Lacozzini posted a video a while ago on the minecraft forums, detailing a new feature soon to be in a test build. Lacozzini gives us a small preview of each type of quest... And the best part is that they seem to be fully customizable I can imagine now the good quests people will write up and share on the wiki and/or here on the forum. Can't wait for it www.youtube.com/watch?v=41KGhqC3Reg&feature=player_embedded

You think they'll add this in to RC13?

There's no telling. Could be possible that the video was done with only the core code for it. So it could be finished, it could be a long way off. The only way to tell is to wait for it.
I hope the rewards from the quests will be good though, and not something like extra silver coins . (Have several gold and diamond blocks in a vault all made from taxes)

How do you get diamonds from taxes?
And yeah. it'd be nice to get like a special worker chest or special tools or something. Something tells me this isn't likely though.

Use the bank in RC13, you can convert the taxes into iron ingots, gold ingots, and diamonds.
10 Bronze Coins = 1 Silver coin 5 Silver Coins = 1 Gold Coin 2 Gold Coins = 1 Iron Ingot 5 Gold Coins = 1 Gold Ingot 20 Gold Coins = 1 Diamond

Wow, I didn't know that MineColony have forum. That's nice And about the quests, they are not hardcoded. You can specify most of the quest info in MineColony.properties file. I will post examples, so you could get familiar with it and maybe write some new quests. Though it could change as it's still WIP. [Quests] questName1=Creepers! questDescription1=I have got a quest for you. Please kill those creepers. They keep on destroying our houses. They must be around here somewhere. questType1=mobhunting questMobType1=Creeper questSpawnLocation1=random questMobQuantity1=2 questRewardItemId1=46 questReputationReward1=0.2 questFinishedMessage1=Thank you for killing this awful creeper.

questReputationReward3=0.25 Does this mean some form of reputation is also being added? If so what would be the benefits and rewards of having a higher reputation? (by the way, welcome to the forum Lacozzini )

Right now rewards increases happiness of the citizen whom you has given the quest. Maybe you have any other ideas on how it could be done?

Post by Vega Sera on Sept 8, 2011 9:04:53 GMT -7
Increasing happiness sounds great for now.
Perhaps in the future, higher reputation would allow for better quests with better rewards, or maybe lead to something else that would require a high reputation.

Mainly meant it to give the player something else to work towards that gives better rewards.

Quests/Faction to give banners like you get in the Humans+ mod that can spawn town guards etc, would be pretty good I guess...

Ehh, I wouldn't go for the faction thing with minecolony. Doesn't really seem to suit the style
