In Loquiz you can create tasks with location and tasks without location. To play an outdoor game, you need to attach a location to the tasks but you can also create games (Quiz, Clue) using tasks without location. Tasks’ pins and radiuses are customizable.
There are two types of tasks in Loquiz:
1. General tasks – this kind of task can be with location or without location. Location is set while creating an outdoor game (Rogain, Strategy, Scavenger, Match). One task can have different locations in different games.
General task example:
Shoot a photo of your team where nobody touches the ground.
2. Location-specific (location based) tasks – this kind of task can have one permanent location and it only makes sense when asked in a particular location. You can use this kind of task in different games, but it always have the same location. Location is assigned while creating a task.
Location-specific task example:
Nearby is a statue. Shoot a photo of your team and a statue.
You can use general and location-specific tasks in all game types.
Setting location for the task
To create a location-specific task, you need to set the location while creating a task on “Location” tab. Choose “location-specific task”.
You can set location by:
a) typing in an address (use the search icon on the map);
b) clicking on a map to point to the right place;
c) pasting in exact coordinates in degrees (dd,dddddd);
After you have set the location using any of these means you can move the task around on the map.
Changing location
In case you need to change the location of general task just open a game where you used it. Change the location under “Location” tab. NB! Location will be changed only in this game and not in other games where this task was used.
If you need to change the location of location-specific task, then you need to open the task for editing. Location will be changed in all the games where this task is present.
In case you delete location from a task that was location specific and was added into games the task in games will preserve their locations but are now considered NOT location specific (i.e. Location is set by the game).You can not make a general task that has been added to games location specific as this would overwrite or add the location to all the games where the task is present.
