HUD Element

The current active quests in the journal are displayed in the Duty List HUD Element. They will appear in the order they are either accepted or chosen to be displayed by the player. The number of maximum displayed quests can be adjusted in the HUD settings.

In the journal each quest have a checkbox next to it. With these the player can control whether a quest is displayed in the duty list or not, or if it should appear on top of the list. With no checkboxes marked, the duty that has been accepted last appears on top.

If the checkbox is filled out, the quest is marked as priority and is moved in top of the list. If the checkbox is marked red, the quest is not shown in the duty list at all.
