Lore & Legend: Already Examined

[bjcasey]

I'm looking for a way to determine if a Lore and Legend item has already been examined. Hopefully there is something similar to the way collectibles are known to have been collected by using .AlreadyCollected.

Stuff I Have Tried (A Gnoll Paw):

Code: ${Me.Inventory[a gnoll paw].Name}

Returns: a gnoll paw

Code: ${Me.Inventory[a gnoll paw].Description}

Returns: It appears that this item could be studied to learn more about the nature of the gnoll.

Code: ${Me.Inventory[a gnoll paw].ExamineText}

Returns:
a gnoll paw
TREASURED
Class : All

Code: ${Me.Inventory[a gnoll paw].IsCollectible}

Returns: FALSE

Code: ${Me.Inventory[a gnoll paw].AlreadyCollected}

Returns: NULL

Code: ${Me.Inventory[a gnoll paw].OffersQuest}

Returns: None

Code: ${Me.Inventory[a gnoll paw].RequiredByQuest}

Returns: Lore and Legend: Gnoll


Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'm going to let you do the investigation and let me know which flags are which.

Make sure that you are using the latest ISXEQ2 and run this script:

function main()
{
    variable int i = 1
    variable int Timer = 0
    
    Me:CreateCustomInventoryArray[nonbankonly]
    wait 5
    
    if ${Me.CustomInventoryArraySize} < 5
    {
        eq2execute /togglebags
        wait 10
        eq2execute /togglebags
        wait 3
        Me:CreateCustomInventoryArray[nonbankonly]
    }    

  do
  {
    if !${Me.CustomInventory[${i}](exists)}
        continue
        
    if (!${Me.CustomInventory[${i}].IsInitialized})
    {
        Timer:Set[0]
        Me.CustomInventory[${i}]:Initialize
           do
           {
               wait 1
               Timer:Inc
           }
           while (!${Me.CustomInventory[${i}].IsInitialized} && ${Timer} < 30)
      }

    echo "${Me.CustomInventory[${i}].Name}:  ${Me.CustomInventory[${i}].State}"
  }
  while ${i:Inc}<=${Me.CustomInventoryArraySize}
}

It will spew a "debug" line for each item that looks something like this: NAME: # (# # #). The values in the parenthesis are the individual flags for the item. See if you see some logic to which items match which flags, etc. and then let me know what you discover. I'm sure the answer is there; however, I don't want to misname any datatype members simply because I didn't test it on enough items.

What about other items that are also "Required by a Quest" or are just 'clickable'? I would like to be able to definitely state what the flag numbers mean as it relates to all items.

 

[bjcasey]

Items that are required by a quest (Specifically, these are the items from a quest in Runnyeye 2 and were the only items I currently had to test with):

desert crawler insides:  State: 0x3 (1h 2h )
Grungetalon spiced meat:  State: 0x3 (1h 2h )
goblin-prepared Kunarkian herbs:  State: 0x3 (1h 2h )

Item required by quest for the Destiny of Velious: Skyshrine Raid Apprentice

Yelnar's Binding Stone:  State: 0x3 (1h 2h )

Offer's Quest:

a small trinket: State: 0x3 (1h 2h )
Rune of the Awakened: State: 0x3 (1h 2h )
crumpled hand-written note: State: 0x3 (1h 2h )
a storm giant's beard:  State: 0x3 (1h 2h )

What did you mean by "just clickable" items?

 

[Amadeus]

So, it looks like all items with the "1" flag are capable of being clicked, while if it's missing the "1" it means that clicking it will not do anything. What would you suggest for a name for this in the extension? "QuestItemUsable"?

I like the way you have named things in the past, so I would suggest ".IsQuestItemUsable".

Thanks Amadeus.

Once i've got the item identified and clicked, how do I get it to accept the "Begin to Study..."

 

[macker0407]

It's a ReplyDialog window. The wiki will tell you how to interact with them.

 

[greeneyes137]

Thanks, I was having problems trying to figure out the window type.

 

[greeneyes137]

It's a ReplyDialog window. The wiki will tell you how to interact with them.

What type of ReplyDialog window?

How do I figure out the type of window a window that is active/up is so that I can then code for it's buttons/options?

 

[macker0407]

If you're unable to read the wiki after specifically being told to get the information from it, I cannot help you.

 

[greeneyes137]

Probably because I was looking at the wrong place on the wiki.

Thanks anyway.
