Some missing escort quests

[Schmoozerd]

If somebody is interested, escort quests are usually relatively easy to implement. Here is a list of some that might be missing:

http://www.wowhead.com/quest=5821 http://www.wowhead.com/quest=5943 http://www.wowhead.com/quest=11930 http://www.wowhead.com/quest=25393 http://www.wowhead.com/quest=25445

I found some information on 10310 here: https://bitbucket.org/oregon/oregoncore/commits/687937412d693a41d1a95d791f03bd4f369b7fff

I don't know the new table name mapping for script_waypoint.

But if somebody wants to take a look it might offer a starting point. I'm still new to the C++ side of things.

@zharvek if you can confirm that the oregon core script is correct and has all the required details I think we can port this to SD2 pretty easy.

PS. I can see that the list is getting smaller. I trust that we can manage to implement all of them in a reasonable amount of time. :+1:

This list might also proof usefull in catching up to more missing: http://wowpedia.org/Category:Escort_quests

@zharvek I think this patch should do the job: http://paste2.org/npUVtKUN but there are a couple of details which I'm not happy with. Such as the fire gameobjects and spells.

Thanks, I'm on a business trip at the moment but when I return I'll give this a shot and let you know how it turns out. I'm not exactly sure how this should run on live though. Might need a real test to verify it really is correct.

I think the escort quests 5821 and 5943 should be handled together. I did them once or twice loooong ago and I had to do a bit of research about them.

They take place in Desolace, several NPCs (two gobelins and a kodo caravan) follow a waypoint path back and forth across Desolace. At each end of the waypoint path, they wait for 10 min. Then they start moving again along the path.

• When they move from south to north: they stop right before Mannoroc Covent, announce they are waiting someone to escort them (they do wait for 4 min), then move through the covent and go on until the end of the path.
• When they move from north to south: they stop north of Kolkar Village also for 4 minutes (still announcing), then go on along the road until the other end

The waypoint path should already be in DB and I can gather more elements later.

Poke @Rog360, @grz3s, @Neatelves: Would you be able to provide the correct spawn locations for NPC http://www.wowhead.com/npc=23383 used for quest 11085? There are 3 locations in which this one appears, and it seems to be random.

So far I have

DELETE FROM creature WHERE id IN (23383);
INSERT INTO creature (id,map,spawnMask,phaseMask,modelid,equipment_id,position_x,position_y,position_z,orientation,spawntimesecs,spawndist,currentwaypoint,curhealth,curmana,DeathState,MovementType) VALUES
(23383, 530, 1, 1, 0, 0, -4106.64, 3029.76, 344.877, 0.820305, 60, 0, 0, 6986, 0, 0, 0),
(23383, 530, 1, 1, 0, 0, -3712.91, 3802.86, 302.928, 1.580229, 60, 0, 0, 6986, 0, 0, 0), -- guesswork!
(23383, 530, 1, 1, 0, 0, -3655.85, 3380.96, 312.994, 0.146884, 60, 0, 0, 6986, 0, 0, 0); -- guesswork!

but only the first spawn from PSMDB is correct. The other 2 are guessed based on vids and comments.

Also GO 185952 is linked to this npc, because he needs to be placed inside a cage.

Thanks

Sorry xfurry, I haven't any official data on this npc... :(

hi... got some info about your first quest: http://www.wowhead.com/quest=2845 So... quest is simmilar to one in Darkshore.... (almost identical).. The Sleeper Has Awakened - q.5321 ... npc will follow u. Just small info: she does random texts ... when she walks away from u: Are we taking the scenic route? Oh, what a beautiful flower over there... Are you sure this is the right way? Maybe we should go this way instead... Hmmm, I wonder what's over this way?"

And when after using item she comes back to us also we have random texts from her: This is quite an adventure! Oh, I wandered off again. I'm sorry. The bell again, such a sweet sound.

BTW pls don't forget to add " %s begins to Wander off." <-- when she start walk away

I could put here all details about it ..but vid ..will be better i think ;) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TS0gUSC66AU <--- from 2:56 whole q.

are there more escortquests missing? i think we could check this list: http://www.wowwiki.com/Category:Escort_quests :D

[xfurry]

are there more escortquests missing?

I don't think so. Only a bunch of them are left, mostly from 3.x or very old and complicated.

[xfurry]

Only 3 quests left as far as I know. Feel free to amend the list if required.

The first two are related and already discussed in #102 I intend to script them both in a near future.

[xfurry]

Thanks @cala that would help a lot. For the third one, I think I can ask @Grz3s
