What about harvesting?

As far as I can see harvesting is disabled at the moment and this makes it impossible to test quest lines which involve harvesting action. Is it possible to enable it?

Harvesting should work fine. Any quest that's written that requires it, it should be working. If not, post it here and Scatman may take a look when he gets home from flying down mountainsides.

"Herbs of Healing and Growth" quest (given by Matron of the Nursery in Greater Faydark) - unable to harvest "a faeicia leaf herb". After "Gathering" action finishes I get "Invalid target for this spell" error in chat log
P.S. I've posted this issue via /bug and will also post any other i'll find via bug tracker.

Oh oh! I can add to that. There's a quest in the evil fae newbie zone (can't recall the name) where you have to harvest some weeds, you can click on it and it does the harvesting timer bar, but you don't actually collect anything. You can harvest the same node forever!

yeah, same here: u don't get anything after gathering except for "Invalid target for this spell" and harvesting node never disappears
And the same is true for ordinary harvesting nodes (not quest related ones) like roots, crumbled stones & etc

Sounds like something is wrong with your harvest spell. In the spells table, target_type needs to be 1 and in the spell_tiers table, range needs to be greater than 0 (5 is a good number for these). The server recently started enforcing the spell values, which is why you probably just started noticing the problem even though the problem was always there.

Hmm, I just checked all my harvest node ranges, and they are all 5. target_type = 1. If you are saying that not a single harvesting node works quest or not, then something is wrong in the code. But if it's just a quest (or a few quests gathering items), then we'll need to look into it further.
Thanks for the report.

yes, and the quest I mentioned is not the only one with this issue.

Harvesting the faecia herb (and other harvestables in other zones) works just fine on our dev server. Once the data is transferred over to TessEQ2, it'll be fixed.

Scat (and team) if you ever need someone to test something on Dev, you can /lock 0 to unlock the dev server long enough for them to try something out. They can then make a toon, test the script, and get the hell off again
Up to you though. Dev is private otherwise. I'll try to move data this weekend, if I can move my arms after all this cabinet building... ugh.

Harvesting (both quest and regular resource nodes) works now!!! --> bug_id 351 can be changed to "Fixed"
But harvesting faeicia leaf herb does not update quests status (bug_id 374)
P.S. i'd consider it a major fix - i think it'd be quite reasonable and useful for testers if u change rev. number in Tess welcome message (so i won't need to re-test bunch of stuff almost every day to see if it's fixed or no)

When I fixed the harvesting, I was on the Matron's quest to gather the leaves, and I was getting a quest update. You may delete the quest and try again? We'll look into it anyway, but pretty sure leaf gathering updates are working.

Tess is still at rev 370. The code did not change to fix these bugs, the data did, and the data has no "version" since it's not yet released in any fashion.
