There is a tutorial at [[Stendhal Quest Coding]] which explains how to write the little computer program for the quest. |

==Doing the quest on test-server with chat log== |
==Doing the quest on test-server with chat log== |
||
The best chat logs for quests are those which explore all possible options for the quest. |
|||
For example say that you already have the items you are supposed to fetch although this is not true, yet. Reject the quest first time and only return later to accept it. Try to ask to start the quest again once it has finished, this kind of thing. |
|||
Please try to play dumb and fool the NPC by asking stupid question which may confuse him. |
|||
Please say Bye when you want to finish the conversation if the NPC is still listening - don't just let him time out. |
