KExpire XP

by Kyonides Arkanthes

Introduction

This scriptlet exists in order to let you make your items expire either after walking a long distance or time is up just because. That means that it will replace them with useless items automatically. Should I feel sorry for all of you players now?

Script

Code:

# * KExpire XP
#   Scripter : Kyonides-Arkanthes
#   2019-02-27

#   This scriptlet allows you to setup items that will expire because the team
#   walked a long distance or time is up. Then it will replace it with a useless
#   item to piss off the player. XD

  # ItemID => [NewItemID, :step or :time, steps or seconds], etc.
