Lotus' first Quest should show up at Player Level 5
Don't forget to make backups of your profile when adding / removing / updating any mods. Also check out all the different info tabs and read the pinned comment if you wanna report any bugs or issues to me 
Please check the "Installation" tab to see how to install Lotus properly
Features
"Lotus" currently features the following things :
- 250+ Custom Quests
- 900+ Sold / Bartered Items, including a lot of Items that are not available on traders, good ammo and good armor plates
- A Custom Keycard that grants you infinite Labs access for free, unlocked by Quests
- A very cute face
You might not be able to finish all Quests in a single playthrough unless you use Profile Editor to unlock the failed Questlines
Also this is not the final version, I always try to change the balance and improve Lotus, and also add more content or other things, see "Planned Features" Tab for more details
Installation
1. First step is very important, download Virtual's Custom Quest Loader first because the mod itself is NOT included in the file, just the quests and images.
>>> Virtual's Custom Quest Loader <<<
2. Download Lotus
- Unzip the Lotus ".7z" file and make sure to use 7zip, otherwise issues can occur
- There should be a "user" folder
- Drop the "user" folder directly into your SPT folder
Keep in mind that Virtual's Custom Quest Loader should be installed before you install Lotus
3. Have fun and feel free to leave feedback and report Issues
Also I highly recommend using 7Zip, apparently using anything besides it can cause issues with the mod and quests
Known Issues
Certain Questzones not working :
- Can be caused by incorrect installation of Lotus / VCQL, remember to use 7zip and to keep all VCQL files including the .dll in the plugins folder
- Can be caused by using Fika or the heli crash mod ( apparently )
Server showing errors about "CustomItems\ItemGenerator.ts" :
- Turn off "Remove Filters" for the SICC Case, Docs Case, Wallet, WZ Wallet and Keycard Holder in SVM
Weapon Assembly Quests not working properly :
- Kalashnikov Enhanced Modding and SPT Realism Mod can cause some / most of the gunsmith tasks from Lotus to not work properly, at the moment I am unable to do anything about it so you will need to skip these quests using Skipper, if you dont have the two mods mentioned above, check the "Weapon Assembly Task Solutions" tab
Having issues with Labs access :
- Disable anything that removes the access keycard requiremend ( for example in SVM )
"I have too many traders and they are behind my UI and I cant access them" :
- Get this mod Kaeno-TraderScrolling, or enable the "Trading Intermediate Screen" in the vanilla settings
Locked Quests appearing out of nowhere : Fixed in 3.10+
- This does not break anything, to fix this just click "show locked" and turn it off again, should be fixed whenever SPT enforces profile wipes again so I can change all the IDs to avoid profile corruption
Loyalty Levels and Stock acting weird :
- You have Realism installed (or another mod that influences trader stock / loyalty levels), you need to change the load order and make Realism load before Lotus
Modded Weapons and / or Gear not working for quests :
- Tarkov quest structure requires to add the specific gun IDs from modded guns to make them work, and unfortunately I am unable to add all / most modded guns and gear to Lotus quests with other ways because of the amount of A. Lotus quest that involve the use of specific guns, gear, attachments, etc. and B. custom / reskinned attachments, weapons, gear, etc.
Future Plans
- Expanding existing questlines
- Expanding multiple-choice questlines
- Adding more multiple-choice questlines involving more traders
- Adding questlines related to Lightkeeper
- Making custom quest items that spawn in specific locations in raid
- Additional trader with simple custom weapons and secure containers
Recommended Mods
If you want to skip quests use this : >>>> Skipper <<<<
Mods that I can recommend that effect Lotus a lot
They can heavily influence the experience and progress (in a positive way) by making quests be done more comfortably, easier or overall just less annoying and less time consuming
SWAG + Donuts - Dynamic Spawn Waves and Custom Spawn Points by nooky and Props
Overall the best spawn mod in my opinion, especially because its easily configurable and very consistent - It will help you with most of the Lotus quests which require you to kill certain enemies that would either spawn rarely or in small groups
MoreCheckmarks by VIPkiller17
A must-have for everyone who wants to keep track of what items they need for quests, barters, crafts and their hideout - Lotus has a bunch of quests where you need to handover items, some require you to find the items in raid
DeHazardifier - Updated by CJ by Dirtbikercj
( Originally De-Hazardifier by Tyrian )
V.1.2.0 of Lotus has quests related to Lightkeeper and crossing the bridge to the Island, if you want to complete these quests I highly recommend this mod or anything that removes mines/claymores, they can still be completed without removing mines
Pity Loot by bakahashi
Progressively increases the chance to find certain items that are needed for quests and the hideout - Will help you a lot for Lotus when struggling to find certain items
Expanded Task Text (ETT) by Dirtbikercj
Mainly shows more information about quests in the description text - Useful for Lotus to see what quest you get after completing one, since some quests might lead to nothing
UI Fixes by Tyfon
Generally an amazing mod, also has a neat feature that can help with Traders in general by showing what Quest unlocks specific items if you search for them on the flea market
Mods that I can recommend that effect Lotus a bit
