Hi!
I have an object attached to the owner and I want it to attach another one from it's content. Is that possible at all?

Nope, which is part of the reason I think the HUD implementation leaves a lot to be desired.

From: Funaria Moose Hi!
I have an object attached to the owner and I want it to attach another one from it's content. Is that possible at all? Yes, but as far as I know it's awkward. You have to rez the object from inventory, then give the object an on_rez that attaches it. It's awkward because the object has to be copy-ok (if it's no-copy, there's no way for the script to take it back afterwards), and since an attached object can't llDie(), it has to llDetach() - which means that for every time the script has run, the owner winds up with a copy of the expired attachment lying around in their inventory. Also, the object has to ask permission to attach, and the user can refuse. |

Rez a copy of this object, and have this copy try to attach upon rez. Code for the contained object:
default
{
on_rez(integer p)
{
if (llGetAttached() == 0) llRequestPermissions(llGetOwner(), PERMISSION_ATTACH);
}
run_time_permissions(integer p)
{
if (p) llAttachToAvatar(ATTACH_HEAD); // change that to wherever you want to attach it
}
}

The serious problem with this method is that the user would end up with a whole load of the same attachments in their inventory. It's messy.

And, thinking about it, it wouldn't work in no build areas either.
