Additional Information

Information on the npcs section, where you define the NPCs that BetonQuest can use/reference, can be found here. Information on the conditions section can be found here.

The interval in which conditions are checked can be configured with the npc_update_interval setting.

Force Visibility Update🔗

You can run the updatevisibility event to manually update the visibility. This is useful for performance optimizations if used when the npc hider interval is set to high values.
