# Notes
|
|
|
|
The problem I'm facing right now is I really need to figure out how Quest
|
|
Objectives will work.
|
|
|
|
Primarily there are a few different objective types;
|
|
- "Code" controlled
|
|
Covers anything that can be triggered by the code itself, usually using the
|
|
event system. Here are a few examples;
|
|
- "Go talk to this person"
|
|
- "Go fight this boss"
|
|
- "Activate this switch"
|
|
- "Check" controlled
|
|
Basically these are objectives that can be completed and potentially
|
|
uncompleted again if the circumstances deem it so.
|
|
|
|
Consider;
|
|
"Go find 3 potions", could happen automatically, but if the player were to
|
|
then consume any one of those three potions, then the objective would
|
|
un-complete.
|
|
|
|
I think in this scenario the actual turn-in is either going to be an active
|
|
checker that turns the quest in automatically, e.g. consider the "find 3
|
|
potions" scenario I put above;
|
|
You would get the quest, go find 3 potions, and the instant the third
|
|
potion was collected, the game would trigger a cutscene and the quest would
|
|
be complete as part of that.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively the player could have to collect 3 potions and then turn in
|
|
with an NPC, who would check when interacted whether those items were in
|
|
the players' inventory or not. This is particularly so for key-items which
|
|
in theory cannot be uncollected, but would still require this "collect and
|
|
then turn in" approach.
|
|
|
|
Thinking about it further I think these check controlled objectives really
|
|
are the same as code controlled, I would just need some other kind of code
|
|
to be doing the actual checking.
|
|
|
|
Next Steps;
|
|
- Create looping event type(s)
|
|
Loop Event
|
|
Allow go to Event can go back to parent and re-start it
|
|
Restart Event
|
|
- Create an ever-present event type
|
|
This is an event type that will process "constantly" (realistically I think
|
|
this is an event type called "AutoStartEvent", with options to loop)
|
|
- Create more conditions for checking if player(s) have items, take items, and
|
|
more.

COOKING
|
|
Next I need to create some events to send you to a cooking mini-game. Cooking
|
|
mini games will just be a different kind of game scene that can't be exited.
