Idea Tutorial

This seems like a great idea! If you have been on a server like Mineplex (not trying to advertise) you may have seen a tutorial sort of thing that actually controls your players and shows you around. If that was integrated on PvP it would be amazing!

 

I see that you voted it needs some tweaking, but how? If its how to seek a good moderator which is your problem (which I agree) there can't exactly be a fix to it.

 

Well I remember that @Lord_Roke once created a few books that he passed out to some players.

 

This would be great for all servers. Some are very easy to understand but others aren't. I logged on to PVP Survival once and had no idea what was going on.

 

I really think this is a good idea! It gets annoying when there are 25 people in the chat saying "I can't find the kit command?! asdkl;fasdjcmakl;". This would be quite a challenge to tackle for the coders, considering Myortvye is already working on something. But when he is done I guess this would be a good thing to add. You have my +1 from me.

 

If we somehow made the wiki that is on the forums into a system in-game, that would be really cool.
I agree, many times people have questions that remain unanswered because they don't know where to go to look for answers or people just ignore them.
This would really help the newcomers, +1.

 

We need a /kit starter: 16 oak wood logs and 32 cooked pork

Oops I meant to vote yes

 

I think that once @Myortvye's coding load wears down (I doubt it will) or other coders have available time, they should work on a global server tutorial project for the hub. Basically, all new players will be warped to the hub and there will be a basic tutorial/ advanced tutorials for all servers. This would be a very helpful addition as most players do not view our forums, and will struggle at basic game mechanics.

 

Some players won't need a tutorial. The ones that do should have /tutorial

 

Ok @ZapCrusher. I like this idea but I think that it would be very hard to accomplish. It would not only take a large amount of time to program, but it would also be quite a long time to go through as a player. For example, if you focus on one aspect of pvp survival, such as tracking, it would take an extremely long time to go through the 3 tracker types and how to use them. I think that if there was some way to give a player a book with instructions, instead of a tutorial "land" this could be much easier. That's just my opinion though.

I guess I should have voted needs tweaks. My bad.

 

Getting a book is pretty boring from my perspective. A good tutorial would be one that controls the player's screen and guides them through the server. And maybe there can be courses that you choose to learn like tracking, potions, raiding, pvping, etc. And there should be a option where you can leave the tutorial any time. Even if it takes long to program, doesn't everything take long?

Here is a bukkit plugin with the tutorial.

 

True. I guess I just thought it would be more complicated.

 

Orrrr.... put a sign up at spawn that says "google it". Problem solved. World hunger cured.

 

A really good idea. For a lot of our game modes such as WarZ and War, we just randomly throw player in with out giving them help. This way, we can offer them a fun and interactive tutorial to help them get started down the right path.
