How to Gate FTB Quests Behind Game Stages

Why Use Stages for Quests

If you want certain quests to only appear or become completable after a player reaches a milestone, you can hook FTB Quests into the Game Stages mod. FTB XMod Compat handles this link automatically once both mods are present, so you do not need to configure anything in the compat mod itself.

Setting It Up

1. Make sure Game Stages and FTB Quests are both installed. FTB XMod Compat will detect them on load.

2. Create your stage in Game Stages using its normal commands or scripts (for example, defining a stage named after your progression tier).

3. In the FTB Quests quest editor, open the quest you want to gate and look for the stage requirement option. Assign the stage you created to that quest.

4. Grant the stage to a test player and confirm the quest unlocks or becomes completable.

What Happens When a Stage Changes

When a player gains or loses a stage, FTB XMod Compat tells FTB Quests to re-check quest completion. This means a quest that was previously locked can immediately become available, and any quest that depended on that stage updates without the player needing to relog. Use this to build clean progression chains where finishing one mod's content opens the next mod's quests.
