TFS 0.X TFS 0.3.7 Special Effect on Quest Box

[OTcreator]

Hello!
In map i have BOX with etc: Action ID: XXXX ,UID: XXXX (QUEST).
I need script , maybe globalevents?
ETC: When Action ID > 1999 on postition (QUEST BOX or on position AID) --- magic efect or other efects.

I need show in map all quests for new player. Maybe possible to make light in box?

Indeed, we need a globalevent and since you are setting UIDs we can use them as position

local positions = {
    {17500 -- Box UID, CONST_ME_MAGIC_BLUE};
    {17501 -- Box UID, CONST_ME_MAGIC_RED};
}
 
function onThink(interval, lastExecution)
    for i = 1, #positions do
        local tile = getThingPos(positions[i][1])
        if tile then
            doSendMagicEffect(tile, positions[i][2])
        end
    end
    return true
end

You could also add some marks on minimap, using same UIDs and trigger it onLogin

local positions = {
    {17500, "Plate Armor Quest"};
    {17501, "Dragon Shield Quest"};
}
for i = 1, #positions do
    local tile = getThingPos(positions[i][1])
    if tile then
        doPlayerAddMapMark(cid, tile, 0x03, positions[i][2])
    end
end

Not sure if thats what you requested tho

All work perfect, but how i can change effect to stackpos = 0?
Now all effects view on the quest chest not on the ground.
I use effect (ground tutorial).

Yes, just put inside the tile condition

tile.stackpos = 0

Now all effects view on the quest chest not on the ground.

I think thats how effects works

 

[OTcreator]

Yes, just put inside the tile condition

tile.stackpos = 0

I think thats how effects works

function onThink(interval, lastExecution)
    for i = 1, #positions do
        local tile = getThingPos(positions[i][1])
        if tile then
            doSendMagicEffect(tile.stackpos = 0, positions[i][2])
        end
    end
    return true
end

I change that, and not working... Maybe becouse function [getThingPos] read position and stackpos chest?

tile.stackpos = 0
doSendMagicEffect(tile, positions[i][2])

 

[OTcreator]

tile.stackpos = 0
doSendMagicEffect(tile, positions[i][2])

Can you add full code? Please
