I'm having trouble formulating what I need help with. I feel I'm lacking an overall grasp of how to get QM to do what I want it to do.
I can set it up, follow the tutorials, but as soon as I stray from that path nothing works for me.
I think I am specifically having trouble with the nodes, their states, and how all that actually works together.
Anyway, here is how I am trying to visually digest all this.
I don't really expect an answer here, just thinking out loud.

Re: General Help
Hi,
Let me know if I can help, or brainstorm/think through the process with you.

Re: General Help
Thanks for the reply and your patience. Sorry I'm having such trouble wrapping my head around this.
So each quest has states with dialog options, as does each node.
The Quest Giver has dialog options too.
I'm processing here, so forgive me
When do each of these dialogues come into play? There are so many things to setup and connect that I loose the flow of my quest. I can usually understand stuff like this, especially after working for days on it and laying it out graphically. I even wrote tutorials based on the video tutorials (which I will give you if you are interested).
So I can setup the scene and sample quests in my sleep, but I still fail to grasp an "inner visual image" or an understanding of the system and how it all works. I can usually get this, but I am just as befuddled as when I started. I'm hoping I'm missing something that will make it all click.
My issue seems to surround the nodes and states. Any insight from anyone is welcomed.
Thanks again!
