2 little suggestions.

Add parenthesis to your tests :

Code:

if (plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, 51510 => 4) && ($zavious == 1))

Second one. This structure :

Code:

if (plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, 51510 => 4) && $zavious == 1) {

} elsif (plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, 69977 => 1) && $zavious == 3) {

} else {
  plugin::return_items(\%itemcount);
}

Will lead to some issues with item turn in and items returned.
The tests with check_handin remove items from the list of handed items if it succeded. In that case, lets say for your first test, if the player gives 4x51510 but $zavious is not set to 1, the test will fail and he WONT get his items back (because check_handin succeded).

2 possibilities :

Code:

if (($zavious==1) && plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, 51510 => 4)) {

or

Code:

if ($zavious==1) {
  if (plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, 51510 => 4)) {

  }
} elsif ($zavious==3) {
  if (plugin::check_handin(\%itemcount, 59977=>1)) {

  }
}
plugin::return_items(\%itemcount);

If the tests $zavious==2 stil don't work, you could try with ($zavious eq "2")...

Was wondering if you ever got this working?

I picked up a Gambling Script that used Quest::setglobal and it wouldn't reset them either. I ended up having to delete the global variable and reset them each time along with using ($variable=undef);

Even if you set the Global Variable to last only 3 seconds, I could never change it without deleting it.

It's probably ugly by script writers standards, but it works...

I'm learning, but what a pain it is when your in the dark. Having to stop the server and restart it in order to change the quest (you DO have to do this, right) takes so much time. Oh well, once I get it under my belt, It won't take so long.

don't need to restart the server, #reloadpl in the zone after you've made changes to the .pl file.

Thanks ylosh.. I'm printing out the # commands now so I don't make this mistake again.. What a time saver this would have been... lol
