Here's a little function to return a region type. Formerly it did normal regions and openspace, but now it differentiates normal, homestead, and openspace.

CODE

integer getRegionType() {
	// returns 0 for normal region
	// returns 1 for homestead region
	// returns 2 for openspace region
	integer actualPrims = llGetParcelMaxPrims(llGetPos(), FALSE);
	integer parcelSize = llList2Integer(llGetParcelDetails(llGetPos(), [PARCEL_DETAILS_AREA]), 0);
//	integer homesteadPrims = (parcelSize * 572) / 10000;  // bang-on accuracy
//	integer openspacePrims = (parcelSize * 572) / 49980; // bang-on accuracy
	integer homesteadPrims = (parcelSize * 572) / 8000;  // includes 25% margin of error
	integer openspacePrims = (parcelSize * 572) / 40000; // includes 25% margin of error
	if(actualPrims < openspacePrims) return 2;
	if(actualPrims < homesteadPrims) return 1;
	return 0;
}


Pretty self explanetory, just call it as "integer n = getRegionType()"

Cheers!

does max prims report differently if fed the region corner, might save some math

I don't think it matters - it's just looking at the actual prims available for the parcel the script is on when it runs, and compares that against what it would expect to find if the parcel were on a 750-prim region or a 3750-prim region.

Math-wise I thought it was actually pretty simple. None of the functions incurr a forced delay either so it should return the region type more-or-less instantly.

I just meant you wouldn't have to calculate prims/parcel if max count will return the whole region max using the region corner... though I don't know if that even works, just a thought...

it is a good idea though, I'm betting some cataloger will add that to their info script.

Took and tweaked it for the non scripters to use in this thread:

/327/59/293244/1.html

CODE

//Based on Atashi Toshihiko's work
//http://forums.secondlife.com/showthread.php?t=291872
default {
	state_entry() {
		integer actualPrims = llGetParcelMaxPrims(llGetPos(), FALSE);
		integer parcelSize = llList2Integer(llGetParcelDetails(llGetPos(),[PARCEL_DETAILS_AREA]), 0);
		integer homesteadPrims = (parcelSize * 572) / 8000;	// includes 25% margin of error
		integer openspacePrims = (parcelSize * 572) / 40000;	// includes 25% margin of error
		if (actualPrims < openspacePrims)
			llOwnerSay("Openspace Region");
		else if (actualPrims < homesteadPrims)
			llOwnerSay("Homestead Region");
		else
			llOwnerSay("Normal Region");
		llDie();
	}
}

How is this affected by the option an estate owner/manager has of increasing a parcel's quota of prims?
