[Adonthell-devel] quests, quest events and log book

[Kai Sterker]

I have committed a more complete quest implementation, including  
events when the status of a quest changes. Unlike in v0.3, where  
quest state flags where created at runtime, they need to be  
predefined in the new code. Therefore, a editor will be required to  
create the quest tree. Since I had no time for this, I wrote a little  
Python script that will convert a quest tree in XML format into the  
format required by the engine (test/convert_quests.py). A sample  
quest tree for use with the questtest.py test script can be found in  
test/data/quests.xml. To run questtest.py, you need to specify the -g  
parameter, so that the quest.data file can be found:

  python questtest.py -g /home/kai/adonthell/src/test

(-g will add the given directory to the game data search path of the  
engine).

What isn't finished yet is adding log book entries on start or  
completion of a quest. It's the next point on my list though.

I will write some more documentation for the quest stuff in the Wiki,  
when I find the time.
