I'm figuring out a way to write huge amount of software in Second Life. What I'm attempting to do is to reference a script's function from another script in the same object. But the problem is that function scope is only per script and not per object.

Is there any way to "import" other script function or states from another script or better from another object referincing it as a normal Object Oriented call?

If yes, is there a way to reference a "this"/"self" object from the script?

Hope someone can help

Thanks
Frankie

Nope.

You'll have to stick to linkmessages and other means of communicating whatever you need to the objects.

You can use the LINK_THIS constant to send information from one script to another within the same object.

You want to use link_message & llMessageLinked()
