[QuestHUD BETA] Daily Quest Requirement Display.

​

Hello EcoCityCraft community!

Over the past (not sure how long), I’ve been working on a small project in an attempt to help out the ECC community. It’s a project that will very likely include the community, and in essence is “by the community” and “for the community”. I will explain this in further detail shortly.

Some of you may have read this suggestion where some interest was expressed in a HUD for quests. Some of you may have also read my post about creating a client-side solution for the suggestion. I had a prototype for it, however I hadn't "put pen to paper" until a bit thereafter. As such, I figured I would help out the ECC community and whip something up.

QuestHUD is a Minecraft mod requiring the Fabric API and Minecraft 1.21.1. (This mod was tested entirely against Fabric Loader v0.16.7, Fabric API 0.106.0+1.21.1, and Minecraft 1.21. I would highly suggest you use these to prevent any unintended side effects, though if success is found with other configurations, feel free to drop them below.)

Spoiler: Reference for the Below Info

The basis of "QuestHUD" is this:

• This mod features two commands:
  • /qhud <quest>
    • This command activates a scoreboard for the quest. For example, if /dquests has a quest named “SpringTulips” as part of “PetalAndLeaf”, I would type “/qhud SpringTulips” to generate the HUD.

  • /qhud <quest> info
    • This command prints requirements for quest <quest> in chat. For example, if I were to type “/qhud SpringTulips info”, I would see that this quest requires breaking 64 pink tulips, 64 red tulips, 64 orange tulips, and 64 white tulips.

• The HUD’s header shows the quest name, while in white are the required materials.
  • For example, “/qhud SpringTulips” shows Pink Tulips, Red Tulips, Orange Tulips, and White Tulips. These are the required blocks to break for the quest.
• To the right of the required blocks are a number.
  • This number represents the progress towards the quest. For example, if I require 64 Pink Tulips and break 32, I will need 32 more, so I should see 32 in red to the right of “Pink Tulips”.
  • A number in green means that the requirements have been met. (This should be the number 0.)
  • There are a couple of catches (as I may have mentioned previously):
    • I do not have access to what all of the daily quests are or what they could be, nor do I think this information would want to be shared (...correct me if I'm wrong, ECC Administration). Therefore, I need the community’s help in creating a list of daily quests. (For example, I added my quest of "GlimmersInTheDark" to the possibilities since these are the only two I have available.) If you would like to report the requirements you have for a quest, please drop a reply to this thread.
    • Currently, QuestHUD will only keep track of block breaking quests (for now... perhaps I'll implement others in the future, as I know crafting quests are a rather popular category too).
    • Moreover, currently all block breaks are logged, rather than just natural blocks that are broken, which quests are based off of. (For example, if you were to place a Pink Tulip and then break it, QuestHUD would count it as progress towards a requirement, while /dquests would not.)
    • The block count resets if you disconnect from the server, or if you generate another display on the side. (mcMMO’s is the only one I can think of off the top of my head at the moment.)

Issues / Comments / Suggestions:

• For any issues, comments, or suggestions, feel free to drop a reply to this thread.
• I will be trying to keep this post as up-to-date as possible.

 

QuestHUD Update - v1.1.0​

• "Strip Log" events should now be handled appropriately by the QuestHUD. You can try this out with "/qhud LegacyStrippedWoods". (This is the only daily quest I have available where stripping logs are required.)
• This will require updating the mod in your "mods" folder.

As always, let me know if you encounter any issues and feel free to report your daily quests!
