llAttachToAvatar script

Hello,

For a promotion for a survey I need a script that enables that an avatar can wear a promo board and doing so earns money the time the promo board (prim object) is worn.

I took a camping script and changed it to be usefull for wearing an object and earn money. However it is not working. So I hope somebody can help me?

This is what I made of it:

integer campmoney = 0; // Initial amount to grant someone upon the VERY first sit after first rez. (Think, Special bonus) 
integer campadd = 4; // Payout amount 
integer camptime = 600; // Payout time in seconds (Script USES this) 
string camptimeM = "10"; // Payout time in minutes (Attract SAYS this) 
string reciever = NULL_KEY; // key of Sitter 
string  _Animation; 

default 
{ 
    state_entry() 
    { 
        llRequestPermissions(llGetOwner(),PERMISSION_DEBIT   ); //Ask my owner for permission to give money and assume it suceeds 
        llSetText("Press Wear to earn money by walking around,\nL$"+(string)campadd+" every "+camptimeM+" minutes",<0,1,0>,1); // Set the hovertext to attract mode 
     } 

    changed(integer change) 
    { // something changed 
        if (change & CHANGED_LINK) 
        { // and it was a link change 
            if (llGetAttached() != 0 && reciever == NULL_KEY)             
            { // if Avatar key isn't empty, somebody is wearing the object 
                reciever = llDetectedKey(0); // store sitting avatar's key 
                llSetText("Money: L$"+(string)campmoney,<0,1,0>,1); // Setting hovertext to current amount earned 
                llSetTimerEvent(camptime); // amount of time between payments in seconds 
            } 
            else if( reciever != NULL_KEY ) 
            { // if the avatar has gotten up 
                if(campmoney > 0) 
               { 
                   llGiveMoney(reciever,campmoney);  // give the avatar the amount of money he has earned. 
                   reciever = NULL_KEY; // forget who the receiver was 
                   campmoney=0; // reset earning count to 0 
               }
               else 
               {
                reciever = NULL_KEY; // forget who the receiver was 
                campmoney = 0; // reset earning count to 0 
                }
                llSetText("Press Wear to earn money by walking around,\nL$"+(string)campadd+" every "+camptimeM+" minutes",<0,1,0>,1); // change the hovertext back to attract mode 
                llSetTimerEvent(0); // Nobody is sitting on me, so no need to call timer(). Disable timer. 
            } 
        } 
    } 
    
    timer() 
    { 
        campmoney = campmoney+campadd; // current amount + xL$ per camptime 
        llSetText("Money: L$"+(string)campmoney,<0,1,0>,1); // update hovertext with currently earned amount 
        if (llGetAttached() == 0) 
        { // Noone's sitting on me, reset the vars 
            reciever = NULL_KEY; // forget who the receiver was 
            campmoney = 0; // reset earning count to 0 
            llSetText("sit here for free money,\nL$" + (string)campadd + " every "+camptimeM+" minutes",<0,1,0>,1); // change hovertext back to attract mode 
            llSetTimerEvent(0); // Nobody is wearing object, so no need to call myself anymore. Disable timer. 
        } 
    } 
}

Thanks for your support!

Hello

You can only take money from the Owner of the script/object. And as soon as you give the board to another player so that they can wear it, they become the owner.

Alternatives:
1. Have the board track how long it has been worn, then the player can "check in" at an ATM type place you have setup to get paid.

2. Use another object as a server and have the boards llEmail to the server object when they are equiped end removed (not sure what happens if the player logs out while wearing the object).. then the server can fire off Pay events on a timer.

Milambus, OK. Thanks for quick reply. It helps me to find another way of solution and see which option to take to let an avatar wear the board and submit the payment for the time he/ she worn it.
Merci.

You might also want to make sure that the attached location isn't one of the HUD attachment points. If nobody else can see the sandwich board, it isn't doing you much good.

OK, will keep in mind Jacques , thx for tip!
