LibQuestData  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 2.66
by: Sharlikran [More]
A bit of history

The mod name was changed because apparently the mod called Ravalox' Quest Tracker had a file named LibQuestInfo.lua included with it as an embedded library.

LibQuestData

While updating Quest Map and trying to use some of the same data with other mods that show quest information I realized it was too much work to update more then one mod. For that reason I created LibQuestData.

It contains all of the currently available (by user submission) data from Quest Map and some information from Destinations. The data is incomplete and I would appreciate user submissions.

Current Features:
- Provide mod authors with X,Y locations for placing a pin on the Map (LIBGPS Data not collected at this time use local_x , local_y only! Needs more time for data to be collected.)
- Built in data collection for quest information not currently in data base

At the bottom of the page is a list of Zones that have had their quest data verified.

Required

LibMapData - LibMapData
LibGPS - LibGPS
NOTE LibGPS Requires: LibMapPing, LibDebugLogger, LibChatMessage so be sure to read the authors description page.
LibMapPins - LibMapPins

Using LibQuestData with your addon: Include this line in your addon manifest:
Code:
## DependsOn:  LibQuestData
Reference to the library using:
Lua Code:
  1. local LQD = LibQuestData


Lua Code:
  1. lib:get_quest_giver(id, lang)
  2. -- returns: Quest Giver Name; type string

Important: This mod is brand new and I have not had time to update X, Y coordinates with user data for LibGPS. Use local_x, local_y.

As of 4/5/2021 you should no longer use lib.get_quest_list(zone)

Instead use lib.zone_quests
Code:
local LQD = LibQuestData
local zoneQuests = {}

local function UpdatePins()
 << verify you should be updating pins >>
    zoneQuests = LQD.zone_quests
    RefreshTourMapPins()
end
Use the function UpdatePins anywhere you need deepening on player interaction with the world such as events for when the map changes, or the player changes location.

Lua Code:
  1. lib:get_quest_list(zone)
  2. -- returns: all quest X, Y coordinates and Quest ID; table
  3.  
  4. lib.quest_map_pin_index = {
  5.     local_x     =    1, -- GetMapPlayerPosition() << -10 = Undefined >>
  6.     local_y     =    2, -- GetMapPlayerPosition() << -10 = Undefined >>
  7.     global_x    =    3, -- LocalToGlobal(GetMapPlayerPosition()) << -10 = Undefined >>
  8.     global_y    =    4, -- LocalToGlobal(GetMapPlayerPosition()) << -10 = Undefined >>
  9.     quest_id    =    5, -- Number index of quest name i.e. 6404 for "The Dragonguard"  << -1 = Undefined >>
  10.     -- world_x     =    6, Depreciated, WorldX 3D Location << -10 = Undefined >>
  11.     -- world_y     =    7, Depreciated, WorldY 3D Location << -10 = Undefined >>
  12.     -- world_z     =    8, Depreciated, WorldZ 3D Location << -10 = Undefined >>
  13.     -- quest_giver =    9, Updated, was 9 now 6
  14.     quest_giver =    6, -- Arbitrary number pointing to an NPC Name 81004, "Abnur Tharn"  << -1 = Undefined >>
  15. }

Lua Code:
  1. lib:get_quest_name(id, lang)
  2. -- returns: Quest Name; type string

Lua Code:
  1. lib:get_questids_table(name, lang)
  2. -- returns: Quest IDs; type table
  3. -- {6404, }
  4. -- {5079, 5749, },

NOTE: Multiple ID numbers means there are multiple quests with the same name.

Use: Drawing a pin with a different color if the player has started the
quest and has not finished it yet. Loop over the table.

Example:
Lua Code:
  1. ids = lib:get_questids_table(name, lang)
  2. for _, id in ipairs(ids) do
  3.     started_quests[id] = true
  4. end

Lua Code:
  1. lib:build_questid_table(lang)
  2. -- specialized use: builds a table of Quest IDs with the index being the
  3. -- Quest Name. LibQuestData uses this to return a table of quest IDs using
  4. -- the quest name lib:get_questids_table(id, lang).
  5.  
  6. -- LibQuestData only initializes the client language. If additional lookup
  7. -- tables are needed for other languages, call this during your mods
  8. -- initialization phase.

