Inactive [FUN/ECON/DEV] uQuest v1.50 - Overly customizable quest system [793 - 602]

As most of you can guess I have not worked on this plugin in a long time. I'm working full time at a grocery store as well as going to college. I literally have no time for sleep let alone Minecraft. Recently someone has contacted me saying they are working on my plugin. I appreciate his work and effort while I am away. This is a link to his topic. His download can be found at hawox.no-ip.info​

HiMyNameIsAJ - Creating a uQuest website
Looking for:

• Someone to make a nice looking website for uquest (Not my cup of java).
• Someone to add MySql support.
• Plugin attachment devs!
• Someone with ideas on different quest types!
• People to write some random quests to be thrown in the defaults!

-----------------------Plugin summery below this point-----------------------​

~Comes preloaded with 53 quests!~

Support for: (You don't NEED any of these for the plugin to work.)

Code:

Permissions (but not needed!)
  -"uQuest.CanQuest.*" - Allows all these sub permissions
    -"uQuest.CanQuest.done"
    -"uQuest.CanQuest.amount"
    -"uQuest.CanQuest.stats'
    -"uQuest.CanQuest.info"
    -"uQuest.CanQuest.give"
    -"uQuest.CanDropQuest"

  -"uQuest.CanReloadQuests" - Allows the use of /reloadquests
  -"uQuest.CanReloadQuestConfig" - Allows the use of /reloadquestconfig

 iConomy (but not needed!)
 BOSEconomy (Again, not needed!)
 Essentials! (Again, not needed!)

Alright here goes, theres a lot to cover so I may miss something on this first go threw! Want a better way to get money into your server economy that selling items to the server or random lottery's? Do you like QUESTS?!?! Do you want your users to compete to see who is a better quester? Then uQuest might be for you!


uQuest offers your users a simple way to quest! No need to walk miles and miles to a random NPC or click on some block at spawn. All they need to do is type '/uquest give' and uQuest will give them a random quest from it's database! A yml file is provided where you type out each quest for your users. That's right. YOU can decide how many quests there are, what they are, and how you want your users to do them (creating and editing this file are explained on the wiki). You can broadcast every x quests someone finishes to the server as well as give out rewards for x amount of quests. I'll leave the rest for the features section, just thought I'd get you hooked with that :3 If you grab the .zip (which you need to if you want to store your users in a SQLite database!) I have included 53 quests inside!

All of that not enough? Well theres an API! Other plugin authors can use this as a base for their own plugins!

Here's a quick screenshot of what the text looks like:



~Features~
(I may miss a few, there's quite a bit)

~Quest Types~
All of these can have specific locations set to them! (Can only do in this area etc)
(More to come I promise!!)

~Commands~
(More to come I promise!!)

~Watch out~
With great power (of customization)... Come's great responsibility.... There is a lot that can go wrong if you don't pay attention when your changing files. Thankfully, I've tried to have the plugin spew out as many warnings as it could on the servers start. Always give it a check to make sure the plugin loaded all of your work!!!

~Plugin Attachments~
(These plugins add new features to the basic uQuest system)
_________________________________________
uQuest-MoreModCommands
Just started this as an example of what people can do. All it currently has is /qadmin givequest
OP's and people with the permissions (not required for this either) node 'uQuest.MoreModCommands' can use it.
_________________________________________
uQuest-ShowTracker
Simply shows someones progress on a quest everytime they do something for it. IE. I punch a log as part of my quest (grey text)Log Punches 7/10.
Just put the jar into your plugins folder and it will work on it's own!
Updates needed: Move quests | Picking up items. | Support for uQuest levels
_________________________________________
uQuest-AutoComplete
Completes quests automagicly! Works with the same methods as showtracker so it has the same flaws. There is this weird bug when running both at the same time that spams some weird extra text. Try to ignore it for now.
Just put the jar into your plugins folder and it will work on it's own!
Updates needed: Move quests | Picking up items. | Unknown status on working with quest levels. | Odd text bug with showtracker/this mix.
_________________________________________


~Plugins using the API~
(These plugins use the uQuest API to shape their own plugin)
PuzzleQuest

Since people don't read the above, I'll post this again here so I don't have to write the reply back to this anymore.

