@fullwall @Citizens

I've been trying a rather large number of different ways of writing this location quest. But from comparing information on the wiki to your previous post about the location node I feel the quest pasted below is the closest I have got to getting this right.

http://pastebin.com/Ra3yVhrf

Would really appreciate any help on getting move to location quests properly formatted.

Thanks!!

UPDATE: This doesn't give me back a huge error, it just tells me the type is invalid -> http://pastebin.com/TbSm0RkG

 

@pudd1nG - http://pastebin.com/5xjdK9y1 - you were close .

 

You are the greatest thing since sliced bread mate, thanks!

And mind you I do understand it the thing is quest.yml is empty can someone give me a draft like an Example to serve as my guide please. Thank you so much my kids are eaching for questing now.... T_T hope you reply asap...

Basics

Quests are defined in the quests.yml file located in plugins/Citizens. Each root node in that file is a quest name - below, the two example quest names in quest.yml are 'example' and 'example2'. This is what you will use ingame to identify each quest. Inside this, there are text nodes - pretty self-explanatory. Note that you can use
to denote a line break.
The repeats option allows you to set a limit for the number of times you can repeat the quest. -1 denotes an unlimited repeat count. Set it to 1 for once-off quests.

Yet my quests.yml is empty .........

 

I've been encountering some issues... I create a trader NPC, and any mods or admins on the server can access its inventory to buy/sell things to it, but regular players can't.

I am using 1.1 Citizens, CB 1135 (or whatever the latest is that works with 1.8), and the Essentials package with GroupManager for perms.

Change the npc traders owner to "Server"

 

Changed the owner, now when anyone right clicks them we get:

Now for another problem. My guards are flagged as bouncer, with skeletons, zombies, and spiders flagged as -m. Yet it's very rare that any of the guards will actually attack.

Second issue with guards: When equipped with a bow, they will not fire arrows. I toggled trader on long enough to give all of them 1000 arrows, and now maybe 1/1000th of their attacks is firing an arrow. The rest they just swing at them with the bow. Can guards not used bows yet? Cause that would make my archers not as cool as I'd love them to be.

Also: Great job you guys with this plugin. Even with the issues I've had with it I've had nothing but fun programming NPCs. I especially love the pathing ability. Patrolling guards are awesome.

 

Hello, I get errors with version dev 207

http://pastebin.com/vmW4PkvQ

 

@fullwall - I asked yesterday about four issues that are frustrating me. I've got most of everything to work, BUT

1) I cannot scroll through messages with left click.
2) My patrolling guards (following waypoints) wont stop and kill monsters, they just keep walking.
2) How do you enter the location for a "move location" quest? I've tried a couple different ways. (example below)
3) Why won't it update when I kill monsters on a "hunt" quest? It always stays at zero. (example below)

For an example of a move location quest check -> http://pastebin.com/5xjdK9y1

(hopefully now when people search this thread this post should pop out)

 

@mspau86
1) Scroll through messages with right click.
2) Will be fixing shortly.
3) see @pudd1nG 's post below.
4) Will look into it.

 

Btw, just a few quest tips and tricks. <br> indicates a newline for descriptions. <code> indicates a colour code. <[colour name]> indicates a name, generally they are the same as the Bukkit naming except with light/dark abbreviated to d/l (dgrey, etc.)

 

Is anyone else getting a loop of:

05:09:43 [INFO] [Citizens] An error has occurred, please wait while it is sent t
o the developers...
05:09:46 [INFO] [Citizens] Below is the stacktrace that has been transmitted to

on a /reload that never ends until the server completely times out or is forced to be shutdown? It's not always, but it's often enough that it's causing problems. Perhaps I need to turn on debug mode?

Also, what prevents the loading of other NPC types even when I have them all in the types folder. All that is present is Trader. Might that also explain the lack of their config file items?

 

@pudd1nG - Thanks for the example "hunt" file. I appreciate it.
@fullwall - Sorry, I meant "I can't scroll through quests," not messages. Mistype above.
- Additionally, thanks for all the hard work you and aPunch do. The community loves this plugin.

@Cryptite - I was getting those messages when I had bad code in my quests or npc files. I had to go find it and fix it. It was usually that an "argument" wasn't formatted correctly, or a node was messed up. I'm not getting them anymore

 

Er... 2 problems.

First: If I give a quester more than 1 quest, it reads the description from the first one for ALL of them.
Second: Rewards aren't working

 

@fullwall @aPunch

Woah, just hit a roadblock. No citizens are loading now. I restarted my server and got this error:

[SEVERE] Error occurred while enabling Citizens v1.1 (Is it up to date?): null.

It really happened out of nowhere. I downloaded the latest build of Citizens #208 and it's still happening.

 

Rewards are working for me.

I don't understand how objective's steps are working :/ (my server is offline atm, I can't test anything). Could someone explain me ?

 

@Cryptite - yeah, it's a problem with the plugin.yml that we're still sorting out :/
@mspau86 - could you pastebin?

 

Hi, i get this error

http://pastebin.com/mxzLjBdj

CB1185, Citizens - last devbuild
Permissionsplugin - bPermissions

 

@aPunch @fullwall
I pasted the error below. I've had the RB 1185 CraftBukkit Build for a while. Citizens 1.1 worked up until just an hour ago.

It is caused by not having the current recommended build of CraftBukkit. Citizens 1.1 requires CB 1185 or the plugin.yml will break.

 

/toggle healer

/toggle trader

/toggle blacksmith

etc..

 

I Really love this plugin! (I saw videos) But, (i have 1.1) when i type /npc it says i dont have the permissions. (i dont have a permissions plugin.)

 

@mspau86 - try updating all the type jars with the latest build if you haven't already. Otherwise, that's a really really strange error.

 

Yea.. Developers anwserd to each question, but not mine.. Can you fix this, otherwise i cannot make my trader sell thing ?And whats the purpose of the trader if he cannot sell items.

 

My permissions for default players:

- citizens.use.trader
- citizens.trader.use.*
- citizens.basic.use.help
- citizens.basic.use.info
- citizens.trader.use.trade

Op and permission '*' can open trader, but default can't.
I use PermissionsEx 1.14 and bPermissions 1.2.5 for testing.

 

how add grant to quest (in reward) ? Example please Can i give player item and grant to quest?

 

When i toggle guard the npc will not follow me , is this just me or ?

 

Hello
I love your plugin but I'm wondering how to create multiple steps quests. I haven't understand everything on the wiki. Could you give a little example of a multiple steps quest please ?
Regards.
