Unable To Restore Quest error [Solved]

Post by KingCeryn »

Hey Tony, so im trying to just load my quests in, but im having trouble getting it to work- for some reason whenever I back out of a scene and re-join, and call my load functions, if i already had quests in my journal it won't restore them, and gives me this error.

There seems to be two empty spaces in my Quest Journal, and then the right quests loaded below them, so something is happening but not sure what. I used this little function you wrote awhile back to not use QuestGivers, but otherwise it works normally- once, without saving and loading scenes.

I can usually load up a few quests, Save once, and then load as many times as i want- However, if I LOAD, add a new quest, SAVE, and try to load again, thats when i get these errors mostly, and i just can't figure out what i'm doin wrong.

Hi,

What version of Quest Machine are you using?

Did you save the game in the same version of Quest Machine or an older version?

On your player's Quest Journal component, what are the values in the Save Settings section?

Here's what It looks like when i start up, add quests, load a scene and SAVE:

I can exit, reload, close the game, do this ads much as i want no problem. However, if i try to add MORE quests after, I can only exit and re-load ONCE, properly like this:

However If I try to then back out a 3rd time, after adding a 2nd batch of quests, SAVING, and exiting- I get the error above, and the journal looks like this:

So it seems like something somewhere is filling the spaces where those quests should be, i just cant figure out what.

Hi,

Would it be possible for you to back up your project and update to the current version? Version 1.2.35 fixed an issue where a two bytes were saved in the wrong order, and they could cause an issue this like.
