I'm working on a HUD display, and am wanting to add in a feture when i click on one of the buttons it wall say for example Bow out, or Bow away.

I know dialogs can do this, but is there a way yet, to get the scripts in objects themselfs to act as you speaking?

Unfortunately, not without the text being colored green. You could name the object your avatar name, but the text the object emits will always appear green instead of white.

Aye I know that way, thats simple, But was wanting it to speak like how the dialogs do.
state_entry(){
agent = llGetOwner();
agent_name = llKey2Name(agent);
llSetObjectName((string)agent_name);}

For the listen, you can have the object listen to itself AND The owner, if that's what you want. Where you put the listen event, replace it with this:

CODE

llListen(0,"",llGetOwner(),"");//Listen to Owner
llListen(0,"",llGetKey(),"");///Listen to itself.

It'll always be coloured green and have a different key. Sorry. llDialog is the only thing that can do that.

You could always have the object pop up an llDialog() with the phrases you want the user to select from in there. It's one extra click, but might save buttons on the HUD.
