Sending a variable to a linked prim.

I have this script that sets up a random variable based off of the root prims key:

listenChannel = ( -1 * (integer)("0x"+llGetSubString((string)llGetLinkKey(LINK_ROOT),-5,-1)) )

I am using this to set the listening channel for an object. If I put this in one of the link sets other prims, it works fine until I take the object into inventory and then rez it back. Then it breaks and the settings that are in that linked prim stop working, but the main script still works fine.

Any suggestions?

i assume you're putting that in the state entry? object keys change each time they're rezzed. the state entry is only run once when the script is compiled, or reset, or when switching between states, so if you aren't doing any of that, then it won't check for the new key. if it's possible you should have the script reset on rez

That makes sense. I'll try that and see if that fixes it. Thank you.

Or if you dont whant to loose another variable , just do again the part where you get the variable needed in the on_rez part, not all again with reset script.

that too, lol, forgot to mention that

Thanks so much. I got it to work perfectly. I did set it to reset the entire script only because after you said that I realized that another part of the script reads who the owner is and that could run into a similar problem.
