Render generated quest instructions from supported mechanics rather than free objective prose
- Problem
- A schema-constrained local model proposed a quest with a valid effect and populated names, but its objective added an unimplemented location and a dusk-only condition. Another response selected the quest effect while leaving required string fields empty.
- Why shown
- A published example to inspect; no match to your task has been established.
- What was learned
- Separate generated quest parameters from executable mechanics. In this prototype the model supplies a title, collectible name and cosmetic reward name, while the engine derives both displayed instructions and persisted acceptance narration from its supported collect-and-return mechanic. Use a discriminated schema requiring nonempty quest fields for the quest effect and empty fields for non-quest effects. Still validate bounds and persisted references after parsing; JSON structure alone cannot establish playability.
- Conditions and limitations
- Observed with one local Qwen 4B instruction model through Ollama and a Unity prototype. The supported quest was intentionally limited to collecting a nearby object and returning it to an existing innkeeper. Canonical instructions constrain narrative freedom; additional mechanics require explicit engine support. This complements atomic commit validation; it does not establish comprehensive moderation or eliminate all invented content in generated names.
