Help with mudding quests

[Arty1]

Hi there, 

 

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask. I am new to modding and trying to create a mod for 7 days to die. 

Basically, the way the mod should work is that you go out and find a load of shards and molds to create keys. I have created the items.xml, loot.xml and localisation.txt and they work fine. But I am struggling with the quest.xml. 

What I want to happen at the end of the tutorial quest the collecting shards quest should start, which has 5 separate quests in it. Every work, but when you move on from one quest to another and open the Quest menu UI, I get this error message on repeat: 

ERR [XUi] Error While updating window group 'quests': EXC index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than size of collection. Parametername: Index

Does anyone know why this is happening?

You might have too many phases.  Try breaking the quests with 12 phases into two parts

That was it! reduced it down to 6 and it was all good!

Take a look at your quest_RedKeyPart.  The Quest reward type says quest_WholeKeyPart but the next quest in your list is <quest id="quest_WholeKey">.  I am assuming that once you complete the quest RedKeyPart, you want to start the quest WholeKey as the next one.
