Code: 
The Forgotten Server, version 0.3.7_SVN (Crying Damson)
Inside my npc, I have the below script.
I originally had the item decay from items.xml, but when given from an npc or quest it did not decay.
So I've tried transforming the item given into a uniqueid, with a decay time, however the npc does not give the item at all!
Currently does nothing when you say 'blah' except give the player the message.
No error's in console when loading/reloading npc's.
No error when player says 'blah'.

Any idea's?

Thanks for any help, and as always,
I love you guys and gals. :p
Code: 
if msgcontains(msg, "blah") then
       selfSay("Here is an item. It will expire in 1 hour.", cid)
         local time = 60
         function decay()
         local thing = doPlayerAddItem(cid, 6537, 1)
         doTransformItem(thing.uid, 1000)
         addEvent(decay,time*1000)
       end
end

Bump~
In case it's unclear, I want the item to decay to nothing, No matter if the item is on the floor, equipped, or in backpack.
It's alright if it stays when they are logged off, so I don't need to change the onlogin.
A similar item in tibia would be the icicle that 'melts' after 10 minutes.

Any help is appreciated! :)

In data/items/items.xml find your item and add this:
Code: 
<attribute key="decayTo" value="0"/>
<attribute key="duration" value="3600"/>
This XML code will works only for items dropped from monsters or spawned on map. To enable XML decaying via LUA you have to add this little part:
Code: 
local thing = doPlayerAddItem(cid, 6537, 1)
doDecayItem(thing.uid)
You don't need any addEvents.

Thank you! I was getting so confused. Been trying for close to six days getting this to work! :p

I was kind of premature in saying it was solved!
It seems doing it this way is having problem with lib, npchandler.
I've tried a few things on my own, however I'm really having no luck at the moment.
I've stripped everything down to 'barebones' to make everything easier to solve.
Once again, thank you for all the help!
-- small edit -- When the server is restarted, the item's duration will start counting down. However any new item's given from the npc will not countdown, until once again the server is restarted? Maybe I'm using the function wrong :/
-- second small edit -- If a player re-log's it also starts the timer. :p
