Job System!

[RCS12]

Hello folks, I need help to my job system for my loap. My head aches and I dunno what to do... Can anyone help me? I know how to make a player gets the job but I don't know what variable that checks if the job was already taken. Please can somebody help me?

Set Job_Quest_Boolean[PlayerNumber] == true --> that means player has finished this job.

No.. The job can be repeated... The only problem is what variable is used to check if the job was already claimed by other players.

I do not understand. You can use a single boolean if you want to check if this quest has been done by anone yet.

You can use a boolean[array] to check if a specific player has already done the quest.

use a integer.
if integer is 1 you are able to start the quest
if integer is 2 you have taken the quest
if integer is 3 you can turn in the quest

^Why not just always allow doing the quest? And check if it's already done with boolean?

Using integers instead of boolean is less efficient and I don't see sense here.

with your variable you only check if the quest is not taken or taken. It does not show if you got the quest and it's complete. Which is obiously needed to know when you turn the quest in.

Ummm.. I will make things clearer... Actually I'm making a Life of a Peasant map... I already know the quest trigger, but my problem is I want job system like Deathoc's Life of a Peasant. There should be a join job if you don't have a job and quit the job if you want to quit. And sorry for my bad english... Quest and Jobs have a differences... Does anyone know that?

@chaoy, the question was how to check if a job is done or not, and most simple is with a boolean

@RCS12 U have to trigger things, like cancellings "jobs" .. idk this other map, btw.

 

[Chaosy]

lol, I didnt know what he meant by "job", in my language job means doing something (like a quest). If he dont need to turn the "job" in it's indeed better with a boolean.

get task
do task
complete task

I thought that was the definition of doing a job

Jobs can be different. Quests are quests. They are closer to a mission than a job. A job is normally used for telling classes of units / their rank. Like if you have a peasant. Its next job can be a knight / soldier / whatever else.
