Trader Quest Addendum

Overview

Watch the Launch Trailer for an overview, or the linked videos for each new quest type below.


This mod aims to provide some additional variety to the quests available with the following new quests:
 


There's a horde inbound to one of the trader safehouses - get there and hold them off!
 


Some survivors are in need of medical supplies - craft / buy / loot the supplies they need, then clear out a poi and drop the supplies in the cache for them.
 


There's a courier inbound with supplies to drop off, so the trader needs a POI cleared asap - bonus rewards the faster you go!
 


There's an ... unofficial ... suppply drop inbound coming in overnight, get there and bring it back to the trader - be careful though, it's volatile!

and a couple of variations on the above as well:
 

  • Feed the Famished  (Clear + Food)

Some survivors are starving - help them out with some food!
 

  • Accelerated Annihilation (Infested Speed Clear)

There's a courier inbound with supplies to drop off, so the trader needs an INFESTED POI cleared asap - bonus rewards the faster you go!

Download

The mod can be downloaded from either:




Installation


Unzip and add to Mods folder.

Each quest is in it's own folder, so if there's a quest in there you don't like, you can delete the folder containing that quest, all quests are self-contained, so it will not cause issues with the other quests.

I don't THINK you need to start a new game, you can potentially just add these in and existing games will show them, however please see the warnings below
Should work with EAC turned on!

Warning
This is my first ever mod, so I won't be surprised if there's issues that come from my inexperience.  Things work well for me on singleplayer games, but:

  • Multiplayer is untested, although should work server side if I understand things correctly
  • Quests have not been tested with other mods or overhauls
  • Please don't use this on a playthrough that is irreplaceable!

Known Issues

Aid The Afflicted (and Feed the Famished)

  • After completing the objective of depositing medical items (or food) in the courier satchel, the next trader destination is unmarked - you'll need to remember where the trader is!
  • After completing the quest, viewing previously completed quest in quest menu will spam index out of range errors.  Click on a different quest to stop the errors - likely related to the quest objectives not showing as complete.

Contraband Collection

  • Quitting the game (in singleplayer) during the contraband collection quest while the crate exists can cause an infinite number of console errors when re-loading the game.  A work around exists: quitting and reloading the game again will resolve the issue.

Expedited Eradication

  • Failing the quest by leaving the POI does not remove the buffs 

Terms of Use

  • As I have learned from all the awesome modders that have previously figured things out and release their mods, please feel free to review how I've done things so you can make new types of quests!
  • Please do not redistribute these quests without permission
  • (optional) If you're making any content for YouTube or twitch where you're playing with the mods on, please let me know so I can watch!
Do you have discord or a discord server? Like in this message you said for people to let you know so you can watch if they use the mod. But how are they supposed to let you know if there is no discord server etc?

 
I unfortunately need to report a small bug with the feed the famished quest; it may affect aid the afflicted to.

When taking the quest while in a part the quest is shared correctly.  However, it sends each party member to a different POI.  Interestingly, it sent us both to POIs with the same name, but just in different places, so it may not affect POIs that aren't duplicated on a map, but I expect most POIs will be.  This makes this quest essentially impossible to do multiplayer.  I'd really love to see a fix for this as almost all my questing is multiplayer.

I'm wondering if this has to do with the order of the quest steps (that you have the gathering step before the gotoPOI step), but I'm no expert on quest stuff.
Hey Aesirkin - thanks for the report - happy to say that issue is now fixed!

 
Hi CautiousPancake. I haven't tried your mod yet but it looks really fun. JaWoodle is playing a series with it and he just did a Speed Clear quest. It looks cool and wanted to try it out for myself. Is the download option on 7DaysToDieMods V 1.0 compatible? I didn't know if you've updated it for the public or have you  done special updates for content creators? Thank you for such a cool mod anyway. Cheers! :)

 
CautiousPancake, not only do you have a really awesome username, you are also kind enough to reply and send me a link to your awesome mod. Thank you!!! I can't wait to check it out!
