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.

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

Okay, first try removing the uquest folder. (make sure to back it up)
If that doesn't work, can you give me the error message, and when it occurs?

looks to me like a citizens error but a guess

hope this helps

thanks

 

Do you have the latest version of Citizens and uQuest?

 

i have updated all plugins
uquest 1.5
Citizens 1.0.8g
bukkit 860
(removed all and downloaded fresh)
no errors just nothing happense
i am OP

Thanks alot again

 

Can you show me your config file?

 

specific:
bob:
thisNPConly: 'true'
quest: 1
Example:
onlythisnpc: true
quest: 0
random:
Example: 0

one thing I have noticed is that the NPC all seam to repair my stuff when right clicking them dono if that's stopping it

 

You removed "amount" from your config file.

From the first post:
Open up your quests file (plugins/uQuest/Quests.yml) and insert the last quest number into the NPC-Quester config.

So your config would look like this

Code:

amount: x
specific:
    bob:
        thisNPConly: 'true'
        quest: 1
random:
    Example: 0

The names in the config are also case sensitive, so you must type the exact name.

 

I have the same problem, but i have that Amount set on 52 (How many quest uquest have) but i get the same error.

 

Done and still the same starting to think its me

was working beter on the old bukkit version

Sorry should have checked that bit

 

Okay, sorry guys.
This is a problem with Citizens version
Now there's 2 things you can do:
1. Update to the WIP version (might contain bugs, but I've heard it's better): http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/me...-1-6-compatible-860.7173/page-148#post-371418
2. Downgrade to version 1.0.8f

 

I already use the WIP version,,.

 

yep still no joy i realy think this is due to the buckit upgrade i could get quest from the npc on bukkit 818 but not with 860

Thanks again

 

The weird thing is, is that I'm running my own server, where they do work.

I'll send both of you a link with my full server setup.

EDIT: Convorsation started

 

If it is a left-clicking issue it is due to a change in CraftBukkit. If PvP is set to false in server.properties, the damage event if not called and therefore any left-clicking is ignored.

 

That makes sense...
I have PvP enabled, and the event called is "onDamage".
I thank you alot.

I haven't found this change in the changelog of bukkit tho.
I found that an event doesn't fire twice now when 2 players hit each other, but not that it's removed...
Ah well, thank you for the heads up once again.

EDIT: But then again, I'm running bukkit 860 on my server, and my plugin still works.
So this is kind of weird...

 

I turned PVP on and i still had no joy but that was only after a /reload will try with a full restart l8er dono if it will make a difference

 

The EntityDamageEvent was changed in that commit to not check if(!world.isPvpMode), meaning that it won't get called when pvp is turned off. The reason it works for you is because Pvp is likely turned on. From my experiences, at least, this seems to be the issue.

 

Okay.
Thank you for your time

I'm working on getting another method out.

You have to right click a NPC with a specified item then to get the quest.

Update v1.2.1.
It should be compatible with Bukkit 860 now.
Instead of hitting the NPC, you will want to right click him.

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

 

Cool thanks will look out for the update thanks for the help today

 

I already updated the plugin (see previous post)

 

saw after posted and have updated and it works

wow thanks sooo much will do more test but so far so good

Thanks soo much



only thning is when u get quest he said derp derp

but thats soooo cool

 

Oh I didn't remove that? xD
That was a check I made to see if it fired the event xD

I'm currently writing a new feature, so it'll be removed then.

 

Just wanted to say this plug-in is fantastic and exactly what I was looking for. Once you add the feature to end quests with the NPC and such it will be amazing. Is there any way to simply add lines of dialogue that are triggered in order when the player clicks the NPC (so my quest world can have a story) I'm finding it difficult to fit the story elements into short quest dialogue. Or is this something i should be reading the Citizens wiki for?

Thanks again, keep up the awesome work sir.

 

there is a way in citizens to make the NPC say stuff as you walk past, also the way the NPCs derp when hitting them i am sure that is possible but probably a different plugin at a guess

 

Thank you.
When the whole quest chain will come, I'll add the ability of giving them a lot of text.

 

Fantastic. I'll get back to working on my RPG side-world with my team of builders ready for when you update.
Again fantastic work

 

Thank you for the kind words! Keeps me working hard
I hope to have an update out in a few days with lots of new features!
One that's almost done is that you can configure if you need a specific item in your hand to interact with the NPC, and consuming it if you want to as well. This can be done with ANY npc, so it's not a global item and setting for every npc in the world.

In that update, I'll hopefully also have the quest chain ready, I think I already know how to do it, so it shouldn't be a huge problem.

EDIT: The item part I was talking about is now working on specific NPC's.

 

Thanks for the hard work much appreciated buy me and my server
look forward to update

 

I am also looking forward to it (sounds stupid I know), but I always feel happy when I get an update out and see the good comments

 

/help without an number throws an error
