[TFS 1.0] x Item(s) spawn at x,y,z, location every x amount of seconds (or minutes) [Solved!]

[Jaed Le Raep]

Hey, I was wondering if anyone would be able to create such a script template for me. Compatible with TFS 1.0 please

Edit: Also, if you could, maybe have a config in which you can give "x" Item that is spawned, an Action or UID.

local t = {
    -- itemid, count, position, actionId
    {2195, 1, {1000, 1000, 7}, 12345},
    {2487, 1, {1001, 1000, 7}, 12346}
}

function onThink(interval)
    for i = 1, #t do
        local v = t[i]
        local position = Position(v[3][1], v[3][2], v[3][3])
        local item = Item(Game.createItem(v[1], v[2], position):getUniqueId())
        item:setActionId(v[4])
        position:sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_TELEPORT)
    end
    return true
end

Just to clarify is it

local t = {
{itemid, item count, {posx, posy, posz}, actionid},

or

local t = {
{itemid, item count, {posx, posy, posz}, milliseconds},

Yes, that's right.

Ah, it would be the first one as onThink is responsible for the time.. Thanks soo much!

I did this:

local t = {
    -- itemid, count, position, actionId
    {2671, 1, {1487, 954, 7}, 0},
}

function onThink(1000)
    for i = 1, #t do
        local v = t[i]
        local position = Position(v[3][1], v[3][2], v[3][3])
        local item = Item(Game.createItem(v[1], v[2], position):getUniqueId())
        item:setActionId(v[4])
        position:sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_TELEPORT)
    end
    return true
end

But when I reload globalevents it states that no interval has been set.

Also, the globalevents xml states this:

<globalevent name="Beginning Ham" script="beginning ham.lua" />

 

[Ninja]

You need to set the interval in globalevents.xml

<globalevent name="Beginning Ham" interval="60000" script="beginning ham.lua" />

Okay,I found the issue thanks to a wonderful friend named @Cadyan who helped me with the troubleshoot. The fixed version is below!

<globalevent name="Beginning Ham" interval="1000" script="beginning ham.lua" />

local t = {
    -- itemid, count, position, actionId
    {2671, 1, {1487, 954, 7}, 0},
}

function onThink(1000)
    for i = 1, #t do
        local v = t[i]
        local position = Position(v[3][1], v[3][2], v[3][3])
        local item = Item(Game.createItem(v[1], v[2], position):getUniqueId())
        item:setActionId(v[4])
        position:sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_TELEPORT)
    end
    return true
end

Explanation:
You set the interval in the xml, and 1000 = 1 second (1000 milliseconds). Once you do that, you configure the item id, its position, and its actionid in the script itself, and you can have multiple items per 1 script (thanks to @Ninja!).

Edit: Dang Ninja, you are quick! I got it fixed before you posted, but I think this post will be useful for anyone wanting the finalized version along with an explanation
