Hello, Modern Algebra.

While I was testing my game, I discovered that when you set the objective to about more than 5 objectives, the game will crash.
It has something to do with the game interpreter, somewhere in line 1411.

The image is in the attachment.

I can set more than 5 objectives without there being any error.

The error you are receiving sounds like an error in whatever code you are using in the Script event command. Please post a screenshot of whatever you have in that command and I will take a look.

EDIT: It seems to work, now! Solved! :D

Awesome script Modern.
It works perfectly, but from a moment to another it gives me this error.

It's strange because i don't modify nothing and i don't use any type of picture (icons are correct ;) ).
My script is also under my Galv menù themes engine, but i repeat that until one hour ago it works perfectly and now i didn't change nothing! XD
For you where is the problem? Thanks :D

I have two queries.

Up until now in my game I have had 2 totally separate parties, using Tsukihime's Party Manager script (found here http://himeworks.com/redirect.php?type=script&name=Party_Manager).  They have had their own inventories and gold, and - without me having to do anything - their own separate list of quests.  This was fine because all side quests could only be discovered and completed by a specific party, they were not shared in any way.

I have just merged the two parties, and their inventories and gold have combined without a hitch.  However, the quests of the second party which has been merged into the first party, did not add themselves to the quest list.  In one sense this is not the end of the world, because if they haven't completed them I can put blocks on so that they can't go back and finish them as a joint team.  However, it would be nice if they did show up.  Is this at all possible?

For your convenience I am posting the short script which does the merging because it is not part of Tsukihime's original script.
Spoiler for:
Code: [Select]
#written by Tsukihime 29/12/2014 with gold fix by Source.
#script call to merge Party 2 with Party 1
#merge_parties(1, 2)

class Game_Parties
 
  # Merges party2 into party1
  def merge(id1, id2)
    party1 = @data[id1]
    party2 = @data[id2]
   
    # merge actors
    party2.members.each do |mem|
      party1.add_actor(mem.id)
    end
   
    # merge inventories
    party2.items.each {|item| party1.gain_item(item, party2.item_number(item)) }
    party2.weapons.each {|item| party1.gain_item(item, party2.item_number(item)) }
    party2.armors.each {|item| party1.gain_item(item, party2.item_number(item)) }
   
    party1.gain_gold(party2.gold)


    # Make first party the active party
    switch_party(id1)
   
    # Delete the second party, as it has been merged
    delete_party(id2)
  end
end

class Game_Interpreter
  def merge_parties(id1, id2)
    $game_parties.merge(id1, id2)
  end
end

My second query is more easily shown in a screen shot


As you can see, the last objective is overlaid by the line which separates the objectives section from the rewards section.  I also cannot scroll down to see the rewards.  It's as if I've used up all the available space for this.  Is it possible to extend the length of this down to allow for more objectives (there will be 3 more) and still be able to see the rewards?

Oh, and btw, I have no idea what that line of question marks at the top of the list of quests is all about.

Thank you.

Hi modern algebra!
I really like your script, but i have few requests.
Can you make possible to change quest location and client via script calls?
I am making one huge quest with different quest givers and locations. When one part of quest is completed i will set objective as completed and then i will reveal next objective for next part. For the most of time, quest givers and their locations are different, so i would like to change it via script calls. Can you please consider adding this feature in your script soon?

Hi Necrofenser. That is already possible. Just use the following code in a script call:

Code: [Select]
quest(14).client = "New client"
quest(14).location = "New location"

Replace 14 with the ID of the quest you are changing, and of course replace "New client" and "New location" with the names of the new client and location.

