Stop script form running when object is worn

I have an object with a script. Now I want to be able to stop people from wearing this object. It should only be possible to rez it on the ground.

Is it possible to set such limitations.

Or is it possibe to stop the script from running when someone is wearing it.

Or can I maybe detect from the script that someone is wearing the object and that the object is not on the ground.

if you get an attach event with id not equal to NULL_KEY the object is worn/attached.

attach(key id)
{
    if (id != NULL_KEY) llOwnerSay("I am very attached");
}

Yes. Try this or something like it....

key avAttached = NULL_KEY;
default
{
    on_rez (integer start_param)
    {
        llResetScript();
    }
    
    attach (key attached)
    {
        llRequestPermissions(attached, PERMISSION_ATTACH);
        avAttached = attached;
    }
    
    run_time_permissions (integer perm)
    {
        if(perm & PERMISSION_ATTACH)
        {
            if (avAttached != NULL_KEY)
            {
                llDetachFromAvatar(); // This will detach the object and send it back to the owner's inventory
            }
        }
    }
}

Yes again. but I can't do it without putting a second script in the object to start it running again later. Here's the script itself....

default
{
    on_rez(integer start_param)
    {
        llSay(0, "Hello, Avatar!");  // This is just to verify that the script has been restarted if it was stopped before.
    }

    attach (key attached)
    {
        if (attached !=NULL_KEY)
        {
            llOwnerSay("Script deactivated");
            llSetScriptState(llGetScriptName(),FALSE);
        }
    }
    
    touch_start (integer num)
    {
        llSay(0, "This is a test.  The script is running."); // This is your test to see if it is running or not.
    }
}

Then you have to add this second "restarter" script to the same object....

default
{
    on_rez(integer start_param)
    {
        llSetScriptState("Main Script",TRUE); // Be sure you type the actual name of the first script here
    }

}

Nope. Can't do that one. Sorry.

ETA: Ah.... Yes, I can. I took the wrong meaning from your question. As Dora said, all you have to do is ask ...

if (llGetAttached())
{
     Say(0,"I'm attached!");
}

While the attach() and on_rez() events should serve your needs for the most part, you should put a slowish timer in their too, as sometimes (fairly rarely) the attach() or on_rez() event will not trigger, most notably if the script was in a loop when it was attached. A timer of two or three seconds ought to be enough to get a decent response time in the event of changes, all it needs to do is compare value of llGetAttached() with what is expected, and behave accordingly, in case the event didn't fire.
