Add Tips to loadscreen

Brain · 2015-07-17 03:48:24

What is gbp?
Who the Fxxx trolled my level?
How do i blablabla...
...

Well that's enough, Many new users doesn't know the new features implemented into EE, we have to find a way to educate them.

Suggested solution:
Add a Tips bar to the lower part of the loadscreen, which show tips randomly (eg) Hate Trolls? use /gbp to catch them!)
This is quite simple to implement

How do u think? Do u have any ideas?

Like geometry dash? nice idea

I think you forgot that Everybody Edits have an help site. So you can find right here: http://everybodyedits.com/help
Have a small button "Help" on the lobby:
Impossible to not see this. So if you can't see, we should ask admins to do the button more bigger

It should be nice, 80% players don't read the 'help''

And if this gets implemented, we should ask the admins to make the loadscreen take more time to load so players can look around and see the bottom of the loadscreen and have enough time to read the text.

Adding tips would be a good feature. Seeing "Use the arrow keys to move around and space bar to jump" every single time joining a world is a bit deflating.

What about adding it here?

In the blank space.

That is the MAIN reason i always time out. Damn your suggestion

skullz17 · 2015-07-17 14:41:18

Or just introduce them to a few commands, including the /help command, in the tutorial.

What about having it on level? Maybe showing in /help.

Badoosh · 2015-07-17 15:22:39

Why bother with commands? We have a level interface pop up that has plenty of room for more buttons. Tbh gbp (and more) would work much better as a button, and would be easier and quicker to use.

I really like this idea though
"Click on the icon next to a players name to view their profile"
"Click on a players name to spectate them"
"See a player with an orange name? That's a moderator!"
"Collect coins for a small chance of magic"
"Don't write '100% tested' in your levels because it's already implied and makes you look like a dunce : (" This one is a joke
"Don't share your password to anybody! Mods never ask for it"
"Only give the code to people you can trust"

I think EE need to have a box of all commands only in own levels, so when the owner press a command, open anoher small box to write player name if the command needs a player name?
And a "?" button for help.

Slushie · 2015-07-17 18:32:48

If you ask me, EE is way too command-heavy. We should get rid of most of the commands and simply integrate them into the UI.

But, on topic: I really like the idea of having tips on the load screen. But maybe not the load screen that you see when you join a level, because it's too fast, and I'm not a fan of slowing down level loading just so the tips are readable.

Yup. To name a few: Clearchat, list portals, help (players literally don't know about /help), kill, etc.

Era · 2015-07-17 19:11:24

What do you expect? EE is kindoff a IRC clone , atleast of the protocol, irc didnt have fancy Ui :3.

Creature · 2015-07-17 19:23:53

What about "Don't bother being called noob, because you really are"?

Giving edit, removing edit, godon, godoff, kicking, those should have a ui option. I think clearchat is okay as a command, same with list portals.

Totally forgot that portals show their ID now during god mode.

Regardless, I think clear chat should be UI, though that's up for debate.

most maps of mine take 100+ portals, I'm not going to check every single one.

Let's start out with a list of tips that others find useful; at least that gives us a foundation and something for the developers to work with if they choose to implement this feature.

Tips:
- Having problems with vandals? Just use the /gbp command to find out who placed a block.
- community tips will be added as they come available...

- Want to give edit but not the code? Use /giveedit [username]
- Don't kick a mod, you'll get kicked instead

need for speed confirmed.

I like the idea tho.
