Method Description
AddQuest ( Event eventInfo ) : void

Designed to pick up an event creation event and parse it to create a quest. The event type is specifically the CreateQuest event... and it's getting rather specific in format... so I should document it. Create Quest event has a payload populated by a bunch of objective declaration pairs. Each objective has a key such as "Objective1" or such. The actual information shall be in one string and shall be parsed on this side of the event. The information shall be divided by a semi-colon. The information shall be contained in the following order: * Objective Id (index) * Type (Trigger, Speak, Kill) * Target (most objectives require a target string for the constructor) * Next Objective(s) (list of numeric ids separated by commas) * Objective Title * Objective Text In addition to the objectives, the payload shall contain a meta-information pair. This shall be labelled as QuestInfo. The information in QuestInfo is as follows (divided by semi-colon): * Number of Objectives * Number(s) of the First Objective(s) (list separated by commas) * Quest Title
CompleteQuest ( Event eventInfo ) : void

Removes a quest because it is complete.
QuestManager ( Pantheon gameReference ) : System
Update ( GameTime gameTime, Pantheon gameReference ) : void

Updates any time sensitive events in quests. Most of the quest updating should occur through the notify function. This is only for quests that have a timer built in or maybe to change AI states etc...
