I have had a problem with my scripts freezing up at random times. I have checked the free memmory, and there is still plenty. As a poor fix, I added another script with llResetOtherScript() on a timer to reset the script if it froze, however, I need debit permissions and resetting the script removes these. Please help. :confused:

it sounds like your script could be suffering from a logic bomb or an infinite loop. If you post the script, It should be easy to catch.

Is there anyone I could see in game? I don't really want to make the script public knowledge. :cool:

If you like, you can IM me in-game, and I can take a look at it. I give you my solid-gold guarantee that I have zero interest in your script itself, and a mild interest in seeing it work correctly for you. Cuz I'm just that kind of guy. :)

Do you know that some ll functions have an execution delay ? More info here.

This is the second one of my scripts to do this, so maybe I just don't know something really basic. Like an llDon'tFreeze :p .Gene, i don't see you on at all, is there some time we can arrange?

I might have found the problem. I think it is some llListen functions at different parts in the script that are causing it to 'freeze'. I think that the players are responding to quickly for the script, sending it to oblivion. I'll keep you guys posted if this turns out to be false. Thanks for all the help. ;)
