I suspect this is something very basic, but I can't really find it in the docs. How can I open the quest journal with a script?

I'm using rewired, and I imported the 3rd party support for it, so I have the "InputDeviceManagerRewired.cs" attached to a gameobject.

I have an action called "Quest Journal" which I can trigger, and from another script, I can detect that the keyboard shortcut for it works.

I also have the "Quest Input Device Manager" prefab. Here I wasn't sure what to do, but I added "Quest Journal" under "Key buttons to check", and in "On Use Keyboard" I added UnityUIQuestJournal.Show().

Yet nothing happens. If I can show it by code instead, I can just hook it up to another place where I read Rewired inputs. But do I need to make a reference or is there a static method I can use?

All this work, and then I finally tried making a reference to the questJournal in my player, and bind this to happen when the rewired input is pressed: Is that the proper way to do it? Can I remove all of the other stuff? Since I will have support for joypads too, it would be interesting to know if I can still control it myself, or if I have any use of the "Quest Input Device Manager" prefab. Is it documented somewhere?

Hi,

To open and close the quest journal, call the QuestJournal component's ShowJournalUI(), HideJournalUI(), or ToggleJournalUI() methods.

If you don't already have a reference to the quest journal, use the static method QuestMachine.GetQuestJournal().

Example:

Thanks, it all worked very well, and I don't need to have an inspector assigned reference anymore.
