Question - Target Quest NPC from Quest preview Window

[Nickdriver77]

Does anyone know of a plugin that will allow you to target the NPC listed in the Quest window? Looking to find a quicker solution to go to the next quest NPC other than typing the NPC's name and then nav to it.

Any input would be awsome!

Thanks!

Very unique idea and I would pay for the option. Or even an option to /travelto when clicking the zone the quest says it occurs in.

well you can /nav spawn name

I strongly advise against /target name then /nav target that is a really bad habit to target stuff across the zone, as it is potentially something that dbg says "hey wait a minute"

I was wondering if there was a tool that would scan pc in zone to see what their targets were, namely if it was yourself or a party member.

The only way to do that would be to target everyone in the zone. Probably not a good idea.

Doing anything in game that you can not physically do with a mouse and keyboard under normal circumstances should be avoided. Otherwise, you may just be asking for problems.

this could maybe be done. i dont have any quests on the toon i have logged in right now though.
using the quest window TLOs you can pull the strings of text, but unless it specifically just says the name of the npc and nothing else, there would be too much variation for it to work well. and i dont think the quest windows do that, think it always says some string of stuff like "find AxeFace behind the shrubs". im not aware of any portion of string management that would make sense, but you might be able to pull individual words out of strings using space as a separator? i dont know if theres a better way.
but, if you overcome that, you could then
/nav spawn StringWordOne
/nav spawn StringWordTwo etcetc
then run a check to see if your moving before checking the next word on and on.

but this will also introduce you to running into other npcs or something too
"behind quarms dog house youll find zeb, go talk to that crazy guy"
and then youd nav spawn into quarm instead of zeb.

all in all, i dont think id try to make this although its interesting. lots of room to mess up and not do things right.
