Display text in the main chat without the object name

Hi!

I try to understand how to send a message in the main chat without the object name.
Usually when u use llSay, you have :
"Object : the button was touched" (returned in green in the chat)
and i would like :
"The button was touched"

I know that it's possible because i see many stuff like that. For example the spankers always return
"Someone spank..." (still in green in the chat, but we don't see the name of the prim where the script is attached)

Does someone know how to do that?

Thx

blank out the object name, then use /me in the text sent to chat. that'll remove both the name and the leading ':' though you may get a leading space

Ah thank you!

Seems that /me uses the name of the object, so instead of blank it, i only put my name
Thx for the tips, it's helped me a lot

Try:

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
       //
    }

    touch_start(integer total_number)
    { 
        string myName = llGetObjectName();  //store the object's name
        llSetObjectName(""); //blank it out
        llSay(0, "/me The button was touched");
        llSetObjectName(myName); //give it the original name back
    }
}

or, you want to use the toucher's name,

  llSay(0, "/me " + llKey2Name(llDetectedKey(0)) + " touched the button.");

Why not strip off the first word you want to say for the object's name? For example, if you want it to say "The button was touched.", set the object name to "The" and then chat "/me button was touched."

That's what I do to make sure you get no spaces or whatever. Not sure if it is needed.
