How it works, step by step
- 1
Quest schema module: objectives with type/target/count and reward tables.
- 2
ProgressService exposes Report(event, target, amount) — kills, collections, talks all funnel here.
- 3
Active quests live on the player profile; objective deltas increment atomically.
- 4
Completion validates all objectives, grants rewards once (completion flag), notifies.
- 5
Quest log UI renders from profile state; tracker pins nearest-incomplete objective.
Concepts you'll use
- Event-report aggregation
- Atomic objective deltas
- Once-only reward guards
Mistakes that cost you players
- Systems updating quest counters directly bypass validation and double-count on races.
- Rewards granted before the completion flag flips can be farmed via relog timing.
