🔧Quest and User Shop Performance Improvements! Kumos Technical

Optimized the Quest Bar's NPC shop lookup queries, streamlined quest completion processing, and reduced unnecessary logging during user shop purchases. If you've been experiencing slowness when doing quests or buying from user shops, this should help!

I have no idea what happened to that comment or how to edit it! LOL!

The lag to complete a quest is still way too slow. I actually quit my quests last night (on mobile - which is already way too slow due to scrolling) because it was taking too long to complete the quest.

Like Jigglypuff, I'm still getting lag when I complete a quest, but it's 5 seconds every time now instead of 7, and everything else is fast! :)

I tried a quest on Kumos after seeing this announcement. When I finished it, it popped up a survey asking me how I felt about the rewards, which blurred the rest of the page so I couldn't see what rewards I'd gotten, so I had to exit out without completing the survey.

I did not notice much improvement in speed when actually completing quests.

I did my quests on mobile last night, and I've done a handful today to test. Kumos on mobile is a mess, and these are things I noticed that could use improvement. Honestly, just take some time to complete a few Legacy quests on mobile, then take some time to complete a few Kumos quests on mobile. It becomes very obvious what is lacking on Kumos. I can complete the entire Legacy quest process on mobile without scrolling up/down/left/right. No scrolling at all. I have to scroll nearly every single step during Kumos quests on mobile.

When I go to the Kumos quest page on mobile, I have to scroll down just to select the quest giver. I have to scroll down to "Start Quest". I have to scroll down to select the item purchase option. I have to scroll down to buy the item from the user shop (and sometimes I have to scroll to the left/right to click the "buy" button - this is a real mess because it doesn't always cooperate!) The only time I don't have to scroll during the Kumos quest process is when I "Start New Quest" on a quest giver for which I've already completed a quest.

These are big time inconveniences. I can't believe this isn't being talked about more often. Legacy has the perfect process! It's all on the page ready to be clicked. No scrolling, no wasting my time.

Another issue that I've had on both mobile and desktop on Kumos is purchasing from user shops. Check it out on Legacy - buy an item from a user shop on Legacy. I get the following message highlighted in green: "You have purchased 1 Cave Moss(s)." YES!!! I need a confirmation like that on Kumos user shop page. I need to know that my "click" registered and that I purchased an item.

Please let me know if I should put these suggestions in another place, because I think these things are very important to improve the functionality and overall user experience on Kumos!
