Hello! I have got a question and it's connected with tables in LUA.

Let's say that I would like to send a specific effect to 5 coordination on the map.
I've created table that looks like this:

LUA: 
local energy = {
a = {x=788, y=976, z=11},
b = {x=796, y=979, z=11},
c = {x=786, y=986, z=11},
d = {x=791, y=981, z=11},
e = {x=790, y=978, z=11}
}

And I would like to send the effects to every sqm from table by one code line (if it is possible)

LUA: 
doSendMagicEffect(config.energy[ALL PARAMETERS], CONST_ME_ENERGYHIT)

Something like this would be amazing, but I do not know how to call all the parametrs from the table.

I tried to find tables tutorial on the forum but didn't find anything for tfs 1.2.

Ah I was confused with distance effects, not magic effects.
Here's code with 1.2 style, rather than 0.4.
LUA: 
function sendMagicEffectList(list, effect) -- function definition, put this somewhere in your lib files
    for i = 1, #list do
        local pos = list[i]
        pos:sendMagicEffect(effect)
    end
end

local energy = {
    Position(788, 976, 11),
    Position(796, 979, 11),
    Position(786, 986, 11),
    Position(791, 981, 11),
    Position(790, 978, 11)
}

sendMagicEffectList(energy, CONST_ME_ENERGYHIT) -- usage

Are you looking to send a->b->c->d->e? Or are you trying to send from a center position towards a, b, c, d, e?

I mean I don't want to receive a shot effect from position X to position Y - doSendMagicEffect( ? , CONST_ME_ENERGYHIT) is fine.

All can happen in one time as with this code:

Code: 
function onUse(player, item, fromPosition, target, toPosition, isHotkey)

doSendMagicEffect({x=788, y=971, z=11}, CONST_ME_ENERGYHIT)
doSendMagicEffect({x=788, y=972, z=11}, CONST_ME_ENERGYHIT)
doSendMagicEffect({x=788, y=973, z=11}, CONST_ME_ENERGYHIT)
doSendMagicEffect({x=788, y=974, z=11}, CONST_ME_ENERGYHIT)
doSendMagicEffect({x=788, y=975, z=11}, CONST_ME_ENERGYHIT)

end

But as you can see it's not the best looking way :P.

Anyway would be amazing to learn how to send a->b->c->d->e and send from center towards a, b, c, d, e.
More knowledge is just better even if I will not use it right now.
