Ok I tried to go through this tutorial as a noobie who knew absolutely nothing about the game and I wrote down all my experiences. here's how it whent.
Zoom without scroll wheel
In tutorial 1:
Tell them they can interrupt a skill without losing anything.
Tell them about the ôskills that fit within queueÆs timeframeö button, the way it goes they probably donÆt realise they can put a long skill at the end of the skill que as it hides any long skills
Could help to tell them to hit apply but thereÆs a warning catcher for this already
Not sure about this but ôTo begin your certification course, start a conversation with me through the Agents tab of the station menu. This tab is highlighted now.ö The agents tab was not highlighted for me, I had station window minimized. Should also highlight aura as ppl might not realise it was her talking.
I have a lot of windows open, I donÆt know if I still need them open or I can close them.
ôà, walk down the hallway of your captain's quarters to the ship hangar balcony.ö ThereÆs a sort of hallway here that just leads into darkness and a wall, always good to point me there.
I also noticed if IÆm selected in a window or chat channel my movement doesnÆt work.
You say you can undock by pressing the button on the railing, first this button doesnÆt work second you need to highlight it or something.
WOOHOO IÆM FLYING
Camera stuff is good, though you should tell them you can focus the camera around other objects by rclicking -> lookat
That gate that I warp to IÆm already inside itÆs bubble of size, so when you tell me to accelerate towards it I actually move away to get to perimeter, also havnÆt told me about double click to move. Also noticed that while I warped here you never emphasized the importance of warping and how it gets you everywhere.
The tutorials end kind of abruptly after telling me about approaching and navigation, you didnÆt tell me how to get the token out of the can or what a can is or how to get back to station.
When warping back to station I got stuck on this big deadspace object just sat there trying to warp for ages pushing against the invisible edges of that object.
Fitting ships was good, but at the end of the in station tutorial you say undock and warp to place, but when I undock the tutorial window says dock in station to continue this tutorial (I should have closed it I think)
When telling them to r-click -> show info on their item you havenÆt explained looking at the details of the item yet. Most ppl will realise the tabs but IÆm being as clueless a noob as I can be.
Should tell them about ctrl + click to lock, and weapons tracking if your too close to an object.
When teaching about npcÆs ôThey should be close, and are marked by a red triangle both in space and on your overview.ö Do I need to draw what a triangle looks like for you guys??
Back in station, what do I do? Just add a hint ôaccept another missionö ... btw this is not teaching good behaviour, accept mission -> complete -> accept mission etc. thereÆs more ways to play eve than that.
IÆm in a new system what do I do now?
Have all these ships to look at and you just showed us how to show info, I think we should be seeing actual ship info ie abaddon info not amarr abaddon battleship info.
GET BACK TO YOU? I donÆt even know which system you are in :panic:
Reward for the final mission is a outfit, and i don't know how to get dressed yet. I'm assuming that's coming soonÖ
Overall very good, need to add a bit more about window management. Should have some triggers so if they appear stuck you give them more instructions for some really basic stuff.
