Hi! I am working on a script that needs me to get a cid from a position. How do i do this?

Hi again. I will try to make it easier for you to answer by giving you some code to get an idea for what I am trying to accomplish.

Keep in mind that this is just some code that I am messing around with. Not even near the final product.

pos = { x = 233, y = 566, z = 7}
creature = getTopCreature(pos)
addEvent(doCreatureAddHealth, time, creature.cid, -10000)
addEvent(doCreatureAddHealth, time, creature.uid, -10000)
addEvent(doCreatureAddHealth, time, creature, -10000)

I get errors saying that it could not find that creature. Where am i fucking this up?

As you see I am trying to figure out how the data is returned... I cannot find any good documentation on that... If you know of such a thing, please point me to that as well. I am kind of used to well documented stuff from my previous projects.

The script runs on The Forgotten server 0.3 Alpha 4 without any modification to the source-code before being compiled on a Linux server with gcc.

Thanks
