Object to object communication

Some systems require one object to talk to another as though a remote control. A simple example is a sensor that tells a door to open.

Is this even possible right now? In SL, we'd have scripts either "talk" on a private channel or send email messages to target objects' implicit inboxes. Sansar has a Chat class with a .MesssageScript(Message, ScriptId, Channel) method, but I don't really know how to get a script's ID in the first place. Nor if script messages work throughout the experience or just within an object containing multiple scripts.

Any thoughts?

  For the ID you can just use ScriptId.AllScripts . You can just change the channel to send information to an specific object.

  Thank you both for making sense of the API documentation and pointing out things to look for in examples.
