What is Data Quest missing?

[Tolakram]

Help me remember. I know there was one seemingly simple quest type that dataquest could not do. I want to get that added before I get involved in some new D2 mods.

I fear have no idea of what is the missing type, but i can at least bump your topic

[Argo]

dunno if i understand this topic right but besides things like guild, class and race, i would like to be able to use the search command with DQs and being able to use emotes. This would make quests like those possible:

showing respect:
http://camelot.allakhazam.com/quests.ht ... quest=3497

Wings of the Isle:
http://camelot.allakhazam.com/quests.ht ... quest=3498

Wings of the isle was done by me with DQ, but i had to change it a bit.

Ability to define areas in DQ would be nice too, eg. recognize if i enter a certain area or leave it

kind regards

Tola on live, when a quest is done, a blue knot is above the head of the questgiver, when you have to return to him to finish the quest. Is it possible to add this feature to DQ?

[Tolakram]

As far as I know that's only available on client versions we don't support.

I did a trial account to test reward quests on live ... text of the Story was much longer than we supported so I did a lot of testing, playing around with various limits, and added a hard coded limit for Story and FInishText to be 1000 characters. It will vutoff around 990, sometimes 995, but more text does not cause any issues.

I also added a hardcoded 255 limit to StepText. Going over this limit would not crash the client but it would corrupt the Reward Quest dialog.

I am finished with DataQuests for now unless someone comes up with an important feature we are missing.
