Caveats

Section titled “Caveats”
  • If the current script is removed it will continue to run for a short period of time after this call.
  • With multiple executions an llSleep(0.1) after llRemoveInventory will allow edit window contents to refresh correctly and avoid errors on phantom contents.
  • llRemoveInventory will not trigger a changed event.
