The In-game tutorial is accessed through the very first game screen after you have chosen Start New Commander.
There are 9 lessons:
- 1 ... The HUD
- 2 ... Using the scanner
- 3 ... Flight training (includes dodging practice for dogfights)
- 4 ... Weapons systems
- 5 ... Missiles
- 6 ... Combat practice (teaching how to dogfight ... rather than sniping from a distance)
- 7 ... Docking practice
- 8 ... Information screens (F5 & F5F5, F6 & F6F6, etc)
- 9 ... System Navigation (from the Witchpoint beacon to the main orbital station)
The b and n buttons
One uses the n button to advance in each lesson.
The b button modifies the n button: It toggles the n-button between 3 functions:
- next stage in lesson (default setting)
- next lesson
- restart lesson
So to skip several lessons one must press b ... n then b ... n and then b ... n repeatedly
History
The in-game tutorial was introduced by Cim as part of the innovations in Oolite version 1.80 back in 1984
