i recently scripted a chat relay. it is set to liste ONLY to the owner via llGetOwner() function. I gave the item to a friend and it wont relay chat through them but i can still relay chat through it. it shows her as owner yet it listens to me and not them tried several friends. Older objects i have using this script seem to work ok just th script i created today.

i recently scripted a chat relay. it is set to liste ONLY to the owner via llGetOwner() function. I gave the item to a friend and it wont relay chat through them but i can still relay chat through it. it shows her as owner yet it listens to me and not them tried several friends. Older objects i have using this script seem to work ok just th script i created today.

here is my current script

CODE

integer channel = 7;

defualt
{
     state_entry()
     {
            llListen(channel, "", llGetOwner(), "");
     }
     listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string message)
     {
                if(llGetOwnerKey(id)==llGetOwner())
                {
                        llSay(0, message);
                }
      }
}



it works fine when i type and not at all when others type if i take out the
CODE
 if(llGetOwnerKey(id)==llGetOwner())
line then i can style relay through it but they cant. any help would be greatly appreciated

The script is still using the old listener (filtered to you) and needs to be reset whenever it changes owner.

Just put an llResetScript() within a on_rez() handler, or do something like:

CODE

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

From the wiki on the llGetOwner() funtion call:

From: someone

Note: a script will only check to see its owner when llGetOwner is called. This can be annoying if you transfer ownership of the object to another user. If you're using llGetOwner in llListen or llRequestPermissions, consider putting llResetScript in the on_rez event, or even llListen in on_rez. Remember to remove your old listens with llListenRemove or they'll pile up! Depending on what you have in state_entry, llResetScript is usually the best method.

plus if you're filtering with llListen you don't need to filter again in the listen event
