56    @brief
57        A QuestEffectBeacon is a physical entity in the game which can (under some condition(s)) invoke a number QuestEffects on players meeting the condition(s).
58        The conditions under which the QuestEffects are invoked on the player are defined by Triggers.
59        A QuestEffectBeacon can be executed a defined number of times.
60        A QuestEffectBeacon can be inactive or active.
61       
62        Creating a QuestEffectBeacon through XML goes as follows:
63       
64        <QuestEffectBeacon times=n> //Where 'n' is eighter a number >= 0, which means the QuestEffectBeacon can be executed n times. Or n = -1, which means the QuestEffectBeacon can be executed an infinite number of times.
65            <effects>
66                <QuestEffect /> //A list of QuestEffects, invoked when the QuestEffectBeacon is executed, see QuestEffect for the full XML representation.
67                ...
68                <QuestEffect />
69            </effects>
70            <events>
71                <execute>
72                    <EventListener event=eventIdString />
73                </execute>
74            </events>
75            <attached>
76                <PlayerTrigger name=eventIdString /> //A PlayerTrigger triggering the execution of the QuestEffectBeacon.
77            </attached>
78        </QuestEffectBeacon>
