Quest Machine Journal

[qest43]

Hey, I want to have quest journal in one of the tab menu. How can I move Quest Journal to be a part of this system, and not be an popup window? I want this quest journal be always shown in quest tab when we are there.

Hi,

Please see: How To: Put Journal UI In Your Own Menu

Yes it works, I have problem with assigning quest to player, I do it via script of Dialogue Manager. I added Quest Giver script to a NPC and I added Quest to Quests list there, but when I add quest from the script I got an error:
Quest Machine: NPC.GiveQuestToQuester - quester (QuestListContainer) is null.

Hi,

Does your player have a Quest Journal component? Make sure to pass the player GameObject with the Quest Journal component.

Here's another way to give a quest to a quester (player):

How To: Start Quest From Script

Yes! That actually works. i have another question, how can I assign Quest Journal UI to Quest Machine in another way, because my QuestUI Prefab is in tabsystem prefab so they can't communicate in way when I can drag it there, can I assign it from script somehow or there is another solution?

And how can I use keyboard for navigate quest journal UI, I use Dialogue System too and when I add InputDeviceManager component to Quest Machine GameObject, Dialogues doesnt want to trigger?

Can I change quest journal UI to text mesh pro?

You can assign it in script by assigning QuestMachine.defaultQuestJournalUI:

Code: Select all

QuestMachine.defaultQuestJournalUI = YourJournalUI;

or assign it to the player's Quest Journal component in the inspector or in a script.

And how can I use keyboard for navigate quest journal UI, I use Dialogue System too and when I add InputDeviceManager component to Quest Machine GameObject, Dialogues doesnt want to trigger?

Don't add another InputDeviceManager. The Dialogue System already has one, and there can only be one in a scene. Instead, inspect the Dialogue Manager's InputDeviceManager and tick Always Auto Focus.

Can I change quest journal UI to text mesh pro?

Yes. It's the exact same process as DS: TextMesh Pro Support.

When I have QuestJournalUI on standard canvas in QuestMachine, and assigned this Journal prefab to QuestJournalUI serialized field, quests are showed on Quest Journal. But when I Put Journal UI In my Own Menu, and I assign this journal via script:

Code: Select all

        [SerializeField] private UnityUIQuestJournalUI UnityUIQuestJournalUI;

        public void Start()
        {
            QuestMachine.defaultQuestJournalUI = UnityUIQuestJournalUI;
        }

this quests are not showing in this journal then.

Hi,

That should work. But you could alternatively try assigning your journal UI to the player's QuestJournal instead.

If that doesn't help, please send a reproduction project to tony (at) pixelcrushers.com.
