Re: [Freeciv-Dev] (PR#33510) [Patch] Help for first time user
URL: http://bugs.freeciv.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=33510 Hello, Marko Lindqvist wrote on Jan 13, 23:04 (-0800): I noticed that it's not obvious that new user should 'Start Scenario Game' and load 'Tutorial' from there. 'Start New Game' may sound like more logical place to start and it's even first item in the list. Attached patch adds 'Beginner Help' -button to gtk client main page for first time users. Some native speaker should write better helpdata.txt entry for this. If we get good documentation there, I'd like to see this even in S2_1. I'm in favour for yours and suggest the button text as Start Tutorial Game Beginners help can't be clear enough.

Christian However, this button doesn't start a tutorial game - it shows a help text outlining _how_ to start a tutorial game. ~Daniel ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

A main menu button with such a limited use seems like a waste of screen real-estate in a GTK2 main menu that already occupies a lot of vertical space. Alternatively, what about simply renaming the Start Scenario Game - Start Scenario Game/Tutorial? ~Daniel ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
