Creating Your Own Quests

Quest File Location

Quest files are stored in your Hytale save folder:

Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Hytale/UserData/Saves/Modding/plugins/QuestBook/quests/

Windows: %APPDATA%/Hytale/UserData/Saves/Modding/plugins/QuestBook/quests/

Edit the included vanilla_quests.json or create your own .json files. Use /questadmin reload to apply changes without restarting.

Task Types

Craft

{ "type": "craft", "id": "craft_sword", "item": "Weapon_Sword_Copper", "count": 1 }

Kill

{ "type": "kill", "id": "kill_trorks", "mob": "Trork_*", "count": 10 }

Block Break

{ "type": "block_break", "id": "mine_ore", "block": "Ore_*", "count": 20 }

Item Collection

{ "type": "item", "id": "have_iron", "item": "Ingredient_Bar_Iron", "count": 10, "consume": false }

Set consume: true to require players to turn in items via a "Submit Items" button.

Location Discovery

{ "type": "location", "id": "reach_desert", "zone": "HowlingSands*" }

Or use depth-based checks:

{ "type": "location", "id": "go_deep", "below_y": 110 }

Use /quest location in-game to find zone and biome names.
