I was reading an earlier thread about a notepad clone being put inside of ZC, and while I don't think THAT's practical, I have a suggestion that may be.

It's a bug report feature for quests. Say you encounter a bug in a ZC Quest. You press a button and a small text box pops up. Type the nature of the bug, and it will be stored temporarily. When you exit the quest or exit out of zc, a file called <questname>_bugs.txt will be generated. It will include all of the bugs in this format.

<Number of Bug>
Map: <Map you were on when you encountered the bug>
Screen: <Screen you were on when you encountered the bug>
Description: <Description given of bug.>

Having the map and screen for the bug can help the quest developer quickly track it down.

Anyone have anything to add to this suggestion?

I like it, but a screenshot named <quest name>_bug####.<image format> should be made as well, simply for convenience and further description of the bug. You could "circle" the problem area if necessary.

That sounds pretty good to me. That would help bug-testers alot. :)
