Problem with the "level up"
Hi everyone,

I think understand we can upgrade only 2 times the attributes, the primary skills and the others skills for each "level up".
But, is there normal if for example i haven't upgrade an attribute one or few levels, i can upgrade this attribute more of 2 times ?

And i seen a glitch, when for example we upgrade 2 times one of the others skills, and we use the "undo" option, we can upgrade this same skill 4 times, and more if we use again "undo".
So, with this glitch we can use the 10 points per "level up" for the same "other skill".

My english is bad, i hope what i want mean is understandable ^^

You can spend your points whenever you'd like. So yes, you can upgrade an attribute by more than two points if you keep leveling up without spending the points.

The glitch you mentioned will be fixed in the next update. :)

Glitch is still present...at least when I played it today (2/27/2018)?? For example, the game would not let me level my 'Light Weapon' skill since it was more than double my 'Dexterity' skill. However, I put all my 5 points into Dexterity, then went to the "Abilities" screen and pumped all the skills into Light Weapon (bypassing the restriction). I then returned (without exiting out to move around and play the game, mind you) to the Attributes screen and clicked "Undo." I was able to put the 5 level up points into other things like Strenght, Int, etc. and still retained the "unallowed" ability points in Light Weapon. :(

I'm going to reload my game before the experiment and play as it is legal.

In "abilities" above, I meant "skills."

Zargon, that's a different glitch. Thanks for reporting!

The original glitch let you bypass the "max two additions to a skill per level", while this glitch lets you bypass the "your skill cannot be larger than twice its governing attribute".

That said, I don't think I'll try and fix this. The Quest has received innumerable updates and fixes during it's long life and at this point in time I rather only do critical fixes (for when the game crashes, for example). This is the first I've heard about this particular glitch (although I'm sure some have discovered and used it before ;). This is easily avoidable and doesn't hurt the game's enjoyment the least.

We are just two guys (and I'm the only programmer). We have our hand completely full with The Quest 2 if we were to have any chance to finish it anytime soon. I hope you understand.

Understood. Thanks and can't wait to buy The Quest 2 if it's any fun as The Quest 1!
Side note: have you considered adding a colon (:) after the name of the game along with an additional name? For example, "The Quest 2: Fire & Ice."

I would think this would provide more publicity and...well...make it easier for users to find information on your specific game in google, etc. xD

Because if you put "The Quest," you get so many unrelated topics in a search engine and that is what most people would type.

Regards.

It won't be called "The Quest 2". We have realized quite a while ago that "The Quest" in less than ideal.

We don't know what it will be called yet. We'll try to come up with something catchy. :)
