Function syntax
integer llGetRegionFlags();
Returns
integer
Energy
10

Only a small number of flags are actually used; the rest (shown below in strike-through) are always zero. In particular, it is not possible to detect the status of “Allow Land Resell”, “Allow Land Join/Divide”, or “Block Land Show in Search”; nor, obviously, it is possible for a script to detect that “Disable Scripts” has been set.

Returns an integer that is the region flags (REGION_FLAG_*) for the region the object is in.

How to use
integer result = llGetRegionFlags();

†REGION_FLAGS_* are internal and not exposed to the compiler (hence the strike through), despite this their values may be valid in the mask. In other words, there may be no nice name for the constant that the compiler will accept but the values may work. Remember that LL does not support these; they may redefine the flags without notice, this has happened in the past.
*REGION_FLAGS_* flags in red have been removed from the , the values may get reassigned and reused!
