Inactive [RPG] NPC-Quester v2.3.1 - Make NPCs give quests (links uQuest/EpicQuest and Citizens) [1000]

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.

Download:

For EpicQuest: RAR, ZIP

How to use:
To get a quest, right click a NPC who is in the config file.

Code:

/npcq help [page], shows commands.
There's too much commands to type here, so just use the help command to see them all.

Big thanks to the creators of:
uQuest (http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/rp...st-and-citizens-860.20677/page-14#post-402289)
Citizens

 

Thank you for saying!
Fixed it and it will be in the next update.

 

hmm is uquest 860 ready??? Or is that not really of concern?

 

uQuest works for me, so I can just create this plugin.
I've read there are some difficulties tho.

You can just try I suppose.

 

I got an error:

I see you got this error when you typed a command.
What command exactly?
Please give me both the command as seen in /help 1 or 2, and how you typed it.

 

I have one question before I add this EXCELLENT plugin, if this plugin is running, are users still allows to use the /uquest give command to get a quest through uQuest without using an NPC? If so, is there a way to stop that? I want my players to ONLY be able to get quests through NPC's.

 

If you don't want people to use the "/q give" command, just remove it from the permissions
I think the permission node is "uquest.canquest.give".

 

i typed /npcq help

/help 1&2 - nothing special, default commands

 

Ah that.
That is fixed in the next version.

If everything goes right, it should be ready in a little bit.

 

This is a very nice Plugin, Thx.
But can you make a Video-Tutorial?
Thx.

 

Well yeah, it can get complicated from the next update.
I shall make a tutorial after the next update, which will be the update with quest chains.
I'll explain how everything works and how to give it an RPG feeling then too.

For the next update, I will try to explain it as good as I can.

 

Random quests from a list would be nice. Say a config file you could put in

Code:

Trader: 15 16 23 25

and then instead of /npcq add [npc name] [quest number] you could do /npcq add [npc name] [quest group name] and a random quest from that list would be picked. This is also how you could do the chain quests. Same setup but instead of random it would go 15, then to 16, ect...

 

I keep getting 'derp derp2' when I right click my npcs... Using the default quest set for uquest. I've tried 52 and 53 (including 0 in the count), and I've tried naming the npc (Uweh) both with and without the &a for his name color. x_x I hope I can get it to work!

 

That's a pretty good idea, I'll put it on my todo list.
I do already have another idea on how to do chain quests tho, thanks for the idea

Yeah sorry, I forgot to remove that in my previous version, please wait a little bit more, the update should almost be done!

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

 

Alrighty. Thanks for the awesome plugin! I've been wanting this forever!

 

I'll defiantly be making a video showcasing the features once my team and I have the intro section of our RPG world completed. I'll post the link here if you like. Just some free publicity for this awesome plugin

 

Awesome!

Also, keep close track of this thread now!
There's only one small bug to squash and I release the update!

 

So this REQUIRES Citizens?

 

Yes.
That is kind of the idea of this plugin, to link uQuest and Citizens.

I think you want some of the future features implemented into uQuest itself, correct?

 

That too, but I was just asking. thanks for the quick response.

 

No problemo

Bugs sorted out, now adding some last checks to prevent errors if either "specific" or "random" in the config is empty.

Uploaded the update!

I'll write the new tutorial and all that now, but you can get it and see if you understand it like this as well.

got same error:

Code:

01:51:12 [SEVERE] null
org.bukkit.command.CommandException: Unhandled exception executing command 'npcq
' in plugin NPCQuester v1.2

&

Code:

01:53:01 [SEVERE] Could not pass event ENTITY_TARGET to Citizens
java.lang.NullPointerException

 

When did you get those errors?
I also forgot to change the version number in the plugin, uploading a fix with that in a bit (no plugin changes).

EDIT: Uploaded with proper plugin version.

 

when i type /npcq add ....

 

I mean the full command.

For example: "/npcq add Randomguy 4 true" to add Randomguy with quest 4 and make Randomguy the only one with quest 4

 

also have trouble with "/npcq add Randomguy 4 true" :S

 

Are you using the new config setup?
I've changed a few things

 

yep

 

Could you give me a bit more detailed error?
Give me the whole thing.
