I loved the tips of KKND2: Krossfire. Ones such as "Don't run with scissors" and "Use salt to remove wine from carpet".

"Did you know you can right click a brick from the brick menu to use it instantly?" :D

Seriously?
I didn't know that D:

"Did you know most people do not like it when you ask for their admin password?"

Here would be a fun one, only displayed if they have reached the datablock limit last time they ran a server(checked after the server started, and saved to a $pref) � sorta as an easter egg.
"Did you know you have waaaaay too many add-ons?"

"Did you know you look more intellegent if you paint your bricks as you build?"

These ones tie in with the admin one.
"Did you know you shouldn't ask to load a save upon connecting, regardless of how good it is?"
"Did you know the ability to use f8/f7 is no reason to ask for admin?"

Here's one that should be removed from the players list the first time they visit the controls section of the options menu.
"Did you know you can configure your controls to your liking?"

"Did you know Blockland is doing nothing for world hunger?"

Good idea.I want this in V9.Would dramatically decrease amount of people who dont know some basics.

Also,my ideas:

"Never press ALT+F4 unless you want get fast outta there."
"Use /clearvehicles to clear all vehicles."

I think they should just be tech tipes, like right clicking a brick to use it without putting it in your cart. Manor things are useless, as most will just ignore it.

I don't think etiquette is really appropriate for tips.

Neozuki · April 25, 2008, 06:58:10 AM

I like this idea. I think it would add to the general polished feel of the game and help new players at the same time.

Zerosan · April 25, 2008, 07:44:07 AM

and for v10 I want dynamic ingame tips ;)

but so far, nice idea, I like it.

Destiny/Zack0Wack0 · April 25, 2008, 08:11:09 AM

Actually, I'm going to look into this.

Ephialtes · April 25, 2008, 08:31:47 AM

I've already made a demo of this - If Wedge could find some time to compile a list of tips, that'd be really helpful

And have the players be able to submit their own tips.
No.
That would cause major confusion and will simply not work out. It won't be long before you see stupid tips if your were to incorporate that idea.

As for the idea itself, I love it :D

I love this whole post Idea and ^

You could make Super Admins able to though, it might help.

Normal players could just say them.

General Omega · April 26, 2008, 10:32:38 AM

There are super admins on the main menu?

Siren · April 26, 2008, 03:07:12 PM

^_^ no. but on the loading screen on servers there are..

Did you know?

You shouldn't hang around with Furdle.
