Fixed Ardent storyline no reward

[ANSEL]

I just finished the " Inca Temple" Quest. I got no reward for it

You play with Ammo Mod OFF, don't you? That might be the reason.

@Jack Rackham and @Grey Roger would know best though.

 

[ANSEL]

You play with Ammo Mod OFF, don't you? That might be the reason.

Yes thats true, I will try with the mod on then. I think it should work with Ammo mod of too.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

A quiver is an item that allows you to carry more arrows.
But arrows are ammo and therefore don't exist with the mod off.

Maybe those other two items should exist, but I don't know if the way their functionality is written, they actually work without arrows.

 

[ANSEL]

With Ammo mod on I get all the three items.

But arrows are ammo and therefore don't exist with the mod off.

I always get the Arrows with Ammo mod of, also this time. Only the Curare, Tar and Quiver is missing with Ammo mod of, not
the Arrows. Anyway for now I always will play with Ammo mod on, no reason to have it of.

 

[Jack Rackham]

Arrows are "bladearrows" which are blades (not ammo).

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Ah, of course.

So.... is it possible to enable al those items also if that mod is toggled off?

 

[Jack Rackham]

We have to make an exception somewhere then since they are ammunition items.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Looks like they're all inside the if ( ENABLE_AMMOMOD ) check.
It is easy enough to move some outside. But which ones should be moved like that?

 

[Jack Rackham]

Yes it'll be an easy fix. Why not only quiver, tar and curare as they are asked for.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Fine by me.

 

[Jack Rackham]

I can fix that as I have a few changes in initItems.c anyway.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Thanks!

 

[Pieter Boelen]

As a preliminary fix, extract attached to PROGRAM\ITEMS, then press F11 and see if that solves it.

EDIT: Yep, you do get the items now. I have no clue if they'll work properly with Ammo Mod OFF though.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Preliminary fix included in here: Mod Release - Build 14 Beta 4.1 WIP | PiratesAhoy!

 

[Jack Rackham]

Well if it's already fixed...

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Well if it's already fixed...

Quick and dirty fix, just as "proof concept".
As I said, I have no clue if this truly works properly.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

@Grey Roger: Any comments on this?
Do you want to test if those items actually work with Ammo Mod OFF or are you OK with them just showing up?

 

[Grey Roger]

I don't even know what they all do anyway. Apart from the quiver, that is, which presumably is irrelevant without the Ammo Mod as its purpose is to allow you to carry more ammo.

@Jack Rackham: what exactly do curare and tar do, and do they work with Ammo Mod off? If not, I'll just have to think of something else as a reward for completing that quest.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Maybe @ANSEL could confirm on the behaviour of these Indian items with Ammo Mod OFF?

Apart from the quiver, that is, which presumably is irrelevant without the Ammo Mod as its purpose is to allow you to carry more ammo.

Except arrows are not "ammo item types", but "blade item types", so they do actually exist even with that mod off.
But I have no clue if they're used then.

what exactly do curare and tar do

They change your arrows into poisoned/flaming.
