Queston Forever 0.8.9

The Chronicle, a window of its own (new)

• One window for the Chronicle: guides, plans, chains, levels, dungeons, the bag and NPCs, on real maps, with where you stand always at its foot. The tracker's emblem opens it.
• One library for every guide: search every guide you have, your plans and your routes at once, by name, zone or level.
• Build a plan on the loom: each part a lane, the gold thread through the stops, and stops or single quests moved by hand. The workshop opens it full screen, and the ? on its bar teaches it in nine short lessons, with a narrator.
• Routes: keep a plan as a route, share it as a code, import a friend's, and play it across the map with the level at each stop.
• All of it by controller, with a letter board on screen for searches and names. The controller no longer gets blocked when you close the map. Reported by VFK.

The map

• The map's panel, remade: the guides, the zone, chains, instances, the bag and NPCs beside the world map, and a search through every guide.
• The guide's trail: the next stops in numbers with arrows along the way, and the whole terrain drawn.

At quest givers

• The guide in the dialog, in the game's window and in DialogueUI: a seal on the quests your guide wants with its step, the quest's chain as beads, the reward that beats your gear marked, and an ∞ on quests new in Forever.
• Better gear from quests: quests whose rewards beat what you wear, weighed for your spec, make a plan of their own, and the turn-in says which reward to take.
• Help improve Queston: if you want, Queston notes what Forever changed in the quests you see, and what two players saw reaches everyone. Settings › Help improve Queston, or /qf db.

Marks

• Nameplate marks in three looks, with a crest on dungeon bosses, and each mark dragged where you like it on a plate in Settings. Asked for on Discord.
• What to buy: with SkillUp Forever, vendors mark the reagents your professions still need, and its reagent list can stand beside the tracker.
• New in Forever: items new in Forever carry a badge in your bags, in BagSmith and Baganator too. Asked for by Jeor.

The tracker

• One column beside the tracker: the journey, other Forever addons' sections, the target card and notices, none covering another, on the side that faces the screen's middle.
• Each zone's quests five ways: loose, indented, by a line, as a tree or on one ground with the zone's name. While you're here wears the focus's plate and glows when a quest comes in reach.
• Your experience as a gold thread under the tracker's header: the level, what your ready turn-ins give, rested, your pace and the level the route takes you to.
• In a group: each quest's row shows how far the others are, and the guide's card says when the group follows different guides, with Align to meet at a step you all share. Asked for by EZ.
• A dungeon heads-up on every guide's card: how many quests to pick up, what they're worth and whether your guide takes them. It stays until you answer; /qf dungeonhint shows it again.
• Every piece moves in Edit Mode, snaps to the ruler with a red line, and has its own options in its dialog. Reported by Kragmars.

And more

• The target card's poster is a sheet of parchment, and in a dungeon its bosses lead the list.
• On the road: a flight timer on flight paths, instances counted an hour on the route's dungeon stops, a repair stop on the route when your gear wears out, and the quest an item starts named before you destroy it.
• Guides' own arrows: RestedXP and Polestar can keep their own arrows, with or without Shortest Path. Asked for by profess.
• Diagnostic commands (/qf diag, /qf perf) open their text in a window to copy.
• A new map of what's new (/qf news) and a guided tour that covers all of this, narrated in English and Portuguese, where the narrator now says Quest-On (reported by Donkeyman). The map can start over from scratch (/qf news restart), and a map left half seen keeps a card beside the tracker to come back to it.