They dont have a large impact on Lotus or Lotus quests itself but can be useful for the experience
Questing Bots by DanW
The name speaks for it self, bots can do quests with this mod - It might help you with some kill related quests because you will see PMCs be more active and walk around in important locations more often
Looting Bots by Skwizzy
The name also speaks for it self, bots loot with this mod - You might kill someone with a full bag of loot and might get some items out of it which are required for your quests
Kaeno-TraderScrolling by Kaeno and CWX
Absolute lifesaver when having multiple traders installed
Boss Notifier by Mattdokn
A message pops up in raid when certain bosses spawn - Can help with some Lotus quests which require you to kill bosses or special enemies like cultists or bloodhounds, might save you some time so you dont need to check every corner of a map
Roubles For All by Mattdokn
Makes all trades require roubles instead of dollars and euros - Lotus also has a lot of trades which need dollars and euros so if you want to use roubles only on her, this is for you
Mods that I can recommend that dont effect Lotus
They dont really affect Lotus that much but are really good mods which i can really recommend
Server Value Modifier [SVM] by GhostFenixx
All-In-One mod that lets you change a bunch of stuff, theres really a lot so I highly suggest reading the modpage and checking the mod itself out, if you choose to run this with Lotus
( but avoid turning off the "remove filters" feature for the S I C C case, Docs case , wallet, WZ wallet and keycard holder, also avoid removing the access card requirement for labs )
SAIN 2.0 - Solarint's AI Modifications - Full AI Combat System Replacement by Solarint and DrakiaXYZ
Pretty much the best AI-Behaviour mod in my opinion
Algorithmic Level Progression by DewardianDev, APBS - Acid's Progressive Bot System by acidphantasm or Valens-Progression by Valens
Overall decent progression mods that I can recommend
Raid Overhaul by DJLang
Keeps raids more interesting and refreshing with various events and other very cool features like a custom boss
Gilded Key Storage by Jehree
An amazing mod that lets you put every single key + a bit of extra storage into a single slot
Also I highly recommend
getting LOE (Load Order Editor) by Devraccoon so you can easily change the load order for your mods so they are compatible with each other
A bunch of those mods have dependencies so don't forget the check out their respective modpages where you will also find a lot of details for the mods themselves 
Quest Guide
Lotus has a ton of quests and that means that I cant give a detailed guide for each of them, if you're struggling with finding certain places, I really recommend one of these mods ( or both ) :
>> Dynamic Maps <<
>> Game Panel HUD <<
Lotus has some Quests that tell you to do something while wearing "specified Gear", what is this gear and how do I know what is required?
That is simple, I made sure to drop as much information as possible in the description, you will need to scroll down to see it for some Quests however.
The "specified Gear" for this Quest:
The purpose of this is to give more information since some quests give you multiple options for gear, and to have a shorter objective length,
so it does not look like this abomination ( Test Drive - Part 1 )
There are a lot of Quests where I need to find and handover items, how do I know what actually needs to be "found in raid"?
Very simple again, the objectives always tell you if something needs to be found in raid or not.
If it only tells you to "Obtain xyz" and / or just "Hand over xyz" without mentioning anything about "in raid",
it doesnt need to be FiR.
If a quest needs items found in raid, it usually tells you that in the objective like "Find xyz in raid" and then "Hand over xyz"
There are a few questlines where you need to choose a specific trader for the questline that you want
The 2 big questlines that you can pick are for either Prapor or Peacekeeper / Skier.
You can choose the questline you want after accepting the quest "For The Motherland" from Prapor, after accepting it you should get a quest from Peacekeeper called "Keeping The Peace".
> Completing the quest from Peacekeeper will get you his questline with 16 Quests ( 13 from PK and 3 from Skier )
> Completing the quest from Prapor will get you his questline with 17 Quests
Then there are a few smaller quests, you will get a quest called "New Dealer In Town" from Lotus. Accepting it will give you a quest from Skier, completing the quest for their respective trader will give you another quest for the trader that you picked.
The objectives of the quests that you will get after are identical, with the only difference being the rewards and the trader they are on.
Changing the trader image
Don't like the trader icon or the style?
That's completely fine, you can change it to whatever you like by using certain mods.
I use this mod for all the traders I have for example :
>>> MERKS TRADER IMAGE SWITCHER <<<
Lotus Assort ( v.1.4.2 )
Here are a few examples of what Lotus can sell
Keep in mind that most of these things are locked behind Quests or higher loyalty Levels
Obviously this is not everything that she sells, there is way more interesting stuff you can find on her
Weapon Assembly Task Solutions
Lotus comes with a total of 18 "weapon assembly" tasks split across 2 different questlines, similar to the "Gunsmith" questline from mechanic, most of us are probably used to look at the wiki to easily complete these tasks,
but obviously Lotus doesn't have this, so I put them here :
Incase the tasks don't work, make sure to check if you have any mod that impacts gunsmith quests and/or weapon stats
Also huge thanks to Virtual for his Custom Quest Loader
