I'm looking for a simple fast pay script that gives the contents from the prim the user is buying from. I've been trying to cobble together my own based on the wiki but I'm not a programmer and this thing is kicking my butt, so I figured I would ask the more experienced people here. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

um you want the prim to give the items in it, to the person who pays the prim?

If that is correct then a script is not needed
just check give contents on the prim options when you set it to sell

if this is not what you mean, then please specify...

Yes I can do that just fine, but the problem is the BUY button is buried 2 levels deep when you right click it. I wanted a fast pay script so that the PAY button on the first level was visible, that way I weed out the idiot factor of people not knowing it's for sale simply because they don't see it on the first level.

when you set the object for sale
select contents as previously suggested

then under that section, chosee BUY OBJECT as the default left click.

from there its a no brainer for the person buying, as the icon changes to money

When you have set the object for sale, 2nd level applies to you (the owner), all your clients will see buy in 1st level ?

I actually tried that "On Left Click" buy thing at the bottom of the main tab, but it tells me it doesn't work unless I also use a script with a money() function in it.

As for the last poster, I'm not sure about that, has anyone else experienced that where the owner of the object sees BUY on the 2nd pie menu but everyone else sees it on the first?

There is no need to have a script to sell the contents of a prim. It DOES require though that it be set for sale first, or it gripes at you.

The left click options were created on purpose to give folks with no scripting knowledge the ability to sell items.

'Buy' on the pie menu for owners is a 2nd level function, simply because you alaready own the item, so you would not REALLY want to buy it from yourself.


The best way to make a test, is to create 2 prims, a cube and a sphere, put one inside the other and set the permissions as necessary, get a friend to test what the Tool Tip says on mouse hover, then set it for sale as you need and the default left click, then have your friend check again.

If the BUY button is on the 1st pie menu for everyone other than owner, then that makes this all moot because that's why I wanted the script in the first place thinking it was buried in the 2nd pie menu. I'll run a test with a friend and see. :) Thanks!!

Ok had a friend test, you are right, for everyone not the owner the Buy button is indeed on the 1st pie menu. So I don't have to worry about any script at all, woot. Thanks everyone :)
