Select First Quest on Open

Post by hipsterdufus »

The "Select First Quest On Open" option doesn't seem to work on the Standard UI Quest Log Window component. I tried with the built-in quest log prefab and I still have to manually select the first quest for it to show the details. Is this a known issue?

Hi,

Try also ticking 'Show Details On Select' in addition to 'Select First Quest On Open'.

Also make sure your game is showing the quest log window that you ticked those checkboxes on.

That does work but then it shows the quest details when hovering over the quest titles. I only want it to show details on click.

Got it. This patch should address that:

With this patch it only shows the first quest's details no matter which quest I click on. Is it the same on your end?

That works but one more slight issue or question - if I click the currently selected quest again it shows the details for the first quest while keeping the current quest selected (I have a selected animation state on the button that highlights the quest when it's selected). Is there any way to make it stay on the currently selected quest? It seems like clicking on a quest behaves more like an on/off toggle instead of a button but I'm not sure how to change the behavior.

Another little thing - the first time I open the quest log, it selects and shows details for the first quest just fine, but on subsequent opens it does not show the first quest as being selected (I just have an animation state for selected that should be showing). I can see that the first time I open the quest log window, the first quest button is in the selected animation state, but every other time I open the quest log it is in the normal animation state which is wrong. It still shows the first quest's details on open just fine.

Hi,

Please try this patch:

DS_QuestLogWindowPatch_2021-10-25a.unitypackage

I included an updated file that wasn't in the previous package. It adds a 'Deselect Quest On Second Click' checkbox that defaults to ticked. You'll want to untick it in your case.
