Quests (Suggestion Rather than Complaint really)
« on: January 22, 2009, 07:27:23 pm »
What I have to say may already be being thought of or in the process, but after running into it several times I think it would be a good addition, especially with the server's connection issues at the moment. When you are going through the dialogue of a quest with an npc if you get booted from the game because of a server disconnect there is no clue as to where you left off when you come back. While trying to figure out the tutorial the last few days I've ran into this several times. I know that VP Servers aren't always the best for stability, especially when you're still in the development stages, however I think a feature or perhaps a keyword to get you back to where you were would be very helpful to your current players. Perhaps something as simple as telling the npc, "Sorry, where were we?" or something along those lines would work great. Have it start the script back where you were. I noticed that if you can find the right words it saves your place in the conversation but after several failed attempts to find the right word this can become very frustrating. Simply resending the last line in the conversation when given key words would alleviate a lot of that frustration.

Again, something you may already be working on or possibly something that just hadn't been brought to your attention yet, and would I believe make game play a lot more enjoyable and easier for people to find out if it's really a problem with the quest or just with their memory. 8)

Okay, guess I didn't look hard enough on that one.  X-/ Well, guess just ignore this then, it's already been brought up.