Planed features for Version 2

1:
Lua Code:
  1. -- return additional quest data
  2.  
  3. lib.quest_data_index = {
  4.     quest_name      =    1, -- Number index of quest name i.e. 6404 for "The Dragonguard"
  5.     quest_type      =    2, -- MAIN_STORY, DUNGEON
  6.     quest_repeat    =    3, -- quest_repeat_daily, quest_repeat_not_repeatable = 0, quest_repeat_repeatable
  7.     game_api        =    4, -- 100003 means unverified, 100030 or 100030 means quest data collected from API 100030 or higher
  8.     quest_line      =    5,    -- QuestLine (10000 = not assigned/not verified. 10001 = not part of a quest line/verified)
  9.     quest_number    =    6,    -- Quest Number In QuestLine (10000 = not assigned/not verified)
  10.     quest_series    =    7,    -- None = 0,    Cadwell's Almanac = 1,    Undaunted = 2, AD = 3, DC = 4, EP = 5.
  11. }

2:
Expand built in data collection to update information instead of only collecting new information. Meaning that if there are multiple pins for a quest, duplicate pins close to the player location would be removed in favor of the new location. The auto update would also compare information like quest name, quest giver, quest type, whether or not it is repeatable, and the Game API. Game's API version will mean the quest is still available in the current version.

3:
For avid data collectors and experts a slash command to remove ALL pins on the map prior to accepting a quest in order to clean up duplicate pins. Data would be submitted on GitHub.

Try the current version with ItalianScrollsOnline if you want, up to you.

Destinations has error checking and will tell you that the language is not supported but it should still work.
All three addons were on their respective current version but I've got that error anyway. I'll try again (making the proper backup ) now that I know where the issue should be.

Thanks for your suggestion.

EDIT: sorry I misunderstood 'cause didn't see the last release of the library... I apologize

EDIT_2: Tested and the LibQuestData errors are gone, btw Destinations issue still remain.

It is because you are using an unofficial translation of the game. I have no way to get any quest names, menu options, achievement data, or any information except in the games official languages. I will see what I can do.

Now I have no errors and Destination setup menu works as intended.

Zoning and login errors

Hi Sharlikran,

here to report a couple of errors I'm getting when I login and/or after the zoning screen.

Error #1 seems to be related to the Italian Scrolls Online addon, since there's a reference to the "lang" variable (keep in mind that I'm not an expert ):

Lua Code:
  1. bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table/struct expected, got nil)
  2. stack traceback:
  3. [C]: in function 'pairs'
  4. user:/AddOns/LibQuestData/LibQuestData.lua:300: in function 'lib:build_questid_table'
  5. |caaaaaa<Locals> self = [table:1]{last_interaction_target = "", libVersion = 206, player_alliance = 2, client_lang = "it", libName = "LibQuestData"}, lang = "it", lang = "it", built_table = [table:2]{} </Locals>|r
  6. user:/AddOns/LibQuestData/LibQuestData.lua:608: in function 'OnLoad'
  7. |caaaaaa<Locals> eventCode = 65536, addOnName = "LibQuestData" </Locals>|r

Error #2:

Lua Code:
  1. user:/AddOns/LibQuestData/LibQuestData.lua:375: attempt to index a nil value
  2. stack traceback:
  3. user:/AddOns/LibQuestData/LibQuestData.lua:375: in function 'build_completed_quests'
  4. |caaaaaa<Locals> id = 5071, i = 0 </Locals>|r
  5. user:/AddOns/LibQuestData/LibQuestData.lua:424: in function 'OnPlayerActivatedQuestBuild'
  6. |caaaaaa<Locals> eventCode = 589824 </Locals>|r

Any clue or advice?

