Task System (preliminary work)

[Congdar]

should I clear out tasksets as well? is there a "reset" of this task system?

Why would I delete them as you suggest above? They were part of the svn sql additions. Were they changed/corrected at some point maybe after I had already done the imports? I'd like to have it set up the way you intended but it seems to not be working correctly for me.

the rules relating to the task system... I don't have any in my rules table as I'm taking the default from the code settings. Does there need to be a non-default change in the database rule_values to have them work correctly?

You can just add the sample tasks rather than delete them. Makes your DB more complete.

My sample tasks 1 to 11, along with accompanying Perl quests and notes on the sample tasks are linked in this thread:

http://eqemulator.net/forums/showthread.php?t=26302

If you source the SQL from that thread, it will drop and recreate all the task related tables, and you will then need to execute the following SQL, as that thread predates these changes:

ALTER TABLE `tasks` DROP `stepped` ;
ALTER TABLE `tasks` ADD `minlevel` TINYINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
ADD `maxlevel` TINYINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '0';
ALTER TABLE `tasks` ADD `repeatable` TINYINT( 1 ) UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '1';

To 'reset' the task system, if you should ever want to:

truncate tasks;
truncate activities;
truncate character_tasks;
truncate character_activities;
truncate character_enabledtasks;
truncate completed_tasks;
truncate goallists;
truncate proximities;
truncate tasksets;

The default rule values are fine, no need to change them in the database.

thank you, all the logging errors are gone now.