 

I can't seem to find a list of nodes to set Permissions with, could a kind soul gimmie a linky. I did try the wiki

 

It's in the post:

@woodzy Should be fixed. It's the same download link but I updated the download. Just get the new 1.03.

@bizzybusk I'm not at my programing PC right now so I can't test it out. It looks right.
1.) Don't be a dick to the one's who are trying to help you.
2.) Console say anything? You never posted your config, your startup, or an error when your in-game text said "Internal error." The help I can give is limited. As the topic (Which people don't seem to read...?) says:

Im sorry for being an ass, i just got alot of work to do on my server.

 

Does this work with 617?

Trying to use it on the 556 that works with 1.4, thats the file it said to use but I also tried the 1.03 which resulted in the exact same error message.

P.s. I love the idea of this, could add so much to my server you have no idea!

 

I can't give support to older versions because I can't fix the code of the past.
This:

Means that one of your quest objectives is not formated right. I need to work on the errors it displays when a quest dose not load properly. That's the next thing I'm going to add. Boytoy is coming over to my hose today so I'll need to work on it tomorrow.

@bizzybusk The same thing. Are you sure the quest you posted is the one that having the issues? it does not like one of the objectives you are giving it. OH! Your gather is formated wrongly. Gather quests have an item field! I'm an idiot for not seeing that. It should look like this:

Code:

0:
                  Name: The Helmet of the Defender
                  Start_Info: OOoh, can i haz der shiny helmet?!
                  Finish_Info: Hehe, i guess i could have the shiny helmet ;).
                  Rewards:
                    Money: 200
                    Item:
                      Item_ID: 302
                      Display_Name: Chain Helmet
                      Amount: 1
                      Durability: 0
                  Objectives:
                    0:
                      Type: Gather
                        Item:
                          Item_ID: 302
                          Display_Name: Chain Helmet
                          Amount: 1
                          Durability: 0

I think that's right. Like I said I can't currently test it. So applaud for me! :3

 

Ive just discovered that there's nothing wrong with the format! i tried using one of your finished quests, and it gives me the same error message. i used

Code:

0:
Name: First things first.
Start_Info: Help me get started! Make me the beginners essentials.
Finish_Info: Thank you very much!
Rewards:
Money: 100
Objectives:
0:

Display_Name: Wooden Pickaxe
Amount: 1
Durability: 0
3:
Type: Gather
Item:
Item_ID: 272
Display_Name: Stone Sword
Amount: 1
Durability: 0

hm, there arent any internal error when i added it to numer 52...
the main problem is finding the quest lol..

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

 

I can´t figure out how to give two or more items as a reward. The following shows only the Diamond Leggings as a reward when the quest is taken. Where am I screwing up?

Code:

0:
  Name: Creepers
  Start_Info: Test
  Finish_Info: Test
  Rewards:
    Money: 1300
    Item:
      Item_ID: 311
      Display_Name: Diamond Chestplate
      Amount: 1
      Durability: 0
    Item:
      Item_ID: 312
      Display_Name: Diamond Leggings
      Amount: 1
      Durability: 0
  Objectives:
    0:
      Type: Kill
      Display_Name: Creepers Killed
      Objective_ID: creeper
      Amount: 16

 

Same here, got this error :

µQuest 1.03, CB 617
I didn't changed anything in my quests, i just updated to the new yml format :s

 

Hey you should make it so that you can make a quest to kill players

 

Just so you're more aware, the plugin has only been updated to work for 602. Just saying.

 

Exact same error with 602 :/

 

Hey all.

Created a quest to test but it gives me an internal error:

Is it alright?
With the default quests it works.

 

getting it now hopeing for the best!!

 

@morais17 and everyone else with that quest error. Your quests need to have the same spacing. 2 spaces for every indent, no tabs. If you do the spacing wrong it WILL NOT WORK. Just like everyone other yml file. The spacing is what lets you know what field is whiten what field.

