Sub-Category : Graphics: Particle Effects
Severity     : Severe (e.g. Exploitable)
Reproducible : Every time

Details:
Just running a new char through Dahknarg's quests to make sure it all works. Now when you get a quest to click on something in world, the sparkles and "!" don't show when you're on the quest. They do however show after you've turned it in. It's done it consistantly on three quests now (Spiritblossom Harvest, Resource Denial, and The essence of souls.)

Originated From World: New Telon (1)
Chunk                : Dahknarg (180)

Just to note, this was my toon. I did this last night on a brand new character. I ran through these before when I first set them up and everything worked fine. As far as I know, nothing changed in the quest-related scripts.

I know what this is related to and will fix it this afternoon. Thanks!

[zippyzee]

Should be fixed on my latest commit when it goes live. This was caused by creating code to handle someone who has completed but not turned in a quest deleting an item. When they do, the quest interactives need to come back to life so they can "re-" finish it. The auto-deletion of quest items at turnin was triggering this response.

Fix one problem, create two others.

That makes it just like the old vanguard!

Seriously, thanks for working on all this stuff Zippy, considering we found this stuff last night around midnight EST, that means a lot that you fixed it so quickly.

Zippy just fix a bug that was on Live? Are we venturing away from the "just like sunset" mantra?

[zippyzee]

What was the bug on live? That you couldn't interact again to obtain the items if you "un-finished" a quest?

And it doesn't answer why you couldn't see the interactives in the first place. There may be more to it. The quests I tested with were working fine today, though.

[Jakkal]

No, it didn't behave like that on live.

I think Moldew is joking about the lack of devs, and how they never fixed anything. (especially after sunset's announcement where more bugs somehow popped up.)
