How to create quests

[IronForge]

Hi, I'm wondering how to create quests?
Because I can't create a complete quest trigger, all that it allows me to do is mark 'last created as complete' but that won't help when I have over a dozen quests in my map. Only other option is 'harshtable' goodness knows what that is.

Also, how to create a 'when ITEM enters region' event?
All I know how to do is

EVENT
Unit enter regeon

Condition
OR
-item class of (item being carried by triggering unit in slot 1) = X
-item class of (item being carried by triggering unit in slot 2) = X
-item class of (item being carried by triggering unit in slot 3) = X
-item class of (item being carried by triggering unit in slot 4) = X
-item class of (item being carried by triggering unit in slot 5) = X
-item class of (item being carried by triggering unit in slot 6) = X

ACTION
Complete last created quest

Is it possible to have an 'item class of item being carried by triggering unit in ANY SLOT = X
Or better yet, item enter region = x as an event

Also, please explain how messed up this trigger will be when I add 10 or more quests, at the moment its the only one so 'last created' will do.

Thanks

Create a quest variable array, and save the quests into it.

Save first quest to

• Quests_Array[0] = Last created quest

second to

• Quests_Array[1] = Last created quest

And so on. Then you can complete Quests_Array[0], Quests_Array[1]...

Is it possible to have an 'item class of item being carried by triggering unit in ANY SLOT = X

Boolean - Hero has item of type

Thank you but can you explain the quest part in a little more detail please (like step by step) because I'm sayin someone may complete a quest earlier in the list after completing one later down.

Ok, let's say you have four quests.

1) Kill neighbour's dog
2) Steal candy from children at the marketplace
3) Drink ten (12) beer.
4) Change your underwear

No matter the order in which the player discovers (or you create) the quests, always set

• Quests_Array[0] = Last created quest

when you create the first quest,

• Quests_Array[1] = Last created quest

when you create the second quest and so on.

When you want to complete the quests, just make

• Quest - Mark Quest_Array[x] as Completed

where x is the index of the quest you want to complete.
