Dev Build - Task System v2 + Fixes
Added 2024-05-05 21:27:20 +0000 UTCHi!
Here's the updated dev build which fixes two task related bugs:
Completed task could be unlocked multiple times (breaks leveling)
Delivering same compatible tasks items broke the highlight
The last dev build had also major issues with the item actions, this build fixes those as well.

What's new?
- Task system
- Trader levels
- Trader tax (previously know as Profit margin)
- Extended save system (Trader file)
Nice to know (Tasks)
This task system is designed to be as dynamic as possible, so it can be extended in multiple ways. In the near future, tasks are going to be one of the main ways to unlock certain elements like, unique shelters, certain map areas / rooms and lore related items.
This development build includes 4 trader levels and each of those has certain number of tasks. These tasks are not "final tasks", meaning they are for testing purposes.
Once you unlock a new trader level, you get access to new tasks and trader tax decreases which gives you better priced bartering items from the trader supply.
All unlocked levels and completed tasks are saved dynamically.

Here's my task idea list: 1. Get a large parcel from trader and haul it to the border. When you see two men approaching from the other side hold it up and step slowly into their view. They will take that parcel and give you something in return. Bring it back to trader. 2. Get a jerry can and a ciphon hose from trader and go fill it with diesel fuel still left in one randomized vehicle near border station. After you filled it up haul it back to the trader. Return journey is slow while the canister is heavy and you have only one hand so it's pistol only unless you drop it. 3. Get to the border to apprehend a small group of hostiles crossing over during the night. Bring their weapons and ammo back to the trader. 4. Get a showel, a sled and a map location. Proceed to there, dig a hole and pull up an old crate of KP/31s and M27s. Load the crate on the sled and pull it back to trader. It takes both hands so you need to stop pulling if a firefight breaks out. 5. Get a socket driver and a screwdriver, get over the border and loot as many distrubutors and spark plugs from military vehicles as you can. Reward according to parts looted. 6. Border patrol could sell confiscated items under the counter but only in a certain place. Give them a pair of military hand radios and you can have as much vodka you have empty slots in your inventory. 7. Get a visual description of a sea container, get to harbour and locate it. Get the package from inside of it and bring it back to trader. 8. Go to the tent camp site, eliminate hostiles occupying it and bring back documents they have on their person. 9. Get to Vostok side, locate a tank that has turret-mounted MG and loot it's box of AP ammo. Bring it back to trader. 10. Get two grenades, go over to the other side, find the helipad, wait for the night and a good moment, sneak up to the heli unnoticed and blow up it's cockpit. 11. Loot the bodies for combat boots sized 44. Not everyone has those. 12. Loot the vehicles and storage rooms for socket sets, drill bit sets, welding sticks, electric drills etc and get them to the Fabricator 13. Get ammo from Doctor and go barter those for vodka and IFAKs with border guards. 14. Loot the border guard towers for binos NVGs and SVDs

2024-05-07 21:17:32 +0000 UTCAfter playing with this for a little bit I think the only suggestion I could make is that when you start the delivery, it would help if the requested items are highlighted in your inventory just to make them easier to find
