Oh right, i forgot about the delay being placed at the occasion. On another note i created a ticket cause i think you might enjoy answering stuff there.

keep up the good job :)

Also ragan, If I'm not wrong there was a flag before that forced the player to complete all objectives in order and then you replaced that with objectives prerequisite?

Well anyway, If i have a quest with, let's say 25 objectives. Do i really have to make every damn objective a prerequisite of the one before? I'd be simpler to keep the flag also, So that if you want all obj to be in order then it's very simple. But if you only want some to be in order you use the objective prerequisite ,command, :)

might also ad that when creating a message event there's no way to put a delay on the message, would this be easy to add or am i missing something?

@Coffeebuzz77

Yeah I've thought about both of these and I think I'll use both of your ideas as well as mine. I guess I'll just try and use all three of them as much as possible to not make thing repetitive.

Yeah and also, In a quest area I don't want the player to be able to destroy blocks, othewise they can just ruin stuff and take shortcuts. So it worldguard the best choice or what should i use?

Willoh95,

I just did a quest like this. I have an area ( a cursed mansion ) that the questing player must enter several times during the quest.. I have to teleport players in and have iron doors with pressure plates to get out.. they could let other players in but.. meh. Its good enough for me. The thing I always try to do is add the required mechanics into the story so its less cheesy..

For example.. the mansion quest chain is given by Grimwall, the grimwall family was researching some portal magic when the invading warlock clan came in and caused havok and a 200 year curse ect... Grimwall family cannot match the warlock power but they can manage to use what power they have left to get you inside the castle walls.. Hence you teleport into the quest area for each new part of the quest chain by walking through the Grimwalls magic gate.

That above is a cheesy general summary but the basic hint here is to incorporate portals into the story.

The only other idea I had was to model a large door out of Bedrock and have the quest remove the blocks and have a location objective just on the other side of the doorway that recreates the door.. so the door opens when you initiate the quest and closes when you enter past the door.

Yeah but for now I'll just go with lockette and groups. You can make only certain groups open doors but not certain permissions. But i guess it's good enough. And make the plugin mcMMO compatible first :P

though it already kinda is, you can run a cmd command such as ``addlevels smithing 5`` on questcomplete or something.

I'd like to ask all you quest makers out there this thing that annoys me. I'm thinking about making a server with quests and having many player play on it. Which means all quests has to be repeatable and i don't want others to open doors to areas which other aren't allowed to be in.

But what's the best way of doing this? The best solution i can think of is giving the player a permission node when starting a quest (permission node will be the same as quest name, e.x - quest.mine.0). Then I can make a certain door only open to the person with the permission node - quest.mine.0. But i haven't found any plugin which does this.

So any other options? I don't like the idea of teleporting or using the event block for this.

Ragan,

New version sounds cool.. reworking the syntax requirements scares me a little spent the last week on quests I dont want to break them all with an update.. Any chance you will supply a converter when the final update build is ready ?
