Event_discover_item
 

How exactly can I make this useful, as in, displaying when someone finds an item?

Depends what you want to do with it. Every item? Specific item(s)? First time server wide or per person?

Clever qglobal writing and server wide messages should take care of most of what you'd want to do with it, but with an untargeted question like what you provided, a bit hard to give any specific help.

Let me elaborate.

What I am trying to do is.

something simple like that, where I can have it when someone discovers ANY item, it will shout worldwide and give the link of the discovered item, I'm not sure how to incorporate this, I have it semi working as in, when someone discovers an item is shouts "$name has discovered" Usually I can figure this stuff out on my own, but i'm at a loss.

Just use $itemid, it's exported when EVENT_DISCOVER_ITEM gets called.

http://code.google.com/p/projecteqem.../embparser.cpp will tell you what gets exported for each event.

Set up something like if you want to have it spit out a link for the item, then throw that variable into the shout.

Ahh, awesome thanks so much

You want quest::varlink() above.

Duly noted and changed, thanks Tabasco, it's not something I've messed with too much yet. :)
