=="MySignal"  { //Do Stuff here when it hears the signal. } } |

Is it possible? if so, How? This really depends upon what events you want to handle, and what changes you wish to make to the other prims. For example you can detect which prim in the link set was touched but not which one was collided with. useing llSetLinkParams you can set MOST parameters of a linked prim, unfortunately at the moment there is no way to retrieve the parameters of a linked prim. (/me agrees with Dora that this is needed). So, with out going into all the details, the answer is Yes and No, just depends on what you are trying to do. |

Hi Beverly Ultsch and Sean Martin, Thank you so much for sharing your idea. I am new to Scripting but i am learning a lot and its fun  Will get back to you once i try it. I do have once doubt if we have more script in all the linked objects... but i plan to send a attacked string with the string message to determing which link_message to work on the sent message. Thank you to both Vida. |
