I have made a profile, but it keeps jumping over a quest. Pack your bags. see attached profile, It pickup the quest and then skips all the objectives.
HB does does not write any errors, in log or debug.

Hi,
Moujoohoo,
Corny was spot on with his reply.
Lines 156-172 of your profile need to be moved outside the
QuestOrder. These are called "quest overrides", and their format needs to look like described here:
[wiki]Honorbuddy Profile Tag: Quest[/wiki]
Quest overrides tell Honorbuddy *what* to do for an objective (e.g., go here, kill X mobs of this type). Most profile writers include Quest overrides above the QuestOrder section, but this is just a common convention.
After you move these elements into quest overrides, you need to tell Honorbuddy *when* to do these overrides in your quest order. These should just be a single line that looks like what is described here:
[wiki]Honorbuddy Profile Tag: Objective[/wiki]

but it's only the second last that keeps bugging: Pack Your Bags
I understand your position, but you have to look at it like this...
If you fail to do something the way Honorbuddy wants to see it, then you really can't predict how Honorbuddy will fail. It may get part of it right, or none of it, or you could luck out and it do all of it. Basically, you need to be very stringent in providing things the way Honorbuddy wants to see them. If you don't, it may work for your initial testing, but fail when others try to use it (with different classes/starting state/races/etc).
In short, "but it did the other one" is not a valid argument.
One other piece of advice--take it or leave. Snag copy of
Notepad++. It will help you a lot--including your indenting problem. As your profile gets bigger, it will be important to keep it properly indented for debugging purposes, and when discussing it with your fellow profile writers to help with problems.
cheers and good luck with it,
