Lua Text in a book

[wsp]

Good evening,

I have a problem that I can't fix myself, the problem is I have a crafting system, and I want to have the recipes in a book (not learning or w/e just the recipes wrote down in a book), when I place a book on the ground (in my map editor) and I write a recipe in it and I start the server, the text is showed, HOWEVER, when I place the book in a chest (to make it a "quest") and I write down the text in it.
When I get the reward of that quest (the recipe book) there is no text in it.

I hope someone knows the problem.

Thanks in advance,

Kind Regards~

Here is an example:

local book = doPlayerAddItem(cid,1970,1)
doSetItemText(book,"Banor I praise your name.\nBe with me in the battle.\nBe my shield, let me be your sword.\nI will honour the godly spark in my soul. May it flourish and grow.")

Enjoy it ;]

The script is an action dude, like this:

function onUse(cid, item, frompos, item2, topos)

if item.uid == 123 then
  if getPlayerStorageValue(cid,1324) == -1 then
		doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid,22,'You have found a book.')
		local book = doPlayerAddItem(cid,1970,1)
		doSetItemText(book,"Banor I praise your name.\nBe with me in the battle.\nBe my shield, let me be your sword.\nI will honour the godly spark in my soul. May it flourish and grow.")
	else
		doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid,22,"The chest is empty.")
  end
else
  return FALSE
end

	return TRUE
end

Enjoy it ;]

In Map Editor, put actionid from actions.xml onto a chest/dresser/et cetera.

data/actions/actions.xml

<action actionid="45001" event="script" value="name_the_file_whatever_you_want.lua"/>

data/actions/name_the_file_whatever_you_want.lua

local config = {
    storage_value = 45001,
    book_id = 1970,
    book_text = "text inside\nthe book\n\nNew line."   
}

function onUse(cid, item, frompos, item2, topos)
    if getPlayerStorageValue(cid, config.storage_value) == 1 then
        doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, 22, "The chest is empty.")
        return true
    end

    doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, 22, "You have found a book.")
    local book = doPlayerAddItem(cid, config.book_id, 1)
    doSetItemText(book, config.book_text)

    return true
end
