I think people will want to be able to go backwards in the tutorial to remind themselves of things (or maybe I clicked twice by accident; whoops!). |
|
|
Thinking about this... do you think there are some conditions where going back might be a one-way trip and you get forever trapped? I wonder if maybe using the escape menu to show older tutorial steps instead might be a better way of handling this? Let me start out trying that and we'll see. |

This works really well, I think. :) * When you're in a tutorial, a bunch of the stuff in the escape menu (factions list, etc) doesn't show up anymore. ** Now in place of those things, it shows a list of all your previously-completed tutorial steps and their text, along with the text of the current one you're working on. Thanks! |

Agreed, I like it! I mostly wanted a player to be able to go back and say "Oh right that's how I pan the screen" if they forgot or something |
|
|
I figured that was your goal -- and boy does it make things feel nicer, I must say. Nice one! |

Note that we still need to get a Journal at some point ;-) The simplest would be "Put an extra button someplace that says 'Open Journal'". When pressed the button opens a big scrollable text area. Then we use an approach similar to the AIP history or to this tutorial history. We define a bunch of XML entries for "possible journal things", which would be presented like the tutorial popups (you have to click to clear them). Then we track the names of the journal entries the player has seen as well as the times at which the player has seen them. When the player presses "Open Journal" it then plays back the journal entries in reverse time order. We'd want some minor text interpolation (for things like planet names), but I think that's already on your list of things. |
