New task types, support for Folia, new bossbar / action system, and more

Hello everyone,

This update adds a bunch of new features including: new task types and improvements to existing ones, support for the experimental Folia, a new quest item type, bossbar / actionbar support, and several bug fixes.

Provisional support for the Folia project has been implemented. Folia is a fork of Paper which adds "regionized multithreading" to the server; Quests should now be able to make use of this new multithreading system.

A new BossBar and ActionBar system as been added, which will allow you to display task progress and progression through both these methods. This can improve player experience by not requiring them to open the quests menu to see how close they are to completing a task. This system uses a new set of placeholders called "progress placeholders", whose purpose is to represent the progress for each task. For now, these must be manually set per quest, but in the future there are plans to automatically provide template strings for each task type, removing the need for manual configuration.

There are 9 new task types: blockitemdropping, projectilelaunching, pyrofishingpro_fishing, ecomobs_killing, znpcsplus_interact, znpcsplus_deliver, servernpc_interact, servernpc_deliver, and pinataparty_hit. The configuration for these tasks can be found on the wiki. In addition to new tasks, there are some fixes and improvements to exiting ones, such as: async support for placeholderapi_evaluate task type, better support for smithing task type, farming and position task type reworks, better mode detection in walking task type, and more.

Finally, some other miscellaneous improvements to highlight are: a new ItemsAdder quest item, time-limit placeholder, addition of "cancelcommands" option in quests, support for namespaced sounds, an improvement error messages, support for '_' and '-' in quest and task IDs, PlaceholderAPI support for GUI titles and fixes, and per-menu GUI trimming options. For a full list of changes, please review the commit log below.

A special thanks to the following people on GitHub for their contributions, they have made up the bulk of this update and without them then these changes would not have happened: Krakenied, Elikill58, NahuLD, svaningelgem, and AfkF24.

Bug fixes and technical improvements, new task types, new wiki home

Hi everybody,

This update has a whole lot of bug fixes and technical improvements. To list a few, the Essentials task type breaking on certain versions has been fixed, the breeding task has been improved for server running 1.10+, the walking task now works properly for vehicles, and there have been various performance optimisations made.

Additionally, this update adds a few new task types: replenishing, playerpoints_earn (for the plugin PlayerPoints), and ecobosses_killing (for the plugin EcoBosses). There are also new options for several other task types: blockbreak can now query PlayerBlockTracker (an alternative to CoreProtect), shearing can now be used on entities other than sheep and can be restricted to specific colours, and most tasks which require an item has a new 'exact-match' option.

Finally, the Quests wiki has a new home at https://quests.leonardobishop.com, and documentation is now distributed with the source code. Previously undocumented task types (such as blockshearing and smithing) have now been properly documented, among other missing options.

A special thanks to @Krakenied on GitHub for the majority of these changes! And apologies for my own absence, as usual I am busy at university; however, I have quite a bit of time now over summer to set aside for Quests, so updates and support should be a bit more regular.

(P.S. For those asking, Quests is already compatible with Minecraft version 1.20.x)

Smithing task type, bug fixes

This update adds a new smithing task type and fixes a couple of bugs. ShopGUI+ has been updated to their new API so please make sure ShopGUI+ is up-to-date before downloading this. Also, CoreProtect checks have been moved off the main thread to stop locking, however this may result in longer times for block breaks to count towards quests. Also, a bug concerning allow-partial-completion for inventory tasks has been fixed.

New taming task type, more options for enchanting and mobkilling, and quests debugger

Hello everybody.

This update adds a new taming task type, and adds more options to the enchanting and mobkilling types. Additionally, this update adds support for quest items from the ExecutableItems plugin.

All task types which end in 'certain' have been merged into their non-certain counterparts. For example, 'blockbreakcertain' and 'blockbreak' are now one task type. This was done as it makes a bit more sense to just have one task type with an optional field. To ensure everybody's configuration does not suddenly break, both names can be used to refer to the same task type. This also comes with a refreshed wiki for each task type. Rather than having all types on one page, each task type now has its own page. You can find them all here: https://github.com/LMBishop/Quests/wiki/Task-types

Additionally, extended problem descriptions can now be viewed by hovering over them on modern Minecraft versions. This should help if you do not understand a specific problem. You can also now give players quest items from a command, please see the wiki on how to do this.

To help with creating tasks, the quests debugger has been added. This is to help you if you find that a specific quest is not working, but no problems have been raised; the debugger will go through exactly what a task type is doing and print it out for you. Finally, an issue where quests progress files failed to load on startup has been fixed.

As always, view the commit log for a full list of changes.

Enjoy!

New quest options, new task types, bug fixes

This update adds new smelting and smeltingcertain task types. It also adds new options to quests: cancellable, counts towards limit, and time-limit, the latter option meaning quests can now 'expire'. Placeholders have also been added which can get the amount of time remaining, and the time which the player started the quest.

A tool to migrate quests data between storage providers has been added, which is accessible via "/quests admin migratedata".

Finally, a bug concerning the inventory task type not working as expected has been fixed, and a few other bug fixes and improvements.

Enjoy!

