Introduction scenario First time player Frustration

Post by Ninjato »

A friend got me to buy this game and load the .17.23 experimental version. I was totally confused so he said to run the campaign and it would explain everything. First crafting "task?" says that you CAN craft items in the craft menu, then it just sits there. It does not say TO CRAFT an item or anything else. After a while I craft something and it continues to a point where "unknown key Quest-hint.build" appears, then I get to a point where it says to connect electricity. It does not say what to connect to, or what to use to connect electricity with. It is the first time electricity has been mentioned and I have no idea how to continue so I quit in frustration. If after a delay, and the user does not DO anything maybe a extra hint or gods for-fend actually tell them what they need to do next.

This tutorial is missing a Tutor. It assumes that I already know how to play.
I suppose that if the Quest-hint.build file was there it would work better. If it requires a specific version to run, maybe it should be stated more clearly at the start of the scenario.
