Good day SLers,

It's me, AGAIN, lol.. how is everyone doing in the new year? 2009!!..

anyhow,, i'm looking for a way to pay someone specific, not a random avatar, only a specific avatar using a HUD, this is the easy part, the hard part for me,, which i dont know how to go about, how to make that avatar pay me, or get money from that avatar using a HUD that I AM wearing.. my problem is with permission, coz i dont know if it is possible or not.

Thank you

If it was possible to get money from another avatar with a HUD we'd none of us have any money left in our accounts by now. :D

Rez a box they can click on, and give it a pay action.

you're talking about debit permissions. that only works for the owner of the script.

money isn't stored in objects, any money paid via an object goes directly to the owner's account. the script only keeps track of how much is paid, and can re-rute partial or full payments if desired (only with debit permissions and if it's scripted as such.

so you could definetly pay others with a hud. but you can't take payments from them. only they can pay you themselves, whether it's directly, or via an object in world (you can't pay attachments)

There is a device that I just bought

http://www.xstreetsl.com/modules.php?name=Marketplace&file=item&ItemID=96122

that you might be able to use, although its not a HUD.

What it is a device that the owner configures with the keys of avatars who will be able to withdraw money from their account. The owner then touches it and a big box comes up warning that they're giving permission for their accounts to be debited.

After that, the people whose keys are listed in the device can come and touch it and get money.

It's possible to set limits.

I don't know what you want to do, but assuming your intentions are good...

What you could do is have in a convenient place one of these wallets belonging to the person you want to charge. The other person would own it, would have to configure it with your key, and then touch it and grant permission.

I guess you're talking about a box to let you get money from or hand money to a "Banker Alt". That object has to be owned by the alt, and can't be attached to you.

The best thing you can do is to have a HUD that uses something like llEmail to communicate back to the "bankbox" object.
