Hello!

I'm not sure if this is a building or scripting question so please bear with me. ^_^;

Is it possible to change the length of time a Temp On Rez object lives? In this case I want to shorten the time.

TIA~!

As far as I know the lifetime of temporary objects is always random and around 60 seconds...
if you want to get rid of them faster, use a script with a timer that triggers the llDie function :)

Right, here's a script for you:

CODE

float time_to_live = 10.0; // seconds to live

default {
     on_rez(integer start_param) {
          llSetTimerEvent(time_to_live);
     }
     timer() {
          llDie();
     }
}

Thank you~! I spent my lunch hour going through the LSL manual and some examples I'd printed out (I'm computerless at lunch) trying to figure out how to do this. I was close...but not close enough. This helps immensely! Thank you! ^_^