Thanks in advance for your help:

Cheers

Well wait a few weeks. Even if you have a quest for one of the Elder scrolls and you can't do it, just abandon it and get a new quest the next day. That will still record the data I need. I am taking a brief break but still making minor adjustments slowly so that LibQuestData cleans out data I have already obtained.

Apologies if I came across as demanding. With regards to what you said, having that kind of validation checking if quests still exist is definitely a super valuable thing. The only reason I suggested it for those quests was because the nature of the zone could make it difficult to hit all of them.

And above all, definitely don't over-sacrifice your time.

I can feel you Sharlikran.
Thanks for all the time you invest(ed) into optimizing the quest data AND addons!
-> It's not said often enough imo

To the users complaining/claiming/or even raging: Learn to code such data libraries and addons yourself, or simply stop using them.
The best would be you behave like the vast majority of the other users and "support the addons and data collection", instead of trying
to destroy all the work done by friendly, unpaied volunteers.

Please be just patient and wait, it takes time, and we all got a life beside the game(s). Thank you

I am sorry for this long response and I am sure the request probably wasn't meant to be unappreciative but I need to vent because I need people to calm down and just play. Which is something I'm not even getting to do. I almost missed getting myself and my son the event berries for the Ice mount. I missed getting my son the last feather because of exhaustion over working on things. I have spent more time working on this project then I have playing the game.

This is a good article on being user friendly. While the duplicate pins do interfere to some extent and are more annoying to some then others, posting comments that create a sense of urgency in eliminating them is getting on my nerves. User friendly is a concept where the program is useful and easy to understand. Which I am constantly working on. User friendly is not when something is an annoyance and the person is just OCD about it. Is there a term for that?

As far as the classification of quests goes in regards to daily and repeatable. I like it the way it is. There are quests you can only do once a day like a Writ and some quests can be obtained and completed multiple times in a day. The idea of a repeatable or daily is from the API directly, I didn't create that classification. In addition to that I have plans to use the different classifications and show whether or not a user did the quests that you can only do once a day. So don't interfere with the process. This will probably not be introduced for a while but something I am looking to add at a later time.

No!11!!11 I will not manually edit information and I would be upset if anyone did and submitted that information. I have had routines in place since I started working on this so I can determine whether or not the quest has been removed from the game. The quest could have been updated and the ID changed which means I can remove the older ID and the pins for it. Some fields in the quest data is not to be altered and others can be manually altered to fit different purposes. If I need to add another field that can be done.

I already have plans to eliminate more of the duplication of pins and simplify the information presented. However, it will take time please be patient. I might even stop working on this for a few weeks so I can actually play and level another character. Just because I stop working on it doesn't mean I need reminded of things that could be changed to make things more user friendly.

I started this project because of the things that annoyed me about quest mods. The biggest issue for me being you have to collect the data differently for each mod. I felt there needs to be one library with accurate information. I already have this working with my personal copy of Destinations. Then there was the massive amount of pins on the map and no quest to be found at that location. Updating this will depend on help from users.

I am not too arrogant to know that I am not perfect and someone may make a suggestion that is better then my idea. So by all means keep making suggestions. I am sure there are things that could be done differently.

Although it will take more work then people realize, and I have the collection in process, I am looking to add the exclamation mark to the NPC itself or close to the NPC as a 3D pin.

If after a few weeks of playing you would like to submit your quest data then do so. Not having to collect all the data myself would be nice. However, I want the information to be accurate and unaltered by human hands.

What would be most helpful is if people would just be patient, keep LibQuestData and QuestMap up to date, relax and play the game.

These should all be daily quests.
The Capture ones (and presumable the Scout & Scroll ones too) are repeatable as you can obtain it again once a keep has been taken by the enemy again. The Kill & Bounty ones are indeed daily.

Tho I feel like these kinds of quests (obtained from a board) should perhaps just get a special name/marker that just says "Scout/Capture/etc quests" instead of all the different versions of each type being in one spot. Same thing for crafting writs, just 2 markers for each of the writ quest board per location.
