Betonquest: Hover on journal lines

[ghost]

Hi there,
I was looking for the journal_main_page feature, using that to set the titles of any quest the player need to discover etc. That said, I was thinking about adding the hover feature: in this way I could add NPCs coordinates so people won't struggle to find them.

Adding any kind of JSON to journals would require changing how journals are generated - this is kind of a big change. In the meantime why don't you simply use compass targets?

[ghost]

Sure, no big deal. Moreover, if you want, I can ask to one of my java developers to add that feature, being the code open source (as far as I understand)

[Co0sh]

Yeah, it'd be great to have a pull request with this feature ^^

Sorry for my english.

I am one of @Zughy's developer and I noticed add this feature need at most NMS, it mean BetonQuest may be recompiled for every MinecraftServer Version(because of we are working on a very low level)

When I finish I will make a pull request but keep in mind this problem, maybe you can create a custom branch which have this feature.

What do you think??

[Co0sh]

NMS code is a big no in BetonQuest. What about making it a separate add-on?

[gSpera]

Yeah, it is a good idea but how I can edit journal when he is created??
I am looking the doc but I haven't already understood how make it.

Maybe I should edit BetonQuest source cdode and add my add-on as soft depend??
Sorry but I am not very pratical.

Ok maybe I should use journal event, I was reading.

[Co0sh]

Let me think of it for a second...

[gSpera]

I am working on this add-on, for now code in't very good but I am improving it.

This work as add-on but need a little change in your code, I made this update maybe I will push it when I'll finish
