Lua addEvent to change itemid

[Fredrikli]

function onUse(cid, item, frompos, item2, topos)
    if item.itemid == 9827 then
        doChangeTypeItem(item.uid, 9828)
        addEvent(doChangeTypeItem, 3 * 1000, item.uid, 9827)
    end
end

When i use the lever, it should just stay "used" for 3 seconds, and then return to it's original state.

After 3 seconds i get this in my console:

[Error - Action Interface]
In a timer event called from:
data/action/scripts/lever.lua:onUse
Description:
(LuaInterface::luaGetThing) Thing not found

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!

Are you sure that the IDs for the lever to the right and lever to the left are correct?

You can't use item.uid in addEvent unless the item has an uniqueid added in the map editor.

To change the item using addEvent you can use getTileItemById in a new function, so it gets the uid from there.

local function changeBack(pos, itemid, transformid)
     return doTransformItem(getTileItemById(pos, transformid).uid, itemid)
end

addEvent(changeBack, 3 * 1000, topos, item.itemid, 9828)
