All of a sudden, llDialog() no longer works from a group-owned object.

Anyone else seeing this? Is there are JIRA entry?

Thanks

Seems fine here with deeded stuff. I've been noticing this week that occasionally dialogs in general can take a long time to show up, but nothing consistently off.

Object has been working fine for me and another who's using the same thing. Today, no workee -- don't get a menu, at least not within 20 minutes.

Same object, not deeded, works fine. Script is simple. Deed it, it initializes fine but stops giving menu on touch. I added llSay calls before and after llDialog(), and it hits them. It's using the correct av key as well (my own). But no menu.

I'll see if I can make a trivial example. Might depend on what kind of sim. I'm on a class 4, so probably havok 1.

We had this 3 days ago with copies of a particular object (a radio), could not fathom it at all.

The next day all was well again, without us (knowingly) making any changes to the objects.

Sorry, I can't be more helpful than that, except to say we observed similar behaviour and it seemed to get fixed without us intervening :)

Oh now that you mention radio, there was something off yesterday. I rezzed a radio thing and no matter what I tried, the deed button wouldn't light up, permissions etc. were just what they should be. I finally dragged the scripts around into a fresh prim and then everything was fine.

Just on a lark, make sure you don't have an owner check for it. Ya know, something like:

touch_start(integer iCount) {
if (llDetectedKey(0) == llGetOwner()) {
llDialog(blah...);
}
}

That won't work anymore if you deed the object to group, since the owner is the group, and groups can't touch anything. ;)

(Yes, I have done that before. :p )

There is no havok 1 on the main grid anymore.

Sometimes Sims just decide to freak out and llEmail, llDialog and such stop working reliably. Try to get a sim restart in if you can (rolling restart in the next couple days should fix it anyway).

OK, thanks Squirrel, but oddly enough this problem is happening on two different, unrelated sims. It does happen to be a land radio script, but that's beside the point because it never gets anywhere near setting parcel media.

I *do* see that the group button is wonked, just as you say Viktoria, and suspect that it's related somehow.
