The boxes can be customised by altering the script they trigger. Simply create a placed event with the same name as the box, and then write whatever you want in that script.

And notice the REMOVE OBJECT action.
Before you criticize someone, first walk a mile in their shoes. If they get mad, you'll be a mile away. And you'll have their shoes.

Yes, that's important too. If you don't add "remove object" at the end of the script, the Box will not disappear afterwards...

Which do you mean with remove object, remove script of Destroy object. Since remove object is not a real script ;)
Grah!

He means 'remove this object'. Which is the only valid way to make Pboxes disappear. ;)
Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?

Oh wait I'll have to check for different scripts on Pboxes as well. And my list of scripts is already over 50 different ones... (I'm making a scripting help article for CH)
Grah!