@bizzybusk Yes the format IS WRONG for a gather quest. It needs the item field. Look at it again. Also, you need the spacing like I posted above. I've put some work into the GUI but it's way more complicated that the previous one with the new quest format. It's going to take some time.

@Basherzors Odd thats most likely my mess-up in the code. When you finish the quest does it give you both or just the one?

@Arno00 You didn't post your quest files. If you read the error you would see it's a problem with the loading of the quests. I'm going to work on the errors it displays so people can see exactly what quest that they are having problems with. (I hope I can with the mess of the CRUD file it has become x.x)

 

Here is my quest file, as I said i didn't changed anything, it was working fine with txt files

Quests.yml : http://pastebin.com/m8gfSTDS
new.Quests.yml : http://pastebin.com/r36tXGUh

I tried to remove every quest but the first one (0) and i got the same error :/

 

Odd well if your using the default quest files with nothing changed why don't you just delete them and let the plugin generate new ones? I have not tested this on 617 yet and I'll put some work on this tomorrow. Cheers.

 

hope to see the Uquest updated to CB#617 i cant wait!! and i just LOVE the GUI u have ingame for it

 

Fixed my error. That was because the quest #0 called in new.Quests was not the same as the quest #0 in Quests. I didn't understood the use of new.quests :/ Thanks anyway it's working now ! (with CB 617)

Got a new error now ... Seriously i don't get it, it's working fine in local, but when i put the files on my server it's all fucked up and uQuest won't load :/ It's this fucking YML and accent ...
I'm using UTF8 encoding. It's working on local.

SO i removed every accent of my quest, it's now working. I said that YML is a real pain with foreign language accents :/ Tried with different encoding types, neither of them worked so i removed them all :/



AlsoquestScaling is still not working. QuestScaling is set to true, I'm quest lvl 1 and the reward / objective of the quest doesn't change ;(

If you implement QuestScaling, could we choose betwenn objective + money scaling, and only money scaling ? Because scaling the objective + money is the same thing as doint the quest 2 times (or more).

 

This works on cb 627 without any error and on 617 too.

Have you thought of addind something like quest failed?

Example:

A quest where we need to collect some wool, but if we kill a sheep, the quest is failed and it removes one point from the player.

I tried to gave 2 bones as a reward, but when we accept the quest the rewards says: 2 null.

Is there any chance for MySQL support?

 

Hey Hawox,

love your plugin. It's great. But i got some errors while trying it on the newest Dev-Snapshot (b640jnks). It can't load your uQuest.jar because of "invalid characters". Here's the error Code:

Is there anyway to fix that? I want to use your plugin in the future! [And no, there is no way for me to get back to 617 cause of WorldEdit/WorldGuard, which are essential for me]

Greetings,
Skudrinka

 

did you add support to hide the reward for the users. OOnly visible after they do the quest? if so where?

 

Worldguard is working fine on 617. Also don't ask about an error if this plugin is not supporting your bukkit version :/

 

Hey guys I've been rather busy with IRL stuff as of late. My mate has this week off and has actually had time to spend with me IRL. I'm going to make a git so people can post some input and what-not. I have things to work on and I will get an update out. This thread dose not seem to want to send me emails when it updates. When tehres a new stable bukkit build that will not work for this send me a direct e-mail and I'll post what I have done. I'd actually like to get some work done with this release instead of small bug fixes.

TLDR: Life is picking up again, making a GIT for others input, and will get an update out soon.

 

this is a very useful plugin, im glad you made it, it's so great and works pretty well!
i have 1 suggestion if it's not too much to ask, is it possible to make a quest so you gotta kill a certain amount of "Player" and then get rewards for it?
would be awesome, hope you send me a feedback on this suggestion, Thanks =)

Derp.

 

Sure sounds simple enough. Can do.

 

Awesome, can't wait =)

oh yes 1 more thing, is it possible to modify quest levels by a command?

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

 

Not at the moment sorry. I'll need to make a command to reload the config file as well.

 

ah i see, hope you can get it to work if your gonna add it =)
