Good day Slers.. its meh again.. new questions.. lol

Well.. i was woundering if there was any script that i can use for the following:

+ I add it to an object so its activated when rezed.
+ I fund the object, or put certain amount of L$.
+ The object is closed to all residents, only open to a certain group.
+ The object will have a hovering text showing the amount of money left in the object.
+ The allowed residents will touch the object, menu will show, (100, 500, etcL$) and he/she selects the amount.
+ The object pays the resident and records the transaction into a server on the internet - The server will use PHP - and in the object (for 30 days only).
+ The object notifies me (owner) of this transaction by IM.


Thank you for your help.

You can do all of that, except an object can not have an account.
Instead it can give money from it's owners account.
Happy scripting:)

You could of course make the object so that it only gives out a certain amount, etc. etc. etc.

But as a safeguard, I would use an alt. Fund the alt with a certain amount and make the alt the owner of the object.

An 'alt' is an alternate account. If you give permission to an object to take money from you, it is possible that something could go wrong and you end up broke (especially if you are new to scripting.)

So instead of giving the object permission to debit your account, you create an alternate Second Life account (that you control) and give it the money and the object and let the object dispense the money from the alternate account. This would be a buffer that would keep your money safe.
