Multi-Step Quest Taskgroup Example

[thefoof]

For a quest with multiple steps within a single taskgroup at once, here's one way to handle it. First add all the steps in the taskgroup at once, like this:

Code: Select all

function Init(Quest)
    AddQuestRewardCoin(Quest, math.random(6,70), math.random(1,3), 0, 0)
	AddQuestStepObtainItem(Quest, 1, "Harvest some elm lumber.", 3, 100, "I must harvest some crafting supplies in a nearby low-risk adventure area. Harvest nodes can generally be found on the ground in most outdoor adventure regions.", 826, 12098)
    AddQuestStepObtainItem(Quest, 2, "Harvest some roots.", 3, 100, "I must harvest some crafting supplies in a nearby low-risk adventure area. Harvest nodes can generally be found on the ground in most outdoor adventure regions.", 200, 11637)
    AddQuestStepObtainItem(Quest, 3, "Mine some tin clusters.", 3, 100, "I must harvest some crafting supplies in a nearby low-risk adventure area. Harvest nodes can generally be found on the ground in most outdoor adventure regions.", 3391, 14463) 
	AddQuestStepObtainItem(Quest, 4, "Mine some lead clusters.", 3, 100, "I must harvest some crafting supplies in a nearby low-risk adventure area. Harvest nodes can generally be found on the ground in most outdoor adventure regions.", 1086, 8808)
	AddQuestStepObtainItem(Quest, 5, "Fish up some sunfish.", 3, 100, "I must harvest some crafting supplies in a nearby low-risk adventure area. Harvest nodes can generally be found on the ground in most outdoor adventure regions.", 2540, 13586)
	AddQuestStepObtainItem(Quest, 6, "Harvest jumjum from a shrub or garden.", 3, 100, "I must harvest some crafting supplies in a nearby low-risk adventure area. Harvest nodes can generally be found on the ground in most outdoor adventure regions.", 816, 8486)
	AddQuestStepObtainItem(Quest, 7, "Trap some rawhide pelts from an animal den.", 3, 100, "I must harvest some crafting supplies in a nearby low-risk adventure area. Harvest nodes can generally be found on the ground in most outdoor adventure regions.", 125 , 11271)
    AddQuestStepCompleteAction(Quest, 1, "Lumber")
	AddQuestStepCompleteAction(Quest, 2, "Root")
	AddQuestStepCompleteAction(Quest, 3, "TinCluster")
	AddQuestStepCompleteAction(Quest, 4, "LeadCluster")
	AddQuestStepCompleteAction(Quest, 5, "Sunfish")
	AddQuestStepCompleteAction(Quest, 6, "Jumjum")
	AddQuestStepCompleteAction(Quest, 7, "RawhidePelt")
end

For each complete action, use whatever complete action you would use for that step normally, and add a line to run a function for a progress check. Here's an example complete function from this script:

Code: Select all

function Lumber(Quest, QuestGiver, Player)
    UpdateQuestStepDescription(Quest, 1, "I have harvested some elm lumber.")
    CheckProgress(Quest, QuestGiver, Player)
end

And here's the progress check referenced:

Code: Select all

function CheckProgress(Quest, QuestGiver, Player)
    if QuestStepIsComplete(Player, HarvestTutorial, 1) and QuestStepIsComplete(Player, HarvestTutorial, 2) and QuestStepIsComplete(Player, HarvestTutorial, 3) and QuestStepIsComplete(Player, HarvestTutorial, 4) and QuestStepIsComplete(Player, HarvestTutorial, 5) and QuestStepIsComplete(Player, HarvestTutorial, 6) and QuestStepIsComplete(Player, HarvestTutorial, 7) then
        UpdateQuestTaskGroupDescription(Quest, 1, "I harvested some crafting supplies.")
		AddQuestStepChat(Quest, 8, "I must return to the trainer with the harvested items.", 1, "I must return to the trainer who sent me out harvesting.", 0, 4700016)
		AddQuestStepCompleteAction(Quest, 8, "CompleteQuest")
	end
end
