objects speaking

ok guys, I need a simple script that when put into a prim, and when touched, it will do a /1 say whatever by the owner. Is this possible ?

ie: prim rezzed. when the owner touches it, that prim would do a /1say I'm an oscar Meyer Hot Dog[enter] in chat.


Help !!!!

Not the most difficult of tasks, something as simple as the following would do it.

// Set the message here
string gMessage = "I'm an oscar Meyer Hot Dog";

default
{
	state_entry()
	{
	}
	
	touch_start(integer count)
	{
		if(llDetectedKey(0) == llGetOwner())
		{
			llSay(1, gMessage);
		}
	}
}

I wasn't sure if you wanted the word 'say' as part of it, though that could be included by changing the llSay to:-

llSay(1, "say " + gMessage);

You didn't say wether you wanted to be able to change the message on command, so i hard-scripted it.

Which will give... Object: I'm an oscar Meyer Hot Dog
Or... Object: says I'm an oscar Meyer Hot Dog

You could use...

llSay (0,"/me says \"" + gMessage + "\"");

To give... Object says "I'm an oscar Meyer Hot Dog"

Given the fact that the object is 'saying' on channel 1, surely it wouldn't get the 'Object:' at the start of the message?

Correct. Given that its on channel 1 I don't think the Owner will actually hear it.

Could you mean that you want the object to say it, but appear as the owner is saying it?
(A simple way there would be to just name the object the same thing as the owner's name).

Or could you mean that you want the object to repeat what the owner is saying, and that the owner is saying it on channel 1, but the object says it on the chat (0) channel (which would just require the object to a llListen for things the owner says on channel 1, then repeats them on channel 0.

Might want to rephrase in case we're not clear on this.

So you want an object to control other scripted objects that only listens to the owner on channel 1. The only way you can do this is use llDialog which will give you blue dialog box that pops up then put the command in the dialog buttons. Then when the buttons are selected it makes the owner say it on the defined channel.

That's EXACTLY what i needed... ok now I have a direction to go with !! Thank you Gearsawe !!
