tutorial in game

Hey,

how to make tutorial features in my game? I mean when you for example start a new game I would like to have some arrows pointing at a particular place so the players will know what to do in order to start play.

Or at least tell me how to spawn an object on start of layout - > but only on the FIRST start of layout..

trance

Add Action > System > On Start Of Layout

Add Event > System > Create Object

yes i know that but it will be spawned on every start of layout right? I need just the FIRST start !

When you add the action 'On Start Of Layout' you select the first layout.

If you mean that you're going to be restarting the tutorial layout a second time and you don't want the object to appear again, set up a global variable 'TutorialFirstRun' and set to 1.

Add Action > System > On Start Of Layout

• (If TutorialFirstRun=1) Add Event > System > Create Object
• Set 'TutorialFirstRun' to 0

When the layout is restarted, global variable should remain at 0 and stop the object creation
