Hia,

why will not this work:

{
llSay(0, + llGetOwner (void) + " Welcomes you to his place. " + llDetectedName(i) + ", feel free to look around and make yourself at home.";);
}

I Want the output to be: Linnrenate Crosby Welcomes you to her place. Detected person feel free to look around and make yourself at home.

I try to mod this script according to my needs: /54/46/196815/1.html#post1582460

EDIT: Umm and i want it to even greet me the owner as it's the only way for me to test that it's working.


Thanks,
Linn

llGetOwner returns the key of the owner, not thier name. You could use Key2Name to get the owners name but you should really have this declared as a global and have it in a state_entry with an onrez reset script function. Don't make the sim work harder by processing all of this info everytime the object is touched.

llDetectedName(i) should be llDetectedName(0) which will return the name of person that touched it.

CODE

string owner;

default
{
	state_entry()
	{
		owner = llKey2Name(llGetOwner());	
	}
	on_rez(integer start_param)
	{
		llResetScript();
	}
	touch_start(integer total_number)
	{
		llSay(0, owner + " Welcomes you to his place. " + llDetectedName(0));
	}
}

Thanks guys, but my problem is that i do not know shit about scripts.... someone just told me that the doomats that i sell should have a greeting script inside that would greet everyone.... and for testing i need it to greet me too.

But this seams impossible for me so i think i will ditch that idea :(

Simply ask someone else, or give it to someone else and have that person rezz the object with the greeting script, so that you can test it yourself.

The following script is working for me! :)

CODE

 
key Receiver;
 
string ReceiverName;
 
key OwnerKey;
 
key QueryID;
 
string OwnerName;
 
integer i;
 
default
 
{
 
 
 
// initialize state
 
state_entry()
 
{
 
OwnerKey = llGetOwner();
 
QueryID = llRequestAgentData(OwnerKey, DATA_NAME);
 
}
 
 
 
dataserver(key requested, string data)
 
{
 
if ( QueryID == requested)
 
{
 
OwnerName = data;
 
state running;
 
}
 
}
 
 
 
on_rez(integer start_param)
 
{
 
llResetScript();
 
}
 
 
 
}
 
state running
 
{
 
 
 
collision_start(integer total_number)
 
{ 
 
for(integer i = 0; i<total_number; i++)
 
{
 
Receiver = llDetectedKey(i);
 
ReceiverName = llKey2Name(Receiver);
 
llInstantMessage(Receiver, OwnerName + " welcomes you to his/her place." + ReceiverName + ", feel free to look around and make yourself at home.");
 
} 
 
}
 
 
 
on_rez(integer start_param)
 
{
 
llResetScript();
 
}
 
}

OK let me get this straight. You posted the script for the OP to use but you copyrighted that same script so that no one could use it :-)???????

Sorry Jesse,

cut&paste the whole coding from my editor, that added the copyright by default :)
changed that so everybody can use it!

Don't worry about it. It put a great big smile on my face that lasted all afternoon. I found it more then rather amusing. Plus you helped the OP who is just beginning to learn scripting and that is always a big thumbs up in my book!

Hey Shyan, thanks a lot. But when i save the script i get this:

(72, 4) : ERROR : syntax error in this line:

And it jumps to this line:
for(integer i = 0; i<total_number; i++)

Thanks, Linn

Hi Linn,

change the line to

for( i = 0; i<total_number; i++ )