Note: the plugin will only start tracking quest start times after this update, so existing players with started quests may find that their quests were started on or around the 1st January 1970, as no data exists for them (yet).

More configurable options, bug fixes, QoL improvements

This update brings several new configurable options and bug fixes.

The farming task now accepts more blocks and a new [URL='https://github.com/LMBishop/Quests/wiki/Task-configuration-layout#farming']mode option [/URL]has been added. Additionally, the inventory and citizens deliver tasks also now support [URL='https://github.com/LMBishop/Quests/wiki/Task-configuration-layout#inventory']partial deliveries[/URL].

Categories may now be hidden from the quests menu, and quests may now have quest-specific items for the [URL='https://github.com/LMBishop/Quests/wiki/Creating-a-quest#completed-display']locked, complete, cooldown or no permission states[/URL]. Custom GUI items may now also have [URL='https://github.com/LMBishop/Quests/wiki/Custom-GUI-items']commands[/URL] attached to them to be executed when the player clicks on it.

The reset and fullreset commands should now be fully functional. Bug fixes have been made for tasks inventory, blockplace, and walking, with an exploit fixed for crafting. Finally, several quality-of-life features such as a command to forcibly open the started menu and cancel all quests have been added, with several other bug fixes and improvements.

Please see the commit log below for the full list of changes.

New task type, global macros, UI click action configuration

Hi all,

This update adds a new task type for NuVotifier. It also adds global macros (more on that after), the option to change click actions for the menu in light of the 1.18 update disabling middle-click in survival, and a few bug fixes. I would recommend changing the click action for quest tracking if you run a 1.18 server, a suitable alternative being "DROP".

Global macros allow you to create your own values/placeholders in the main configuration and use them within quests files. This helps reduce repetition across your configuration. They are substituted before the file is parsed, so you should be able to use PAPI placeholders within them.

To see how to use global macros, check this wiki page: https://github.com/LMBishop/Quests/wiki/Global-configurations#global-macros

To see how to change the click actions for the menu, check this subsection of the basic configuration wiki page: https://github.com/LMBishop/Quests/wiki/Basic-options#GUI-actions

Few bugfixes, some task type improvements

Hello everybody, hope you're all doing well.

First and foremost, I am currently very busy with university. I'm not able to spend much time adding features to Quests, so I'm having to prioritise bugfixes over features. This also means I haven't been around to provide support or thoroughly test these changes. Please keep this in mind when opening issues.

This update brings a few changes. Citizen IDs can now be specified as opposed to names in citizen tasks. Specific modes of transport for the walking task can now also be required. Please see the the respective task types in the wiki for instructions. The behaviour of automatic quest tracking should also be improved to automatically track the first available quest upon player login, which should assist with servers who only have one active quest at a time. For the rest of the changes, please review the commit log below.

Enjoy!

(P.S. Quests is probably already fully compatible with 1.18, open an issue if this is not the case.)

Made display names no longer a requirement for defining items #249
Allowed item flag configuration for quest display items #256
Fixed quest cancelling for autostarted quests #260

New task types, new quest item types, bug fixes

Quests is still looking for user feedback (final call)! Please consider volunteering some of your time (no more than five minutes) to fill out a quick survey about your experiences using this plugin: https://leonardobishop.com/userfeedback/quests. (Please note: if you have already completed this survey, please do not submit it again, thank you!)

The above survey will be closed within a week of this update.

Added some new task types: consume, bucketfill, bucketempty #226, #237
1. Please see the wiki for usage instructions: https://github.com/LMBishop/Quests/wiki/Task-types
Added some new types of quest items: mmoitems and slimefun #221
1. These are native integrations with each respective plugin which should have the following benefits:
2. Allow for easy configuration of items from other plugins in inventory task etc. without adding unnessecary bloat to the plugin
3. Allow the third party plugin to compare the itemstack, rather than quests doing the comparison, hopefully making it more accurate since quests will only directly check the ItemMeta, which could be different depending on how specialised the third party plugin is
4. Prevent having to reconfigure the quests every time an item is changed in the third party plugin
5. See the wiki on how to define these items: https://github.com/LMBishop/Quests/wiki/Defining-items#manually-defining-items
Fixed bug where /q a moddata command would not recognise players #232

There are no configuration changes in this update.

1. Thank you for CoolLord22 on GitHub for this addition
2. You can allow different players different quest started limits via permissions
3. See the wiki for more info here
4. Note: this supercedes the previous quest-started-limit option, however quests will still read from this option if it is defined
Added ignore afk option playtime task type #234
1. Thank you for CoolLord22 on GitHub for this addition
2. This uses Essentials to detect if players are AFK
3. You can enable this option here
Fixed (most likely) placeholders not working within gui if enabled #230
1. Could never replicate the bug in the first place, but I probably found the cause and fixed it

See configuration changes here: https://github.com/LMBishop/Quests/compare/v3.7...v3.8#diff-c957ec11571360042942f142fec931c2334db434131c4dd3138cd4dcd8759203

Quests can now have quest start commands

2. categories.yml will be autogenerated only on a clean install

1. The plugin will now show "Quest 1 +X more" as the requirement, rather than saying "Quest 1, Quest 2, Quest 3, ..." to stop enormous lores
