Goto POI Help Required

Hi 7D2D Hive Mind, I need your help...

I am trying to create a fetch mission from very early game. I have it working fine but I have an issue with the Goto POI options : RandomPOIGoto and ClosestPOIGoto. One is too close and the other is often too far away.

ClosestPOIGoto

  • What is the distance = "10" property used for?
  • Is it possible to specify a POI tier as a property of this objective?
  • Is it possible to set a minimum closest POI distance ( say 100m )?
  • Are there any other 'undocumented' features for this objective?



RandomPOIGoto

  • Is it possible to set a minimum or maximum distance for this objective?
  • Are there any other 'undocumented' features for this objective?



Tnx

 
I believe, although certainly don't offer this as a certainty, since it's all observational or through past experimentation and each Alpha changed things.

The distance value 10 is used in the test_#### quests. It means that when this quest is triggered it'll activate the quest marker of a POI that is 10 blocks or further away from your current location. As such, setting that to 100 can provide that minimum closest POI distance of 100 for your own creations, as long as the hook up is valid. In the Wasteland Mod, this feature is manipulated for a 'Supply Run' quests where the player's objective is to collect something and return it to the trader. This allows the quest to initiate as a phase 1 action completion with phase 2 being the FetchKeep for things to return to the Trader.

We can certainly set the same biome and any biome. As for setting a maximum distance I don't see that applied for fetch type missions. Biome Rally Point quests allow that distance 350-600 type variable and was used a lot in the past for mods that spawned zombie elimination quests. These stopped functioning in dedicated servers for A21 but were still accepted in SP. Netcoding didn't want to know. That's a good thing to check with your own quests when the time comes.

The 0-Score mod allows us to select a specific POI name, and/or set a minimum and that maximum distance.

It might help you to visit the Unofficial Modding Discord as this is discussed quite frequently.
