key llGetOwner()
Returns the
key of the
owner of the
scripted object.
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.
You can retrieve the owner of a specific object other than the one containing the script with
llGetOwnerKey.
Examples:
default
{
state_entry()
{
if (llDetectedOwner(0) == llGetOwner())
{
//do stuff
}
}
}
default {
state_entry() {
llListen(0, "", llGetOwner(), ""); // listen to my owner
}
listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string message) {
llSay(0, name + " said: " + message); // repeat owner's text
}
on_rez(integer start_param) {
// every time we're rezzed, reset the script
// this ensures that if we're transferred to a new owner, we're listening to them and not still to the previous one
llResetScript();
}
}Q: How do I get the owner's name instead?
A: If the owner is in the same sim as the object at the time it's called, (IE, if your script is within an attachment) use llKey2Name. Otherwise, you need to use llRequestAgentData and the dataserver event, which takes longer and is more complicated.
