WHAT SERVER OWNERS SAY🔗

By rating, BetonQuest is in the top 10 out of 57.000 Spigot plugins.
Sometimes, user reviews describe a plugin better than the author can:

Spigot Reviews

EsronAzfalothMaverick2020Caleb_Britannia

Quick Facts:

 * Amazing system for Quests, no matter if they are simple or complex.
 * Easy to make Daily/repeatable quests.
 * Great Discord community and staff support.
 * Can be used to replace every GUI plugin we've had before.
 * Can be used for a ton of stuff other than quests if you learn the systems.



The story: I've worked with Beton for a year now, and probably (guessing) worked
with it for 500 hours. We've used it on both a survival and a MMORPG server.

I have 0 complaints. It's well thought through and getting better by the day.
The day BetonQuest 2.0 (you can do like me and use the dev version) comes out,
will be a beautiful day for all server owners.

/Fred, Esron, Znitsarn.

This is a brilliant plugin. It is so much more than just a plugin for quests. It
is a set of tools that allow you to do so many things. I feel like this is a
must have for any server that wants to add functionality to citizens NPCs even
without using it for making quests. The possibilities are endless. You can have
very immersive complex conversations that can be used to explain server
functions, create shops, teleport players, make portals etc. [...]

The possibilities are limited only by what you can think of doing. I started out
looking for a quest plugin and after using this, I wished I had used it before
just for the sake of the immersion it adds. [...]

This is the most comprehensive quest plugin I have seen. I am still amazed this
is free. The devs are extremely active, continue to make new things available,
and have a clear roadmap to offering even more features. I am in awe of their
skills and dedication.

I am truly blown away by the support team. They are the absolute best. They
answer things quickly and thoroughly. I really cannot say enough good things
about this quest plugin!

This is actually my second review after 2 years which goes to show the
complexity and skill behind this plugin. Many reviews have stated many times how
powerful, complex and overall useful this plugin is. Comparing it to other quest
plugins is simply not good because its so powerful I would put it on the level
on a minor scripting language. The versatility and scale of this plugin has seen
it develop to the backend of some powerful RPG servers! [...]

This is all taken however apart from the most important and influential part of
the plugin and that is the developers. I have seen an entire range of developers
come and go from the OG Co0sh to the current team and all of them have given it
110%. From releasing patches on the same day bugs have been reported to spending
hours and hours in calls with users it is impossible not to realise how much the
developers care about the plugin and all its users. Their care and hundreds of
hours of dedication are shown in this insanely powerful and (mostly) bug free
quest plugin. Anyone who aspires to give their players a proper RPG experience
needs to check this plugin out. Quest on!!

Major Difference

BetonQuest is not only a quest plugin. All features and systems work outside of
quests too. This makes it possible to write scripts that go far beyond what
other quest plugins can do. This strength is amplified by a large number of
integrations for other plugins.

For many users, BetonQuest does not only power quests but also works as their
servers' backbone that links all kinds of plugins together. Most competitors are
"just" quest plugins and therefore limited to simple tasks. That's why
BetonQuest skills are worth twice as much since you are not limited to writing
quests!

BETONQUEST VS. SCRIPT PLUGINS🔗

While BetonQuest can be used for scripting, it stays a quest plugin. It's a
compromise, the best of both worlds. Plugins with a full focus on scripting -
such as Denizen and Skript are suited better in certain scenarios. Many users
even use these alongside BetonQuest as there is integration for such scripting
plugins.





FEATURES🔗


BEAUTIFUL MULTI-PATH CONVERSATIONS🔗

Sorry, your browser doesn't support embedded videos.

Players can have immersive conversation with NPC's by utilizing BetonQuests
Multi-Path-Conversation System. Questers can freely define multi-path stories,
narrated with NPC conversations, and with multiple endings that affect a
player's gameplay. Questers can also choose between five different styles to
display their conversations.


ENDLESS INTEGRATIONS🔗

BetonQuest supports 36 other plugins, ranging from standard plugins like
WorldGuard/WorldEdit and Citizens to more advanced ones such as EffectLib. It
also offers support for other quest plugins, so you can just keep your old
quests and create further additions to your quest lines based upon the progress
in your old plugin. If just Beton isn't enough you can always just hook into
Skript or Denizen too.

See the full list of integrations here.


CUSTOM NOTIFICATION SYSTEM🔗

Sorry, your browser doesn't support embedded videos.

 * Questers can make use of BetonQuests notifyIO system that provides access to
   all of Minecraft's GUI elements to display notifications.

 * Provide NPC conversations in any language. Each player can set his own
   language which means that - if translated - all conversations will be in the
   players native language.

 * You can give players information about where they are in a quest using the
   "Journal". The Journal is a book in which you can write content based on the
   players actions.


PLAYER, NPC AND HOLOGRAM HIDER🔗

Sorry, your browser doesn't support embedded videos.

BetonQuest allows you to hide players from each other based on conditions. This
can be used to create story-regions where players are always alone.
It's also possible to hide entire Citizens NPC's and
DecentHolograms/HolographicDisplays holograms.


TRAINING INCLUDED🔗

This website provides in-depth learning material for your staff which teaches
them all BetonQuest basics. It also has guides on related topics such as the
setup of a local test server, so your main server's stability will not be
threatened by staff learning / developing quests.

 2. Limited to Quest related context. ↩

 3. There are conversations, but they are not multi-path. ↩

 4. Only particles above NPCs and a limited configuration. ↩

 5. Integration from the BetonQuest side. ↩

 6. BetonQuest's scripting is too complex for the limited possibilities of
    in-game editing. There are plans for a web editor. ↩
