Sorry for the confusion, I did not see Tinkerer's post or I would've made things clearer.
Tinkerer had slightly outdated information due to an old line that was still present on the wiki.
On adventures and add-ons Both adventure and add-on support story scripting, the difference is this:
- Adventure: Like our main campaign, an adventure is the main story you'll be playing. It is selected in the main menu's Story menu (only shows when you have multiple adventures available).
Here's how it looks. You'll be picking an adventure if you want to make your personal campaign from scratch. Nice little showcases are these already published adventures:
The Noice Crypt and
Divinityball.
- Add-on: An add-on is something you enable on top of a campaign. It can be toggled on/off and just adds its content to the adventure. You'll want to use an add-on when adding or changing items/skills/quests/... both general as well as story changes are allowed.
On invalid files There will indeed be invalid or even more likely additional files in your folder. Steam generally doesn't throw files away, even when verifying. You'd have to completely remove everything from your folder. This is not limited to your Documents, but also the installation folder in Program Files and in the steam folder where the data is located.
On story files Are you still able to modify them? We are aware of some false warnings and are investigating.
On perpetual goals That would be something @Tinkerer will be able to help you with far better than I'd ever could
