Compiling (8.60) The Forgotten Server 1.2

[Jompi]

I have compiled this [8.60] The Forgotten Server 1.2 and I have noticed some bugs with it.

First of, your character walks really clunky and choppy, like if you are hasted and change direction the character moves really strange. Especially when you mapclick, the character lags really much if you do that.

Second - The quest system just does not work. Is there another quest system I am not aware of or is it just a bug?
I have tried the regular actionID 2000 and UniqueID ***** but when you click the chest in-game it just opens the chest and the item is inside it, also you can move the chest.

So my questions are:
• Can I do something to these bugs, and if so - Can anyone give a few tips?
And did I do something wrong when compiling this or is this a bug within the data?



I have been away from the OT community for quite a while and recently returned. I am reading about compiling so I am not very good at it yet. So if anyone has any solutions to this have in mind that I am not the best compiler out there

Thanks in advance!

Didn't know I could edit a comment.

the quest system doesnt work like that anymore, the way the tfs 1.2 default works you put the item's id as unique id on the chest.. I find that pretty annoying aswell, because you will want to have several exceptions.. So you have to code the quests yourself/add them to the quests.lua..

Ah, that explains it. Like you had to do before actionID 2000? I remember that. Any idea how to make a quest that rewards a backpack of items? Otherwise I'm sure there's a tutorial around here somewhere.

Thanks for clarifying that for me ^^

give the chest an unused unique id and change the quests.lua to if item.uid == your-chosen-unique-id then player:additem() ~~~

EDIT:
I have something like this:

    elseif item.uid == 1994 then
        if player:getStorageValue(1994) == -1 then
            local bag = Container(1994)
            bag:addItem(2168)
            bag:addItem(2144, 2)
            bag:addItem(2152, 3)
            local totalWeight = bag:getCapacity()
            if playerCap >= totalWeight then
                player:sendTextMessage(MESSAGE_INFO_DESCR, 'You have found a purple bag that contains some valuables.')
                player:addItemEx(bag)
                player:setStorageValue(item.uid, 1)
            else
                player:sendTextMessage(MESSAGE_INFO_DESCR, 'You have found a purple bag that contains some valuables weighing ' .. totalWeight .. ' oz it\'s too heavy.')
            end
        end

Delete everything in the quest.lua or add that text?

I get this error:
[Warning - Event::checkScript] Can not load script: scripts/quests/quests.lua
data/actions/scripts/quests/quests.lua:1: <eof>' expected near 'elseif'

add the text, doesn't delete anything.

add the text, doesn't delete anything.

That's when I get that error. I will just try to make individual chests for each items instead since it doesn't seem to work to have a container with items
Thanks anyway!

This is the one, haven't edited anything in it.

local annihilatorReward = {1990, 2400, 2431, 2494}

        return false
    end

    local itemType = ItemType(item.uid)
    if itemType:getId() == 0 then
        return false
    end

    local itemWeight = itemType:getWeight()
    local playerCap = player:getFreeCapacity()
    if isInArray(annihilatorReward, item.uid) then
