issue:

I cant understand why i am getting this error. it happens when I accept a quest and then go into my menu and select quests to see the details of that quest.

ideas?

--note: the paragraph formatter may sit above or bellow these scripts how ever the same errors occurs.

This script works fine if you have no quests though.

So heres what I did. I took out every script but the paragraph formatter and the quest journal and the RPG Tankentai Sideview Battle System. Now either it clashes so heavily with the RPG Tankentai Sideview Battle System or there is an internal issue in the quest journal script that is causing this issue....

Ideas?

Are you using Paragraph Formatter 2.0? Or are you using 1.1? This script requires 2.0.

AHHH shit...Should have checked that before bugging you. 1.1 - well with that said - your download link, all of them - wants me to download a .php file? 0o? No other download on this or any other site asks me to download a .php file. do you have the project on media fire or something like that I could grab it from?

Using codes like \c[22]Some text\c[0] do not work. For example:

objectives[0]= "Bla bla fiddy bla \\c[22]yo ho\\c[0] bla bla"

will produce:

 Bla bla fiddy bla \c[22]yo ho\c[0] bla bla

instead of the appropriate colo for yo ho

The php thing is weird - I find it is happening with Firefox and SMF. Hopefully it will be fixed soon. In the meantime, do you have another browser you could use to download things? If not, I can upload to sendspace.

With respect to the codes, you need to have the Special Codes Formatter, but also, if you are using "" for options, then you need to escape back slashes. Ie. It needs to be "\\c[22]Some text\\c[0]"

Wait wait wait....This is whats giving me the issue:

Code: [Select]
     
      name = "Tracking down the Bandits"
      banner = "" # If using, must be a file from the Pictures folder
      description = "The bandits that took over the South Trade Route are held up in the \\c[22]Ruins of Ickta\\c[0]. You have been asked to rid them of the place so the monks can have their place of worship back."
      objectives[0] = "Slaughter the Bandits in the \\c[22]Ruins of Ickta\\c[0]."
      rewards = [] # 2 Mana Ups and 500 Gold
      icon_index = 137


what are you saying I have to do?

Because this is what I am saying doesnt work.

For example this will spit out:

The bandits that took over the South Trade Route are held up in the \c[22]Ruins of Ickta\c[0]. You have been asked to rid them of the place so the monks can have their place of worship back.

for the description of the quest in the quest window when viewing this quest

Since this script uses the paragraph format script \\lb does not work to split up paragraphs - so is there another way of splitting up paragraphs?

Hello modern algebra. I want to thank you for this script. It has been very useful in the game I am trying to make.

I have two inquiries, though.

First, I am wondering if there is a way where I can complete a quest even if there are some failed objectives?
I am aware about the prime argument, but what I want to do is set up a conditional branch where it will check the number of failed objectives, and decide upon it if the quest will fail or be completed. (e.g.: fail more than two out of five objectives, the quest will fail, otherwise, the quest will be completed.)

Another one is that; is it possible to add an icon at the description?
In line 348, I wanted to write a description where it defines the meaning of each icon.

Code: [Select]
VOCAB_HELP_GENERAL = "[show the icon for active quest here]Active Quests, [show the icon for completed quest here]Completed Quests, [show the icon for failed quest here]Failed Quests"

Thanks ! ^-^

For the first, yes. All you would need to do is make sure there are no prime objectives. That way, the quest wouldn't automatically fail. Then you could easily enough check how many objectives have been failed through the traditional means. Ie, if you are looking or particular objectives to be failed, then you could use this code in a conditional branch [see line 160 of implementation]:

Code: [Select]
#        objective_failed? (quest_id, objective_id_1, ... objective_id_n)
#          This is satisfied if all the listed objectives have been failed



And no, there is currently no way built in to the Quest Journal to show icons in the Help Window. However, you could grab my Global Text Codes script (just find it in the RMVX Script Index), and if you use that, then all you would need to do is something like this:

Code: [Select]
VOCAB_HELP_GENERAL = "\\i[149]Active Quests : \\i[150]Completed Quests : \\i[179]Failed Quests"

ma, thanks for the Global Text Codes solution. It worked for me. ;D


I still have a problem with my first inquiry, however. How can I set up a quest with no prime objective? If I did not define the prime, it will require that all objectives must be completed in order to complete the quest. prime = [none] is not a valid value; and thus generated a crash.
But even if I can set up a quest without a prime objective, how can I complete or fail the quest? There is no script command that will enable me to complete or fail a quest directly. Like:
Code: [Select]
complete_quest (quest_id)
fail_quest (quest_id)

Just set it directly as:

Code: [Select]
prime = []

then there will be no prime objectives, though I suppose that would make it automatically complete. without doing anything.

I guess I would need to add a feature that allows for manual completion. Here: paste the following into its own slot below the Quest Journal:

Code: [Select]

# ** Game_Quest
#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#  Summary of Changes:
#    new public instance variable - manual_complete; manual_fail
#    aliased method - initialize; complete?; failed?

class Game_Quest
  #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  # * Public Instance Variables
  #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  attr_accessor :manual_complete
  attr_accessor :manual_fail
  #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  alias ma_mancomqj2_initz_5gf1 initialize
  def initialize(*args, &block)
    ma_mancomqj2_initz_5gf1(*args, &block) # Run Original Method
    @manual_complete = false
    @manual_fail = false
  end
  #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  # * Check if Complete
  #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  alias mlg_qj2mncomp_compl_6yo9 complete?
  def complete?(*args, &block)
    if @prime_objectives.empty?
      return @manual_complete
    else
      mlg_qj2mncomp_compl_6yo9(*args, &block) # Run Original Method
    end
  end
  #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  # * Check if Failed
  #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  alias mlg_qj2manclet_failed_4rm9 failed?
  def failed?(*args, &block)
    if @prime_objectives.empty?
      return @manual_fail
    else
      mlg_qj2manclet_failed_4rm9(*args, &block)
    end
  end
end

#==============================================================================
# ** Game_Interpreter
#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#  Summary of Changes:
#    new methods - manually_fail_quest; manually_complete_quest
#==============================================================================

class Game_Interpreter
  #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  # * Manually Complete Quest
  #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  def manually_complete_quest(quest_id)
    $game_party.quests[quest_id].manual_complete = true
    $game_party.quests[quest_id].manual_fail = false
  end
  #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  # * Manually Fail Quest
  #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  def manually_fail_quest(quest_id)
    $game_party.quests[quest_id].manual_complete = false
    $game_party.quests[quest_id].manual_fail = true
  end
end

Now, what you will need to do is directly set the prime to [], as above. To complete the quest, you use the code:

Code: [Select]
manually_complete_quest (quest_id)

To fail a quest, use the code:

Code: [Select]
manually_fail_quest (quest_id)

Where quest_id for both is, of course, an integer.

Mind you, the manual control only applies to quests where there are no prime objectives.

That is untested, so tell me if there are errors.

What do you mean by properly? No cut off at the bottom?

It is designed to scroll incrementally when the player is moving it, so I did not bother changing the size of the actual contents since there will always be some cut off at least. I suppose I could change it and make it so that if a character stops scrolling it at a point where there would be cut off, it forces it to scroll the rest of the distance.

Well, assuming that you are using 2.1, all you need to do is press enter and then the window should be scrollable.

If you are not able to do that, it is a bug, but not one that I know how to reproduce; if you could make a new project and reproduce the error for me and send it, then I will take a look.
