Hello everyone,
I've created a script that activates a global experience, skill and loot boost upon using a basin, shrine or any other object you desire. It is configured to get specified amount of money from bank balance and inventory of a player at the same time.
It features for example:
1. data/scripts/actions/worldBoostExp.lua
2. data/events/events.xml
make sure to have these set at "1"
3. data/events/scripts/player.lua
inside
inside
4. data/lib/core/container.lua
inside
5. and finally in data/lib/core/position.lua, at the end of the file insert this function (not made by me)

I've created a script that activates a global experience, skill and loot boost upon using a basin, shrine or any other object you desire. It is configured to get specified amount of money from bank balance and inventory of a player at the same time.
It features for example:
- change of used object for the duration of the boost
- constant orange description over the object with cooldown until the end of the boost
- broadcast to every player online at the start and at the end of the boost
- gold consumption from backpack and bank balance simultaneously
- based on globalstorage value, not db, so it disappears after server restart/crash
1. data/scripts/actions/worldBoostExp.lua
LUA:
local config = {
basinPosition = Position(1993, 1324, 7),
basinEmpty = 28317,

basin:getPosition():sendAnimatedText(config.textBoostHasEnded)
broadcastMessage(config.textBoostHasEnded .. " {#"..config.textcolor.."}", MESSAGE_STATUS_WARNING)
else
print("World Boost reset event error: cannot locate the basin.")
end

local function displayTimeLeft()
