[LE] QuestName.stop() Not Working

[siashim]

Hey everyone!

I'm having an issue with a script I'm trying to run. I searched for running a script once, and from what I found out, the best way to this is to run the script as quest. So I followed the tutorials(created a quest, added the script to the quest, and so on), but after testing it seems like the script doesn't work. I do get the debug message, but the script doesn't do what is suppose to.

Here is my script:

Scriptname ModCompanionsQuestReset extends Quest  
CompanionsStoryQuest property C00 auto
Event OnInit()
	C00.Stop()
	Utility.Wait(10.0)
	Debug.Notification("ModCompanionsQuestReset is initialized")
EndEvent

I would appreciate any help with this.

Change CompanionStoryQuest to simply Quest, and Stop() will work.

Doing that did not stop the C00 quest. Sqv command shows the state as running.

You also need to make sure the property is filled with the quest.

 

Also c00 has a stage where it is checked as quest being completed. This will register the quest as running even though is no longer in the active quest list. There's no documentation on issues with Stop though, so I don't know what could prevent a quest stopping. It's so easy to prevent a quest from starting though.

 

I guess you can call CompleteAllQuestObjectives() on c00, and then call stop and see if that does anything.

I'm not sure how to check to see if the property is filled with quest. Do I just output the value for the property to see if it's not NULL?

In the CK go into the scripts properties and check that c00 still has the quest you set it to in the first place.

Thanks guys, as you mentioned the problem was that no quest was assigned to the property. I did need to change the property type to only quest for the the specific quest that I was looking for to show up in the list. Thanks again.

Here is the corrected code:

Scriptname ModCompanionsQuestReset extends Quest  
Quest property C00 auto
Event OnInit()
	C00.Stop()
	Utility.Wait(10.0)
	Debug.Notification("ModCompanionsQuestReset is initialized")
EndEvent
