Quest Log System

Quest Log System

Basic Structure of NPC

First of all you must have a knowledge on basic scripting, if not please kindly Click Here!.

Quest Window

The Quest Window or Quest Journal (Opened via Alt+U) allows the player to view all quests their character has started but not yet completed (Except for instance dungeon quests and Battlegrounds instances, which always remain once started). To place a quest in the Inactive tab, right click once on it and the name will turn gray. It will then appear on the Inactive tab instead of Active. Right clicking the name again will bring it back to the Active tab. Moving the quest back and forth has no effect on whether you can continue it or not. Not every quest has a quest window component. Those quests who have quest window walkthroughs can be found in this category as well as by having their infobox in gold. Additionally, the Quest Window guides are not comprehensive, and do not specify the exact coordinates of the next NPC or location the player must visit. It is highly recommended to continue using the wiki guides along with the in-game walkthroughs.

Quest Database - Adding Quest

Structure

{
	Id: Quest ID
	Name: "Quest Name"

	)
	Drops: (
	{
		ItemId: item_to_drop
		Rate: Drop_Rate
		MobId: Mob_ID_to_match
	},
	)
},

Quest ID - ID of the quest, must increment and should not be duplicated.

Time Limit - Time limit for the quest to be finish in seconds.
Targets - Monsters killing list contain mob ids and count.

Quest Log Commands

Set Quest

*setquest <ID>;

Place quest of <ID> in the users quest log, the state of which is "active".

Example

prontera,xx,xx,4	script	SetQuest	51,{
setquest 65000;	// This will add the Quest ID 65000 to your Quest Window.
}

This sample will add the quest "Quest - Poring Hunt" which I stated on the Adding Quest. Note: The example is just a simple NPC that will add Quest ID 65000 every time you click it, You can add conditions so that it can only be taken once.

Complete Quest

*completequest <ID>{,<ID2>};

Change the state for the given quest <ID> to "complete" and remove from the users quest log.

If a second quest id of greater value is specified, all quests between the two will be completed.

Example

prontera,xx,xx,4	script	CompleteQuest	51,{
completequest 65000;	// This will change the state of the quest to "complete"
set zeny,zeny + 100;   //just add line like this if you want to give zeny reward if a player finish the quest.
getitem 501,1;         //just add line like this if you want to give item reward if a player finish the quest.
}

Erase Quest

*erasequest <ID>{,<ID2>};

Remove the quest of the given <ID> from the user's quest log.

If a second quest id of greater value is specified, all quests between the two will be erased.

Example

prontera,xx,xx,4	script	EraseQuest	51,{
erasequest 65000;	// This will remove the quest to your Quest Window.
}

Change Quest

*changequest <ID>,<ID2>;

Remove quest of the given <ID> from the user's quest log. Add quest of the <ID2> to the the quest log, and the state is "active".

}

Check Quest Progress

*questprogress(<ID>{,PLAYTIME|HUNTING})

If no additional argument supplied, return the state of the quest:

0 = Quest not started (not in quest log)

*questactive(<ID>)

if(!questactive(65000)) { //Quest is Inactive
mes "[Jelly]";
mes "Quest is Inactive";
close;
} else if(!questprogress(65000)) { //Quest Not started yet 
mes "[Jelly]";
mes "Quest Not Started";
close;
} else if(questactive(65000)) { //Quest is Active
mes "[Jelly]";
mes "Quest is Active!";
close;
} else if(questprogress(65000) == 2) {	// Quest finished.
mes "[Jelly]";
mes "Quest Finished!";
completequest 65000;
close;
} 
}

If parameter "PLAYTIME" is supplied:

close;
} else if (questprogress(65000,HUNTING) == 1) {
mes "[Jelly]";
mes "You haven't killed all of the target monsters.";
close;
} else if (questprogress(65000,HUNTING) == 2) {
completequest 65000;
set zeny,zeny+100;      //Zeny Reward
getitem 501,1;          // Item Reward

mes "Quest Finished";
close;
}

		the NPC. )
