(*) This feature is not enabled in default settings - please read details below on how to enable and use it.
(**) Quest Journal left shift + right click is not active and no longer needed in the game v2.



There are two convenient ways to toggle untrack/track back:

  • with a CET key.
  • with a left shift + right mouse button click if enabled in the mod's CET window,

The shift right click toggle works in normal play mode, in the Quest Journal (game versions prior to v2) and in the World Map menu.
The hotkey toggle works anywhere and any time.

The left shift + right click toggle is designed for those who don't like CET keys or struggle to find a convenient key on a keyboard already packed with actions.
Both options work in parallel - you can use any combination of the two.

Please note that the left shift + right click while playing toggle shares the shift key that the game uses to toggle Sprint.
While this mod is designed to toggle on it only a long shift press to prevent conflicts, some users may still find it interfering with their play style.
Therefore this option is NOT enabled in default settings.
If you would like to use it in this specific game mode toggle, please visit the mod's CET window to enable it.

New: The Main Quest re-tracking preventer is a feature that aims to prevent the game from automatically re-tracking to the current main quest active objective if you have manually untracked it previously.
This feature is only available in the game v2.+.
Please note that this feature in not enabled in default settings - you'd need to visit the mod CET window to enable it.

New: The Fixers' Reward quests autotracking preventer is a feature that aims to prevent the game from automatically switching tracking to incoming Fixer Reward quests while in a normal gameplay states (e.g. not in menus).
This feature is only available in the game v2.+.
Please note that this feature is not enabled in default settings - you'd need to visit the mod CET window to enable it.


What is the quest untrack and track back/undo untrack:

The term 'untrack' means that the game's quest tracker guidance will no longer follow any quest.
When no quest is being tracked, it clears all the associated information and quest navigation guidance from various parts of the game interface, including:

- The world display
- The Minimap
- The screen below the Minimap
- The world Map
- The quest list in the Quest Journal
- The opened quest details in the Quest Journal
- The saved games info on the load/save menus (an exclusive feature of this mod).

No any leftovers in effect.
 
The track back/undo quest untrack means you can restore the previously untracked quest tracker guidance if it's still available (e.g. the quest is not completed in the meantime).
If it's not possible to restore the last tracked quest, it will default to the main quest (just like the game would do).
And, of course, you can always pick any quest at any time, regardless of the quest tracker's state.


What it does not do:

- it does not prevent the game to update the untracked quests automatically when needed or switch quests when needed. In the other words you won't lose any key change,
- it does not manage the "blue" quests so it's safe to use it to untrack a main or a side/contract quest while still following an NCPD hustle quest selected on the map for example,


How to use it:

The mod requires the CET: Cyber Engine Tweaks scripting platform (external site link)
Install the mod, set up a CET key in the CET Bindings window or enable left shift + right click in the mod's window.
Then use it to untrack a quest.
Do it again to track it back.
You can also untrack a quest in the Map menu by left-shift + right clicking on the tracked objective marker.


Limitations:

  • in the game v2, in the Quest Journal, right clicks are not supported as the menu has been redesigned.
    You can use the CET key instead along the new game's feature to untrack a quest.


Compatibility info:

Supported versions:

Game v1.6 through 2.1+ with corresponding CET versions.
Not tested against earlier versions.
REDmod indifferent.
CET 1.29.0 is not supported due to numerous issues in this version.
CET 1.30.0 is not supported due to issues in this version.


The mod depends on the game code framework and the CET code framework.
Mods modifying the game framework code used or changing the expected game behavior may affect this mod functionality.


Issue reporting:

In case of issues, please make sure to update the mod and its requirements to the latest supported versions first.
DO NOT assume you already have the latest versions installed - verify by checking the mod pages.

If you still experience some unexpected mod functionality on the supported game and CET versions please first verify it without any other mod before reporting.
The mods types that may affect this one functionality typically are (but not limited to):
  • CET scripting platform disabled due to versions mismatch or misconfiguration,
  • the redscript mods,
  • the CET mods,
  • the REDmod mods modifying game scripts or tweaks.

Please note 99% of issues come from incompatible mods, corrupted data in game saves, unhealthy game install base or corrupted mod install.
I reserve the remaining 1% for unknown yet mod bugs.

Credits:

psiberx for all the CET hints, tips and tricks and unlimited coding support.
DBK01 for request that inspired me to add audio feedback sounds selection option so you can choose sounds.
The mod would not exist without the Cyber Engine Tweaks so the CET development team deserves a credit too.
