[Edit: read no further! all has been resolved; what I describe below is not a bug, and the walking quests are working consistently]
This may be old news to many, but I haven't seen this resolution on the forum, so thought I'd post it to be safe (and apologies if I'm just duplicating things).
I know many people have asked about lightfoot stopping the ticker for the walking quests. On the other hand, I (along with others I believe) have reported that lightfoot has no affect on the walking quests.
Having had a couple of large walking quests lately (and doing them when there hasn't been lots of lag generating "can't move more than one square" messages), I've realised that it depends on how you do the walking.
If you do the walking with keyboard strokes, then every tile visited counts one towards the quest, regardless of whether ligthfoot fires or not. On the other hand, if you click on the map and let the map do the walking for you, then tiles traversed count to the walking quest ONLY if they also use up stam (i.e. ONLY if lightfoot does NOT fire).
Presumably this inconsistency is not intended.
[PS I did check, and this is not FSH related: it persists even when FSH is switched off.]
