Lua Effects very fast!!

[Szka]

Hi guys!
Im putting some effects with text on some statues and it is changing really fast! I love the effects but I would like that the effects changes slowly, like every 1 or 2 seconds...

Dont know how to change this, and I modified the globalevents.xml to change the interval but it stay the same...

Here is the code

function onThink(interval, lastExecution)
same = math.random(01, 255)
doSendAnimatedText({x = 32257, y = 32221, z = 7}, 'Axe', math.random(01,255))
doSendMagicEffect({x = 32257, y = 32221, z = 7}, math.random(38, 50))
doSendAnimatedText({x = 32257, y = 32225, z = 7}, 'Club', math.random(01,255))
doSendMagicEffect({x = 32257, y = 32225, z = 7}, math.random(38, 50))
doSendAnimatedText({x = 32253, y = 32219, z = 7}, 'Sword', math.random(01,255))
doSendMagicEffect({x = 32253, y = 32219, z = 7}, math.random(38, 50))
doSendAnimatedText({x = 32248, y = 32221, z = 7}, 'Distance', math.random(01,255))
doSendMagicEffect({x = 32248, y = 32221, z = 7}, math.random(38, 50))
doSendAnimatedText({x = 32248, y = 32225, z = 7}, 'Magic', math.random(01,255))
doSendMagicEffect({x = 32248, y = 32225, z = 7}, math.random(38, 50))
return TRUE
end

Thanks guys!

Thanks for your fast reply
Here is the xml! Hope this is the one you wanted xD]

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<globalevents>
    <globalevent name="effecttile" interval="5" script="effectile.lua"/>
    <globalevent name="save" interval="1800000" event="script" value="save.lua"/>
    <globalevent name="clean" interval="7200000" event="script" value="clean.lua"/>
    <globalevent name="serverstart" type="start" event="script" value="start.lua"/>
    <globalevent name="playersrecord" type="record" event="script" value="record.lua"/>

assuming it's effecttile and you're using 0.4, 0.4 runs events in milliseconds, so your interval is 5 milliseconds and not 5 seconds.
also, here's better code

local function Position(x, y, z)
    return {x = x, y = y, z = z}
end

local t = {
    {Position(32257, 32221, 7), 'Axe'},
    {Position(32257, 32225, 7), 'Club'},
    {Position(32253, 32219, 7), 'Sword'},
    {Position(32248, 32221, 7), 'Distance'},
    {Position(32248, 32225, 7), 'Magic'}
}

function onThink(interval, lastExecution)
    for i = 1, #t do
        local e_rand, t_rand = math.random(38, 50), math.random(255)
        local pos, txt = t[i][1], t[i][2]
        doSendAnimatedText(pos, txt, t_rand)
        doSendMagicEffect(pos, e_rand)
    end
    return true
end

@Szka

<globalevent name="effecttile" interval="5000" script="effectile.lua"/>

Thank you bro! Your script worked just fine (Really appreciate that you even copy my X, Y, Z positions)
And you were right, I'm using TFS 4.0 so it was on miliseconds!
