    I looked fairly thoroughly, and couldn't find a ToEE file listing these, so I hacked a quick dialog test and empirically discovered that:

    qs_unknown == 0
    qs_mentioned == 1
    qs_accepted == 2
    qs_completed == 4
    qs_botched == 6

    Does anyone know if there is an enumeration equalling 3 or 5. or are they just "unused"?

    Also, while I haven't tested, it appears that some negative values are accepted.

    Just an FYI for those who may want to keep quest states in the quest variable and not consume flag or variable resources.

    btw, it's short, so if anyone wants my Jade Empress DLG code denumerating the quest state enums, I can post it easily enough.

    A lot of dialogs use qs states as numbers (e.g game.quests[###].state <= qs_mentioned). I'll go ahead and post the dialog -- I added this to 00379Jade_Empress.dlg. Basically, it allows me to interact with Jade in a non-game fashion and ask her to help me enumerate the qs states as numbers. I plan on writing several more "diagnostic" routines to allow me to use dialogs to explore game values that aren't stored in files [that we can access].

    These probably aren't technically necessary, as most of these are probably known from experimentation, but I like to make my reverse engineering attempts reproducible.

    In response to Jade Empress speech {50}, I added:
    {55}{00379 Enter diagnostic mode}{}{1}{}{13000}{}

    At the bottom of the file I added:

    {13000}{By your command!}{By your command!}{}{}{}{}
    {13001}{Enumerate quest states.} {}{1}{}{13100}{}
    //
    {13100}{Testing qs_unknown.}
    {Testing qs_unknown.}
    {}{}{}{}
    {13101}{qs_unknown == 0}{}{1}
    {qs_unknown == 0} {13110}{}
    {13102}{qs_unknown != 0; unhandled case, aborting test.}{}{1}
    {qs_inknown != 0}{0}{}
    //
    {13110}{Testing qs_mentioned.}
    {Testing qs_mentioned.}
    {}{}{}{}
    {13111}{qs_mentioned == 1}{}{1}
    {qs_mentioned == 1} {13120}{}
    {13112}{qs_mentioned != 1; unhandled case, aborting test.}{}{1}
    {qs_mentioned != 1}{0}{}
    //
    {13120}{Testing qs_accepted.}
    {Testing qs_accepted.}
    {}{}{}{}
    {13121}{qs_accepted == 2}{}{1}
    {qs_accepted == 2} {13130}{}
    {13122}{qs_accepted != 2; unhandled case, aborting test.}{}{1}
    {qs_accepted != 2}{0}{}
    //
