Concepts
Groups, boards, assignments, phases, claiming, sharing and passes.
| Word | Means |
|---|---|
| Group | One file under groups/; the file name is its id. A set of quests with one mode, reset and claim rule |
| Board | What a player holds of one group: the quests drawn or started for them |
| Assignment | One quest on a board, with the numbers drawn for it when it was handed out |
| Task | One thing a quest asks for, of one type, with an amount |
| Phase | Where a quest stands: not started, in progress, complete and unclaimed, claimed |
| Cycle | A group that draws a fresh board on every reset |
| Catalogue | A group that offers every quest and lets the player start the ones they want |
| Claim | automatic pays a finished quest at once; manual waits for /quests claim or a click |
| Sharing | solo counts each player's own work; contribution makes one board for the whole server |
| Pass | A ladder of tiers under passes/, fed by finished quests and by raw play |
| Track | The free rewards of a tier, and the premium ones behind a permission |
A span such as "64-128", or a draw such as one-of, is chosen once when the quest is handed out and stored with it,
so a reload never changes the number under a player halfway through. A player whose data has not loaded counts
nothing; nothing waits on the database on a server thread.
