Is this no longer able to return the number of prims used simwide? Or was it ever? The Wiki says it should, but I'm not seeming able to use it as such.

All the line below is doing is returning the number of prims used in the local parcel.

CODE

llGetParcelPrimCount(llGetPos(), PARCEL_COUNT_TOTAL, TRUE);


Any way around this? Nothings on the wiki about this not working =/

Edit:: Also seems the same is true for llGetParcelMaxPrims()

It's returning only the max for the local parcel (Even weirder it's actually a couple prims lower than if I left sim-wide as FALSE)

the line I'm using is:

CODE

llGetParcelMaxPrims(llGetPos(), TRUE);

to my knowledge the only time it'll return simwide results is if the owner of the object can view those results from all the parcels.

When you take a close look at the command names you will see that they all have the word PARCEL in them. So of course they will only work on the current parcel. And that only when you have sufficient permissions.

With the sim-wide flag set, you get the total count for all parcels on that sim owned by that one parcel owner. So it's like the true max number of prims you can put on that parcel.

Without the sim-wide flag set, you get the count for only that parcel.

The parcel could have more prims on it than the parcel itself supports because the total is shared by parcels in the same sim with the same owner.

It works for all the parcels that are owned by the Shelter in Isabel.

CODE

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        llOwnerSay("Total Count in Sim: " + (string)llGetParcelPrimCount(llGetPos(), PARCEL_COUNT_TOTAL, TRUE));
        llOwnerSay("Total Count on Parcel: " + (string)llGetParcelPrimCount(llGetPos(), PARCEL_COUNT_TOTAL, FALSE));
    }
}


returns

[0:24] Object: Total Count in Sim: 3823
[0:24] Object: Total Count on Parcel: 2350

There are 3 parcels in Isabel deeded to Shelter Infrastructure. The parcel the object was on was our main. The sim wide included the prims from our pool area and live music area.
