[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

Topic: Idea for Digero's Quest Timer plugin

	I think a nice improvement would be to add the option of grouping together timers that are a part of the same quest, such as all of the individual Walking Boots pieces under a collapsable 'Walking Boots' listing. The timer functionality wouldn't change, only the way it's displayed in the timer window. Something like this... Aerlinthe + [expands to:] Aerlinthe - - Pyreal Forge Bellows - Sluice Gate Bar - Aerfalle (Normal) - Aerfalle (Hard) Burun Kings + Burun Kings - - 1 Reeshan - 2 Kiree - 3 Broodu - 4 Keerik - 5 Rehir - 6 Browerk ...you get the idea. -----signature----- Maethor, Legos, Yarvek, Talice Morningthaw - Celestial Hand The multiverse sings / of all these things

	This is similiar to what White Mage's Quest Timer did. Honestly, I didn't like going through the lists, trying to figure out what list a quest is part of. One thing that I've been doing, is download a quest and edit it, then put a prefix on it (similiar to the Kill Master Quest that are already on the server). For example, the different parts of the Shadowfire Stone, I've added "Shadowfire Stone - " to the prefix. just thinking about this a little more, it might be nice to have the option to put in a "Master Quest" input box, so you can associate one part of a quest with the master quest (i.e. belows pickup associated with aerlinthe), then you can display it like above on a webpage or something. -----signature----- Proud member of The Knights of Fortune Mr Adventure - Lil' Pew - Da Noob - Qar Yaroz - Yanno http://www.fortunesway.com

	It's a good idea, but I don't intend to add new features to Quest Timer in the foreseeable future. My time is limited and I'd like to work GoArrow and on other plugins that I haven't updated for ToD yet. The quest name prefixing that yaroz mentioned works pretty well at keeping related quests grouped together. -----signature----- [LotRO] Digero (Guardian), Digrim (Burglar), Dignite (LM), Azrea (Hunter) - Landroval [AC] Digero, Lyera, Draxxe - Leafcull (Retired) [CoH] Devil's Zealot, Scinta, Izzard - Guardian (Retired) Digero's AC Decal Plugins: http://decal.acasylum.com
