llDetectedLinkNumber Help Needed

llDetectedLinkNumber(number) always returns 0 regardless of which linked prim is touched. Anyone have any ideas? Here is a simple example:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
integer linkNumber=10;

default
{
state_entry()
{
llSay(0, "Hello, Avatar!";
}

touch_start(integer total_number)
{
llSay(0, "Touched." );
llWhisper(0,"Touch Event from " + (string)llDetectedLinkNumber(linkNumber));
}
}

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've tried it in the parent prim and I've tried it in the child prims. It always returns 0.

Thanks in advance for any hep/guidance.

The llDetected functions take input an integer which indexes which avatar is touching (or colliding, etc). If there is only one avatar touching then the number should be 0.

Errr, You are requesting llDetectedLinkNumber(10) which unless 10 ppl are touching it at once wont be valid.

default
{
    touch_start(integer total_number)
    {
        llOwnerSay("Touch Event from " + (string)llDetectedLinkNumber(0));
    }
}

The documentation in the wiki is not very good for this function but try using 0 in the llDetectedLinkNumber function.

I thought llDetectectedLinkNumber (in the parent prim) would give the link number of which child prim was touched. That is what I'm really looking for. Any hints?

Newgate already gave you the answer.

I see the error of my ways. It works just like you said. Thanks again!!!
