What is the best way for prima to talk to each other? For example I have one prim that needs to tell another prim a piece of information every 10 minutes or so. They need to be able to relay this information over as long a distance as possible. Right now I'm using llsay (99, "text";) but I am sure there is a distance limit. I need something that would allow communication across an entire sim.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

There are several methods. Check out the chart in the wiki.

Sounds like email would probably be the best fit for your situation. It has no distance limit. The sending will always need to know the key of the receiver though.

You can use llShout() which increases the range to almost 100m.
