Problem with my quest.

The first task works. However once its complete and you hail him, he doesnt start the second conversation. Also completed tasks is coming up as -1 in the database even though record completed tasks is set to true

Code:

#Saylinks#

#Task 500 Explore the Orc Camp
my $awake = quest::saylink("Awake....What happened to me?", 0, "Awake");
my $activity = quest::saylink("Orc Activity?", 0, "Activity");
my $rituals = quest::saylink("Rituals?", 0, "Rituals?");
my $investigate = quest::saylink("As you wish", 0, "Investigate");

#Task 501 Speak to Elrond of Rivendell
my $troubling = quest::saylink("Troubling?", 0, "Troubling?");
my $elrond = quest::saylink("Lord Elrond?", 0, "Lord Elrond?");
my $inform = quest::saylink("I will inform Lord Elrond", 0, "Inform");

sub EVENT_SAY {
	
	if(!quest::istaskcompleted(500)) {
	
		#Player Hasnt Recieve Task 500 Yet
		if($text=~/Hail/i) {
		quest::say("Welcome , $name. Im glad to see you [$awake].");
		}
	
		if($text=~/Awake....What happened to me?/i) {
		quest::say("You were ambushed by orcs. I dont know why you would wander alone in the wild with all of the recent orc [$activity] going on.");
		}
	
		if($text=~/Orc Activity?/i) {
		quest::say("Yes, for some reason the orcs have been moving further in to the realm of Eriador. However, Our scouts have obtained information that leads us to believe the orcs performing strange [$rituals] in woods just outside of our camp.");
		}
	
		if($text=~/Rituals?/i) {
		quest::say("We dont know what they are up to but if your feeling better you could go [$investigate] for us.");
		}
		
			#Give Player Task 500 Explore The Orc Camp
		if($text=~/As you wish/i) {
			quest::say("Yes each trial is designed to test your abilities to their maximum.  As you improve, I will have more trials available to you.  After successfully completing a trial, I will give you a note that you may pass along to your Guildmaster for your reward.");
			@tasklist =(500);
			$tasksoffered = "";
			foreach $task(@tasklist) {
				if(!quest::istaskactive($task)) {
					if($tasksoffered eq "") {
						$tasksoffered = $tasksoffered . $task;
					}
					else {
						$tasksoffered = $tasksoffered . "," . $task;
					}
				}
			}	
		}
		
		if($tasksoffered ne "") {
			quest::taskselector(eval($tasksoffered));
		}
	 
		
		
		#Task 500 Explore Orc Camp In Jaggedpine
		if(istaskactive(500)) {
			if($text=~/Hail/i) {
				quest::say("Well $name, did you find anything out yet?");
			}
		}
	}
	#Task 500 Is Completed Conversation For The Next Task
	if(istaskcompleted(500)) {
		
		if($text=~/Hail/i) {
			quest::say("This is most [$troubling]. Never have I heard of Orcs possessing this type of foul magic!");
		}
	
		if($text=~/Troubling?/i) {
			quest::say("Yes, you will need to inform [$elrond] of this immediately!");
		}
		
		if($text=~/Lord Elrond?/i) {
		quest::say("Lord Elrond is one of the few remaining High Elf lords left in Middle Earth! He dwells in Rivendell.");
		quest::say("Now make haste and [$inform] Lord Elrond!");
		}
		
		#Give Player Task 501 Speak To Lord Elrond
		if($text=~/I will inform Lord Elrond/i) {
			quest::say("Good Luck!");
			@tasklist =(501);
			$tasksoffered = "";
			foreach $task(@tasklist) {
				if(!quest::istaskactive($task)) {
					if($tasksoffered eq "") {
					$tasksoffered = $tasksoffered . $task;
					}
					else {
					$tasksoffered = $tasksoffered . "," . $task;
					}
				}
			}
		}	
		if($tasksoffered ne "") {
			quest::taskselector(eval($tasksoffered));
		}
	  
	}
	
	
 
}
 #if task is accepted and you need to give the player somthing or do somthing for the task do it here
sub EVENT_TASKACCEPTED {
	quest::say("You accepted task $task_id");
}

Code:

    if(istaskcompleted(500)) {

should be:

Code:

    if(quest::istaskcompleted(500)) {

thank you lol

Also, it is generally a good idea to put quest::saylink() inside the sub EVENT, instead of outside of it like you have them. If it works as you have it though, probably no need to change it.

yeah it works. I just wanted to keep my script organized as best i could. I could probably seperate it in to functions huh? and have the function called. I may try that, im sure that would be needed for larger scripts

question, This isnt working. I cant find any good item turn in quest examples.

The NPC does nothing when he is handed the item.

Code:

sub EVENT_ITEM {

	if (plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, 1391 => 1)) {
	quest::say("It seems the orcs are trying to summon an Ancient Demon. Please go and stop them before its to late!!");
	}

	else {
 	    plugin::return_items(\%itemcount);
    	quest::say("I have no use for this item, $name.  Take it back.");
	}  
}

figured it out, it was in the wrong folder by default

**Derision** · #8 08-08-2010, 05:18 PM

The plugins probably need to be copied from your eqemu\quests\plugins folder to the eqemu\plugins folder.

i.e. the folder that has your world.exe, zone.exe etc, in it should have a subfolder called 'plugins' with these in it:

Code:

entwisd@rama ~/eqemu $ dir plugins
check_handin.pl   commands.pl         default.pl  guildmasters.pl  plugin.pl       worldui.pl
check_hasitem.pl  default-actions.pl  globals.pl  npc_tools.pl     soulbinders.pl  zone_tools.pl

EDIT: The PEQ quest repo (including the plugins) is here: http://code.google.com/p/projecteqqu...ource/checkout
