caqs

QuestsAlias: complete all quest stages

Complete every stage of every quest in the game.

Examples

Here is an example of how to use caqs.

Completes every quest stage in the game (testing only).

Overview

Forces all stages of all quests to complete at once, effectively finishing the entire game's questline. This is an extreme developer command that will almost certainly break a normal save by triggering events out of order. Only use it on a throwaway character for testing. It is not something to run on a playthrough you care about.
