NPC-Quester - Make NPCs give quests!
Version: 2.3.1

If you ever wanted a plugin that would make your NPCs give out quests, this is the plugin for you.
Lots of features to be added, so keep on the lookout!

Features:

• uQuest:
  • NPCs give random quests
  • Specified NPCs give out a specific quest and restricted those quests if wanted
  • If wanted, make players have a specified item in their hand with a specified amount, and if you want it, take it from them too
  • Quest chains!
  • Make NPCs give out the quest only once
• EpicQuest:
  • Give solo quests
  • Give group quests

How to install: (read carefully!)


First off, required plugins:
uQuest or EpicQuest (quests)
Citizens (NPCs)
Permissions (commands, not neccesary but nice to have)

uQuest:

Now, to give your NPCs quests, use the ingame commands to make your NPCs quests!​

You can also copy paste one of the examples and type your own settings there if you find that easier too.​

EpicQuest:

Use in-game commands to add NPCs or change the config​

Names are case sensitive!

When you are done adding your questers, /reload your server to load them.

I suggest adding repeatable quests (haven't used the plugin yet, they may already exist)! Also, are you a native English speaker?

 

Yes it requires Permissions.
So that was the problem all along

If you insist on not adding Permissions, I can add a check if someone is OP instead of having the permission.

You can repeat all quests all the time at this moment.
I'm not a native English speaker, I'm from the Netherlands. Does it look like I'm a native English speaker? xD

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

Oh, well then you should add one-time quests! XD

Actually, your English is really good- I only questioned your native speaking-ness when I saw this; it's a little awkward:

It should be:

I've never really thought about the rule for much vs. many, but it seems that "many" should be used when you can count what you're talking about and "much" should be used when it's uncountable (e.g., "too much sugar," "too much homework," etc.).

 

Update v1.3.1
Fixed a few bugs

NOTE:
Check the config again, the arrangement of the branches has changed.
They won't work if they are not in that order!!

 

I have both yours and uQuest reinstalled with vanilla settings, and now I'm not getting an error--but right clicking the npc I assigned a quest does nothing. I set the quest amount to 53 as there is in vanilla settings... and I think my branches are all correct.

Uweh:
iteminhand:
amount: 1
item: 1
active: false
consume: false
thisNPConly: 'true'
quest: 1

Again... no errors but no effect. Did I overlook something? :S Everything seems to load correctly on serverboot.

 

Ah shit, I'm an idiot lol. Thanks, I didn't even think about that!

 

Damn it, I can't get it to work now either...
I will improve the file handling now.

 

cool good work will update and test when I get home

Many thanks

 

Update v1.3.1a
You should be able to get quests now.

 

Hello there,

tried to set up your plugin but had some problems with it:

First (on help page 2) :
/npcq item id [npc name] [id]

gives me the result:
/[id] uses item [npc name] to accept a quest.

so i guess this should be:
/npcq item id [id] [npc name]



Next thing (on help page 2):
/npcq item active [npc name] [true/false]

gives me the result:
/[true/false] now needs an item to give a quest.



Same as (on help page 2):
/npcq item consume [npc name] [true/false]

gives me the result:
/[true/false] now consumes the item specified.



Next thing I found (on help page 2) :
/npcq item amount [npc name] [number]

gives me the result:
/[number] needs [number] items to give a quest.



Haven't tried to set up one quest npc without the use of an item! Would be great if you could check this plz
Thanks for the plugin, have fun & enjoy ur day

 

Can u add older versions ?
I use 818 and it wont work

 

Can you give me the full error(s) you get?

 

4 things

1. This does not work at all unless active is set to true. (in the config) it is not by default

2. When I complete a quest in which it should take items it takes them but they stay in my inventory slot until I try to place them then they disappear.

3. When consume is set to false I cannot complete a quest using the npc.

4. When I right click the npc to get a quest or complete a quest it gives me all info about him. This should be command based and not when you right click.

 

I think you haven't put an amount in your config file, is that correct?
It should also say that right before that error if it's true.

These are the comments I need, thank you.
I will work on it now.

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

I forgot to mention in my previous post, you forgot a : on one of the lines in the config file. This is what is giving Fuji that error.

active: true to be specific.

 

I use the german quests from uqest

and the error still happend

<,<

 

it should be active: true just add that : in

 

Fixxed

 

After observation, I see that part of the code is not working...
I'm trying so squash that bug at this moment.

Sorry for bringing out such buggy release, but I'm not SUPER experienced with coding yet, and this is my biggest and most complicated plugin up to now

The new file reader should be alot better tho, you don't have to get the branch arrangement in a certain order anymore.

 

remove everything from the config file except amount: # the # being the number of quests in the quest config.

Also you are using an outdated version of uquest.

 

Ill fixx the problem
But new one :

 

Get uquest 1.5 and make sure you are using the correct syntax in the config file. As far as I know color codes do not work with it if that's what you were going for? #FFFD is in the config for uquest somewhere and it should not be.

 

Where i can download 1.5 ?

 

http://hawox.no-ip.info/

also make sure to use the latest craftbukkit build 860 recommended using 1.6.6 beta

 

Ill get v 1.5 but :

 

conversation started so as to not spam this thread anymore. please respond to me there and I will help you get this figured out.

 

The problem seems to be that my plugin doesn't read the configuration at all, causing all these errors.
I have no idea how this happened, but I'll look into it.

 

if i type "/npcq help" i get a error. The error is "An internal error occurred while attempting to perform this command.
Please help

 

That was with one of the previous versions, but you should wait with updating for a little bit, trying to sort out some bugs atm.
