Question Quest -1 on characters from beginning

When a player creates a char, the code puts them on a quest from beginning, so they have to leave quest, and join the quest they wanna do.

Is this the part of the code that sets players to -1 ? .

Code sets -1 for current quest, shouldnt it just be: GET_QUEST(ch); ?

and not: GET_QUEST(ch) == NOTHING ? -1 : GET_QUEST(ch));

This is a bug. If you look in db.c you'll find that it sets GET_QUEST() to -1 when it should be set to NOTHING.

No.

The line that reads:

does the same thing as:

The ? is a ternary operator.

It works like so:

Statement ? Value_If_True : Value_If_False

GET_QUEST(ch) == NOTHING ? -1 : GET_QUEST(ch)

makes it display -1 as %d instead of the value held by GET_QUEST(ch) when GET_QUEST(ch) is equal to NOTHING.
