No How to play Doc?

(1/2) > >>

Killertomato:
Although I know the game from the early stages and have played TD1 and the X-Mas Demo, I wonder if there is no such thing as a howtoplay section liek there was in those demos.
I.e. I don't know if there is anything to do in the base section other than spending money on new building complexes.
Or how to manage research n stuff.
So could someone enlighten me, please?  :?

Most of the stuff you mentioned (research, buildings) do not work yet. They are under development and only partly useable (and undocumented).

The only things that really work fully right now is the equipment screen and the battlescape (maybe some more, but these are the main ones).

Cheers for the link.
I'm so much looking forward to playing the whole thing when it's done...

Indeed... :D

Just a note, the UI in the howto doc is different to the ingame UI. For instance, none of the buttons on the geoscape are labelled ingame, and they are completely different in the document, so it's a guessing game...

Also, there are some new buttons on the battlescape. For example, a 'shield' button (something to do with reserving TUs for reaction fire? I don't really know). It would be nice to see even just a list of what the new buttons do...
