JS functions

The JS object is how Quest exposes the user interface. What this means is that we can use the JS object to call JavaScript functions that will modify what the player sees. The basic format is to append the JavaScript function name with a dot, so to call addText (the JavaScript function Quest uses to show text on the screen), use something like this:

JS.addText("You are in a deep hole.")

Below is an alphabetic list of the more commonly used functions. If you add your own JavaScript functions, they too can be accessed through the JS object.

• addScript
• addText
• colourBlend
• eval
• scrollToEnd
• setCommands
• setCss
• setCustomStatus
• setInterfaceString
• setPanes
• showGrid
• showPopup
• uiShow/uiHide
• updateLocation

• whereAmI
