I'm having some problems and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, but I'm having a hard time linking a 2nd part to quests such as meditation for 7 new classes, what I did is copied #13 (druid) and changed the # value to reflect each new class, the quest works up to the return part you even get the magical rune in your inventory, but when you ask return he wont give exp or meditate ability. he just looks at you.
Any help would be appreciated.
Here's the line I'm using
check class:class 16:minlevel 20 2614:takeitem 1351:message 2639:message 2640:addexp 5000:minlevel 20:failability 187:giveability 187 1:text 9026
Then for each different class I change class # but keep the rest of the line the same.

Don't know it was from a original line that I copied from class #13 (druid)

Because you copied the line verbatim, the values need to be changed.
check class:class 16:minlevel 20 2614:takeitem 1351:message 2639:message 2640:addexp 5000:minlevel 20:failability 187: <--- That should be your problem. Failability checks whether you have the ability (187 - Meditate), and if so, the text quits. That might explain why he just sits there and does nothing.
You may need a new ability step for the new quest in the chain, or you could start a new ability if you'd prefer.

Well the problem is there's not enough characters for me to add the other classes to the 9046 textblock for meditate, so I have to link/add another textblock and somehow get the link to work or w/e, I'm trying to link 9046 to 14002 and I guess I'm not doing something right. dont think it has anything to do with the failability because none of the characters have the meditate ability yet.

Re: Adding classes to quests
Meditate is text block 9046 and goes 9046 --> from 9050 (Dhelvanen looks up from his meditations at you.......) to 9046

There is not much char room left in stock, I believe 9 chara left after all that.
Linking the spell does not work.
The reason is this --> links work first as a reference, when say text block one is trigered it will say read text block 2 after the command is triggered.
However, I overcame it by rebuilding the text block, making two parts. PArt one is the copy of the original, part two extends on part one. This way it reads as a continuous read, instead of saying part one is done now link it to part 2.
The other way to overcome the problem is to give them inherit Bash, Meditate etc and the class ability and raise the amount of exp needed to level such as.

This is not true at all...You can keep the classes the way they are and follow up the Meditate quest with a 2nd quest.
You can string many textblocks together by using parts. Each part is a full page for the textblock. Try using your line editor in Nightmare...it will track the parts and keep it organized.

Re: Adding classes to quests
That is what I stated the first thing to do is part them together. The second way is to just make it inherit. I found it easier to get working when you rebuild the entire textblock say if your rebuilding text block 500 (for example) copy and paste in a new block number than list it as part one. The next text block part, list as part 2. I have added almost 100 new quests, as well as add every new class to all the quests doing it the part one way.
However, in the case of Vampires and Juggernauts I gave one inherit Meditate and othr Inherit bash.
The only text blocks that might need a complete rebuild are the evil lvl 50 quests, Metro left a few things out when doing them. When she adds any new classes to evil lvl 50 quests, with those it will require a complete rebuild.
I noticed, before I rebuilt it, the new classes would get as far as the tapestry, but would not be able to kill Lich. It has no problem when the new classes was Good or Neutral. It almost seems that the lvl 50 quests was not totaly completed when released from Metro.
Making new align quests will be easier to do once you get the hang of how the lvl 50 quests left off as well. Making new status quests are much more simple. And they help provide the player with greater choice to do a simple quest early and get a small benefit or wait it out to they get alot bigger and get a much bigger award for completing them.

I totally agree with this. I'm working on a quest pack that really fleshes out legit MMud's status enhancement quests for this exactly this reason. I'll likely release it individually and also together with the MMR mod once Greatermud is released.

Re: Adding classes to quests
I just wanted to check but is µ¿×&5/? characters like this supposed to be at the end of each textblock?