One more question.
I can't seem to find this on first page of this script, so i have to ask you here.
What kind of licence this script have? Free for private use only or it's also free for commercial use too?

hello modern algebra.

i hope, you can help me for my problem^^''

I use the script for quest and also for achievements.
At this point, some informations are only visible, when you get it.
So i change it with the commands [quest().name = ""] and [quest().location = ""]. The last, i will change is the objective. But how is the command for this, because it can have more than one. I testet this:

quest().objective = ""
quest().objective1 = ""
quest().objective_1 = ""
quest().objective_id_1 = ""

I hope you can help me^^

Hi SoraMMK. Sorry for the delay. You can change the contents of an objective with the code:

Code: [Select]
quest(x).objectives[y] = ""

Where x is the quest ID and y is the objective ID (starts at 0). However, if all you are looking to do is reveal information sequentially, you could just set it all up in the script itself and use the reveal_objective and conceal_objective codes.



I also received a request from Ziemanin1 to make it so that some quests did not show up in the all, active, complete, or failed categories, and instead only showed up in whatever custom categories they were assigned.

I wrote the following patch for anyone with a similar desire:

Code: [Select]
#==============================================================================
#    Remove Quest from Default Categories [Patch for Quest Journal v. 1.0.3]
#    Version: 1.0.0
#    Author: modern algebra (rmrk.net)
#    Date: October 24, 2015
#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#  Description:
#
#    This patch allows you to specify that some quests should ONLY show up in
#   the custom categories to which they belong, and not in the default :all,
#   :active, :complete, and :failed categories.
#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#  Instructions:
#
#    Paste this script into the Script Editor below the Quest Journal but above
#  Main.
#
#    To specify that a quest should only show up in custom categories, include
#  :only in its custom categories array. For example, if you have a custom
#  :towns category and you only want the quest to show up in that and not in
#  the :active and :all categories, then you would put the following when
#  setting the quest up:
#
#      q[:custom_categories] = [:only, :towns]
#
#  You can set more than one custom category as well. Please note that if you
#  do not set at least one custom category though, then putting :only in a
#  quest's custom categories array will make it invisible and inaccessible.
#==============================================================================

#==============================================================================
# ** Game_Quests
#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
#  Summary of Changes:
#    overwritten method - include?
#==============================================================================

class Game_Quests
  #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Double post cause bragging.

I was on another forum talking with a guy about his Quest plugin for MV.

When I asked if they planned on allowing for a certain feature they replied:
"This isn't going to do everything for you!"

Then I realized how awesome this script is.

Thanks for such a contribution MA!

Thanks bluntsword. To be fair though, this script doesn't do all that much in the grand scheme of things. It just lets you display stuff. All the hard work of setting up the quests and progressing them through the game is done by you guys.

Still, this guy only allowed for quests to be modified by variables. Very bare bones in comparison to yours.

Edit - and +1 for using notes in the event instead of call scripts.

Sorry to bump such an old thread, but I've just recently discovered this script and love it, however I am wanting to use a custom menu script with my game as well, and I was wondering how I would add this Quest Journal to the custom menu script. Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask about it (also asking the maker of the menu script as well, wasn't sure which one to ask so figured I'd do both and cover everyone lol).

The script in question is:

Put this under Menu_List:
Code: [Select]
:quest     => ["Quests", "View all current quests.", nil, true, false, 4],

The '4' is the same number as MENU_INDEX and your common event, which should be just a script call:

Code: [Select]
SceneManager.call(Scene_Quest)

With trigger set as none.

Sorry for double bumping an old thread :P

Hi modern algebra
I am trying to figure out if there is a way to use the mouse wheel to scroll down the quest info that exceeds the height of the screen, or make a scroll bar appear at the right part of the screen. I can use the arrows on my keyboard but it is not convenient for me since everything on my game will be mouse-able XD.
Thank you for the good work!

I love your script. It is super easy for me to use (and I'm a beginner), but I am stuck on how to make it so if you have a running total, it will come up in your quest journal.

By the way, I'm using RPG Maker VX Ace.

Thanks.

This script is fantastic and I love it.  No problems with it at all, but I am wondering about a possible feature.  Is there any way to hide some of the categories (or even all of them, displaying only the "All" quests) until those categories become relevant?  I have custom categories relating to different areas, and I'd like them not to show up in the log until the character has actually visited those areas.  Even if this is not possible, thanks already for making such an amazing, useful, versatile script!
