It might be a parser error based on something unexpected/unhandled in the source. Can you please provide full source of the quest and I'll take a look.

Here you are: http://pastebin.com/MygvLyJr

Problem here is a leading space before the CRLF on line 61 (at the end of message 1030). The parser isn't trimming the start of lines when detecting end of message block. You can fix now by just removing leading space on line 61 (tested).

Unfortunately this isn't as easy one to fix in the parser, as the sequence of "<space><crlf>" is an expected part of a continuing message block. The use of this sequence is used when injecting an empty line part-way through a message block.

In this case, the absence of an empty line causes the message block to overflow as message 1030 is the last message block in the QRC section. What I'll do instead is add another end of stream check when reading message blocks, which should also catch this issue.

Edit: Fix for this is on git now using a simple bounds check to make sure a leading space can't overflow lines array when missing at empty line at end of final message block in QRC section.

Ah, well. I was happy to alter the quest file instead, but you beat me. Thanks Interkarma.

No worries. Still edit the quest file for now though, as this change might not land in Live Builds until the release after the next one. I was running new builds when I fixed this, so change wouldn't have made it.

I tried troubleshooting this one myself, but to no avail. Quest log says this, and Player log doesn't expound on it:
Here's the quest text. Any idea what's causing this error?

This was a fun one to track down. The problem is this line:
The static message tag is case-sensitive and should be "QuestorPostfailure" instead. I used this casing as that is what's output by TEMPLATE.

I've now added some alternate casings to table so that "QuestorPostFailure" will be accepted in future also, and added a more helpful error message. For now, you should be able to fix by just changing casing.

Yes, it's running now with that fix. Thanks Interkarma.

I'm trying to make a multiquest campaign for the Thieves Guild, and the first three steps are going just fine. It's a sequence of quests named JHTG0#X.txt, going 0, 1 and 2 and so on. For some reason I can't get JHTG03X to start, and no log provides information why.

Here's the relevant quest trigger:
This is my Thieves Guild quest list:
I've attached a save at the time the change should happen.

Does JHTG03X start if you click an NPC then use "startquest JHTG03X" from console directly?
