Help! I'm looking for a tip jar script that will give an object when it's tipped. If anyone could point me in the right direction, or if someone has a freebie out there that does it, I sure would appreciate it!!

Ticious's script was custom written for Rocky Shores and she was asked not to share....sorry Embarassed

Still, it's not complex and I dont' think it's random. It has a list and I think it just gives the next item on the list.

There are a lot of scripts available. I found the one I've been using on slexchange.

If I were to make a wish list, here's what it would include:

1. script only - so i can put it in whatever i want
2. customizable presets
3. splitting option
4. customizable private thank you message that includes a conversion of their tip amount into US$ (Would other currencies be desirable?)
5. customizable public message & floater text
6. multiple give-away option

What would you expect to pay for a custom script? I asked the scripter of the one I use to make some small changes in it for me. When I asked him what he would charge, he said he'd do it for free (I paid $60L for the original). When I pressed that I wanted to pay he just said I could tip him whatever I wanted.

I could ask him to make the above tip script. Would multiple people be interested in it? Could we devise the ultimate tip spec?

I'll be on board (and willing to put some money where my mouth is) but option 4 MUST be optional. I personally wouldn't ever turn it on Wink

But for option 4, what you would need is for the user to have the ability to put in a conversion factor (which for Lindy-USD, they can get from the SL website as often as they care to update), since this changes (unless there's an LSL command that accesses the current rate?). If the user were putting in the conversion factor, they could make the conversion to any currency they felt was relavant. There should also be a variable that they could set to name the currency they were converting to.

Oh, I used to design software (biz end) for a living Wink

You've already got someone to make it, but if it so happens to not work out, I'd be happy to build it for free as well, simply for the benefit of our community. This is a great idea to get everything into one usable script, with the option to turn anything on or off.

option 4 I would want optional (2 scripts seperate)

#2 is a must (this is the blue pop up yeah?)

I can say that Silas split script is very customizable Smile

Babble added the give shirt to mine as I kept placing it in the wrong line of code.

the split can be turned off in a run about way (pull all the note cards of owners but yourself)

flaoting text is always editable (if the script is MOD/COPY)

and thats my want a MOD/COPY/TRANS full perms for one not to sell but to be able to edit for those that are affraid to mess with LSL and give to others to use set for them.
I do like the PUBLIC message as many are private, it helps to get it in the chat and reminds others...

the multipul give away seems easy enough its adding to the give_inventory comand a list that is randomly chosen 1 item if you do give all it will give all each time. so there is something to call in the LSL to do this but I have yet to find a free thing that will .."YET" its out there everything is.
