Active Tasks

The Active Tasks panel is a panel on the right-side of the screen that acts as the main hub of interaction for chunk tasks and some other utilities. It consists of multiple tabs, as well as a few extra buttons below the tabs.

Active Chunk Tasks

The Active Chunk Tasks tab is the first tab in the panel, and shows a list of active chunk tasks given the current state of the map. In the header of the tab, it will show the number of tasks checked-off vs total active tasks as a fraction (or a percentage if the respective setting is turned on). If the setting to hide checked-off tasks is turned on, there will also be an eye icon in the tab header that can be clicked to toggle to show checked-off tasks or not.

In the body of the tab, all active chunk tasks are listed, each falling under one of five headers:

  • Skill Tasks - Up to one task per in-game skill, chosen as the highest level task for that skill based on the map's chunk rules and unlocked chunks
  • BiS Tasks (Best in Slot) - Up to one task per equipment slot per style, chosen as the strongest piece of equipment accessible within the unlocked chunks. For standard BiS gear, this favors offensive stats over defensive ones, as long as there is no negative attack bonuses for the specific style. Other BiS task add-ons, added in Chunk Rules, may be defined differently.
  • Quest Tasks - Tasks for each quest that is partially or fully completable within the unlocked chunks, unless partial quests are hidden via that chunk rule. Partial steps are based on a custom numbering and lettering system, and are not the same steps as listed on either the OSRS Wiki page or the Quest Helper plugin.
  • Diary Tasks - Tasks for each diary step that is completable within the unlocked chunks, unless partial diaries are hidden via that chunk rule. By default, only the lowest tier diary tasks are required, until that tier is completed (only Easy tasks are required until it's fully done, then only Medium tasks are required, etc.), unless the specific chunk rule is turned on to require all tiers at once. Combat Achievement tasks are also listed here, if required via the chunk rule.
  • Other Tasks - All other tasks that don't fit into other categories are listed here. All of these tasks are from optional chunk rules being turned on, like Collection Log tasks, Kill X tasks, All Drops tasks, and more. Each task header can also be clicked to collapse the header and hide all tasks within it temporarily.

Each task has a respective checkbox that can be clicked to mark the task as "done". On Quest and Diary tasks that give xp rewards, the Xp Reward window will also pop up when the task is checked-off.

Each task also has a sliders icon button to the right of it, which can be clicked to open a dropdown with options for that task:

  • Backlog - Moves the task to the Backlog tab, making it no longer an active task. Used when you don't want to do a task for whatever reason, or if a task is being shown incorrectly (please submit a Bug Report if you believe this should be fixed, too!)
  • Backlog Options - Opens the Backlog Options window, which allows leaving a note attached to a backlogged task, or backlogging a specific component of the task instead of the task itself.
  • Alternatives - Opens the Alternative Tasks window, which shows equivalent tasks that can be done in substitution of the chosen task instead. This option won't show if there are no alternative options for a given task. If a task does have alternative options, this option will show in the dropdown with a star next to it, as well as a star being displayed on the slider icon itself.
  • Details - Opens the Task Details window, which shows details about the task and where access to any items/monsters/npcs needed for the task can be found within unlocked chunks. The Task Details window can also be opened by clicking the body of the task directly.
