RTS Online: Tutorial Start Tutorial 1
Creating a tip message


Does all this RTS stuff seem a bit overwhelming? This tutorial should help get you started.

If you've had any experience using DeHackEd, both RTS and DDF editing should feel very familiar. Only with RTS, you have a plethora of amazing capabilities to do more advanced functions and special events than DeHacked and even Quake or Quake 2 can do.

This tutorial will show you how to create some simple, and some complex events:
-Creating a tip message
-Spawning monsters
-Controlling faded lights
-Triggering multiple line types
Follow the tutorials in this window, and use ALT+TAB to go back to the RTS Online editor to make your scripts. This will get you more familiarized with the editor and the various functions.

It's also necessary to use your map editor to find the x, y, radius, and z values you need in your scripts. Most map editors show where your mouse is in real time on the grid, and you can edit a sector's properties to find the z value you need.

The checkboxes () in the tutorial are there so you can check off the steps you have done as you go (nothing else) -use them if you find it useful.

Let's get started!
