Classic quest bugs

Bug report #26: [RESOLVED]

Code: Select all

	have _I.00_ set _S.09_ 

Source:

https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Daggerfall:Hunt_for_Undead aka https://github.com/Interkarma/daggerfal ... B00Y14.txt

Description of problem:

There's an odd quirk here:

Code: Select all

_mondead_ task:
	killed 1 _monster1_ 
	killed 1 _monster2_ 
	killed 1 _monster3_ 
	say 1060 
	have _I.00_ set _S.09_ 

_S.07_ task:
	when _mondead_ and _S.09_ and not _S.10_ 
	take _I.00_ from pc 
	say 1061 

The game says, "So long as you have _I.00_ I will light up _S.09_." It then takes _I.00_ from the player as a result of killing the monster. But because _S.09_ deactivates, _S.07_ deactivates too. This then makes victory impossible:

Code: Select all

_success_ task:
	when _clickqgiver_ and _S.07_ 
	give pc nothing 
	unset _clickqgiver_ 
	end quest 

It appears "have ITEM set TASK" is intended to be permanent in classic Daggerfall. Writing a workaround is easy and the quest can finish with it, but I wanted to first suggest this engine fix.

Bug report #27:

Code: Select all

Item _reward1_ item class 4 subclass 26

Source:

https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Daggerfall:Lor ... t_Part_III aka https://github.com/Interkarma/daggerfal ... 000501.txt

Description of problem:

Item index points at a subclass that can't exist.

Item class 4 is "Magic item," and it has one subclass: "Magic item." A subclass 26 is impossible, but it's what the quest requires.

Code: Select all

    public enum MagicItemSubTypes                   // Not mapped to a specific item template index
    {
        MagicItem,
    }

I haven't tested this in classic since it's a Lord K'avar sequel quest... and those are a migraine to do.

Bug report #28:

Code: Select all

Place _target_ local house1 anyInfo 1011 rumors 1011

Source:

https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Daggerfall:Antique_Ivory aka https://github.com/Interkarma/daggerfal ... B00Y11.txt

Description of problem:

House cannot be located in any major city.

I tested it in Daggerfall, Sentinel, Wayrest, Wrothgaria, and Urvaius cities. Perhaps it could be found in some more obscure towns but it's already excluded from very important locations.
