Improvements to the mission systems

• New quest function, we can now use quests to consume items. This means for example that you could bring materials that you have collected, give them to an npc and get something else back.
• New quest giver indicators, you will now be able to see if a quest giver has a quest available or if you have finished a quest and can talk to him to finish it by looking at the icon above its head ! ?.

Improvements to creatures and their AI

The creatures will now be able to alternate between different types of attacks each with their own set parameters and animations/sounds/particles.

The monsters will also have the ability to do AOE attacks that strike all players within a specific radius. These attacks can deal either regular damage or damage based on a percentage of the avatars current HP.

Coming later:

1. Damage over time effects togeather with AOE application of the same.
2. Creatures using mindforce.
3. Creatures using projectiles that can be avoided.
