[Abelius]:
Thank you, guys, for your get well messages and understanding. ?
Good news is that I woke up today with only a headache, and knowing my common ailments as good as I know them, I went to spray some salted water up my nostrils. Congestion headaches are my personal nemesis from a long time ago...
So, with no fever and an almost unnoticeable running nose, I went and continued my quest to make quests with my quest system of choice. ?
However, I only got to make one. My old approach of storing quest states with Boolean variables turned out to be horribly unmanageable. So, I needed to read and learn about the proper way of using quest entries instead. And I must admit I didnt understand the thing at first
Anyway, this is another piece of knowledge I wont need to learn again in the future. Id just want these unexpected delays to happen less and less in the future. ?
And tomorrow more quests!

[Abelius]: I was replying to you, but I think I'll write a post instead because I'm not really sure if I've properly explained this release. 😉

2017-09-01 21:57:35 +0000 UTCWhat will v0.1 have different from the demos?
2017-09-01 19:00:18 +0000 UTC[Abelius]: Oh, it's not that different, to be honest. Quest sub-tasks are also flags, internally. But now they're neatly packed inside their master quests, so I don't need to see a loooong list of them every time I open the Variables window. 😙

2017-09-01 09:44:19 +0000 UTC[Abelius]: Hopeful I fear, and now utterly disappointed I'd bet. 😋 For v0.1 it's not possible. And I don't know about v0.2, to be honest. There are features I'd like to do ASAP. Things like lizards actually walking, for instance, that would be nice. Because right now all NPCs are like a MMORPG quest givers. Moving around is not their forte. 😅 But, you guys are the ones that pay our bills, so when v0.1 launches I'll prepare a list of tasks and let you decide on the order to tackle them with a poll, alright?

2017-09-01 09:38:46 +0000 UTCHehe yeah I could see how managing hundreds upon hundreds of Boolean flags would get to be an utter nightmare~ Just out of curiosity, how does the new system work without the use of setting flags? =)
2017-09-01 06:52:30 +0000 UTCso.... will release 0.1 have my slave path added or am i just getting hopeful?
