List of Daggerfall's macros usable in quests

Post by Cliffworms »

Greetings!

I have tested and compiled all the macros from MacroHelper.cs that are readable and can be used in quest creation.
I have added examples of applications of such strings to illustrate when or where they can be used. I will try to keep it updated as new macros are added in future releases.

Here is the link to the spreadsheet

This can be considered an update to JayH's excellent compilation of macros that he posted 2017.


If you have comments and suggestions, please let me know.
I have compiled this to make things easier for me when it comes to writing quests and I have the intention of compiling other such updated lists on other quest-related topics.

Cheers!

Cliff :D

The table has been updated with the new macros developped by Kab and introduced in 0.11.4.

Code: Select all

            { "%day", DayNum }, // Current day of the month (ex: 1, 2, ..., 30)
            { "%dayn", DayName }, // Name of the current day (ex: Morndas)
            { "%days", DayWithSuffix }, // Current day of the month with suffix (ex: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, ...)
            { "%mon", MonthNum }, // Current month
            { "%monn", MonthName }, // Name of the current month (ex: Hearthfire)
            { "%year", YearNum }, // Current year
            { "%min", TimeMin }, // Current minute
            { "%hour", TimeHour }, // Current hour
            { "%sign", CurrentSign }, // Current sign (ex: The Lady, The Tower, ...). Not TES2 lore, but it's a staple at this point
            { "%sea", CurrentSeason }, // Current season
            { "%cbd", CurrentBuilding }, // Name of the current building, if any
