This is a simple leash script that will attach from the primitive that the script is in to an object. Once attached to an avatar, the script scans the local area for a certain object name (NAME_OF_OBJECT) and, if found, it checks whether the owner of that object is you. If you are the owner of that object, then the script will generate particles to simulate a leash.

The script was originally created for Mandy Deed and meant as a leash to her pet. This script was placed in a leash loop and then attached to her hand. The script scanned the vicinity for her pet, named Persian_1 and generated particles simulating a leash.

This script will leash one object to another on script reset, provided that the owner of both objects is the same. It is also unable to leash objects to one-another if they are worn attachments. For a more elaborate script that will re-leash attached objects, please see the horse martingales script or the cuffs script.

• Create a new script in a primitive of your choosing and copy-paste the code below.
• Configure the script and set NAME_OF_OBJECT to the name of the object towards which the leash particles will be sent to.
