    EDIT: I didn't realize you were saying "visitors" with an "s" wasn't working at all. Added as issue #71399

    How it's supposed to work: Technically, the keyword is "visitor*" which displays as "visitor" but accepts any version of "visitor" you type. That "*" is a wildcard that lets you add anything you want to the end of the keyword. You can say any variation of "visitor" including made-up versions like "visitoriddfsfslkhunkj."

    @Mikal Raine , I was looking at your screenshots. When you said "visitors" you got a conversation choice with three options. This is common in a lot of quests I create. The three choices are listed below.
    1. "Verity asks you greet visitors."
    2. "Your fans swarm the city entrances!"
    3. "They're all here for you?"
    Choice number 1 is a "truthful" response which advances the quest, number 2 is a "stretch the truth" response which also advances the quest, and number 3 is a "neutral" response which allows you to postpone advancing the quest by avoiding responses 1 or 2. The third option being neutral (and not one that advances a quest) is extremely common in our conversation choice responses. In your screenshot, I can see you used the keyword "visitors" (with an S) which is immediately followed by her neutral response, "Well, perhaps they're not ALL here for me...."

    So now I have a question: Did you actually choose that "They're all here for you?" response? If you did, then it's correct that the quest didn't advance. If you didn't chose it and it somehow "chose itself," then that's a new problem that I'm not sure how to fix yet. Let me know the answer when you get a chance.

    @Sannio Sorry about the confusion. The first screenshot is me scrolling up to show the response "Avatar" gave me when I typed 'Visitors' so the options you see in that screenshot are from when I typed 'Visitor' and finally got the quest to move forward.

    Also, I had not chosen any of those responses yet because I kept typing "Visitors" and it was just giving the Neutral response with no other options or keywords.
