Need help with tip jar script

Hello,
Is there any way to prevent a tip jar's script from resetting after it's taken back to the inventory, and re-rezzed? For example, I have a tip jar that will display the total amount of tips given to the owner so far, as well as the amount of the last donation. But if I re-rez the tip jar, both values will go back to L$0.
This is the script:

integer totaldonated;
string owner;

default
{
on_rez( integer sparam )
{
llResetScript();
}
state_entry()
{
owner = llKey2Name( llGetOwner() );
llSetText( owner + "'s Tip Jar.\n$L0 Donated so far",<.25,1,.65>,1);
}

money(key id, integer amount)
{
totaldonated += amount;
llSetText( owner + "'s Tip Jar!\n$L" + (string)amount + " Was donated last!\n" + "$L" + (string)totaldonated + " Donated so far",<.25,1,.65>,1);
llInstantMessage(id,"Thank You for the tip!";
llInstantMessage(llGetOwner(),(string)llKey2Name(id)+" donated $" + (string)amount);
}
}

Thanks.

This bit here...


...tells it to reset when you rez it. If you take that out, it won't reset.

What you probably want to do is add this, which will just reset it if you give a copy to somebody else...

changed (integer mask)
{
if (mask & CHANGED_OWNER)
{
llResetScript();
}
}

Or you can save the total in the objects description field and get it back when rezzing.

llSetObjectDesc( (string)totaldonated ); // save total

totaldonated = (integer)llGetObjectDesc(); // get back total

To reset the total you could manually set the discription to blank or 0.

--------------------------

They could also force a reset if you are using Sindy's modification by opening the script window and clicking the "Reset" button at lower right.

Perfect, thank you. ~~
