Description
x,y,z are de coordinates where the effect will show on the ground. Type is a number 0 or 2 from the table below (other effects will not be played, only effect 0(bolt) and 2(ground level) seems valid, probably cause they don't accept a map point). Item_id is the base id (this must be a "base" item ID - which you can identify as an [ITEMDEF 0xxx] where xxx is a number not a name) of the item or animation. If the ID is a animation, you likely want to use the first id of the animation loop. Speed is a number determining the speed of the animation and the travel speed if it's a projectile, with 1 being the slowest and higher numbers being faster. Loop specifies the time the animation will play, 16 is a good default. This is NOT frames of animation, as a high speed results in more frames per given loop setting. Explode is a boolean defining whether the projectile should make an explosion animation when reaching the character.
EffectLocation Types
| Effect Number | Short | Long Description | |
| 0 | Standard flying object | The object will follow its target until it hits, and then explode if that flag is set | |
| 2 | Ground-based effect | This effect will stay at a particular point on the map until it expires. As a result, it will appear lower than a type 3 effect. This is the only way to get an effect onto an item. |
