Help with Teleport Script

[konceptz]

I'm trying to make the teleport disappear after I create it, however, it's not disappearing. I have another similar script like this for another quest, so I think it has something to do with the add event.

function onUse(cid, item, frompos, item2, topos)
-- CONFIG --
idItem = 2159 --Item id required in coal basin
itemPos = {x=635, y=166, z=7, stackpos=1} --Item position in coal basin
getItemPos = getThingfromPos(itemPos)
toPos = {x=636, y=159, z=7} --Teleport player position
createPos = {x=637, y=165, z=7} --Teleport create position
getTeleport = getThingFromPos(createPos) --Teleport create position
local timeToRemove = 5 --in seconds
-- CONFIG END --
    if item.itemid == 1945 and getItemPos.itemid == idItem then
        doSendMagicEffect(itemPos,6)
        doSendMagicEffect(frompos,6)
        doCreateTeleport(1387, toPos, createPos)
        doRemoveItem(getItemPos.uid,1)
        doTransformItem(item.uid,item.itemid+1)
    	  doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid,22,"Click!")
        addEvent(doRemoveTeleport, timeToRemove * 1000)

	elseif item.itemid == 1946 then
        doTransformItem(item.uid,item.itemid-1)
    else
        doPlayerSendCancel(cid,"Sorry, not possible.")
    	
	return 1
	end
function doRemoveTeleport()
local teleport = getTileItemById(createPos, 1387)
	if teleport.uid >= 0 then
		doRemoveItem(teleport.uid)
        	doSendMagicEffect(createPos, CONST_ME_POFF)

end
end

end

Example to remove whatever you whant from position:

local teleportPos = {x=123, y=123, z=7, stackpos=1}
getTele = getThingFromPos(teleportPos)

if getTele.itemid == 1387 then
doRemoveItem(getTele.uid, 1)
end

Simple, you just need those functions!

I want to define the function doRemoveTeleport, so I put the script like this:

function doRemoveTeleport()
local teleportPos = {x=637, y=165, z=7, stackpos=1}
getTele = getThingFromPos(teleportPos)

	if getTele.itemid == 1387 then
		doRemoveItem(getTele.uid, 1) 
 		doSendMagicEffect(createPos, CONST_ME_POFF)

end
end

But this still doesn't make the teleport disappear =/

You need to addEvent to your function (onUse, onStepIn, etc)

Example:

function onUse(cid, item, position)
addEvent(doRemoveTeleport, 5*1000)
end

function doRemoveTeleport()
local teleportPos = {x=637, y=165, z=7, stackpos=1}
getTele = getThingFromPos(teleportPos)
   if getTele.itemid == 1387 then
	doRemoveItem(getTele.uid, 1) 
 	doSendMagicEffect(createPos, CONST_ME_POFF)
    end
end

You really dont need to make a function in there... but is just an example, that script above will execute the function "doRemoveTeleport" when you use the function "onUse" and then after 5 sec the addEvent will be executed

Take a look at my script, it already has an addEvent, it still doesn't work somehow. The first teleport I make never disappears, however, the teleports I make after that disapear.
