Updating to v50
AFAIK, it's yet to be seen how much Classic will resemble the new Premium versions, and hence how much of this material will be made completely redundant by the tutorial. What kind of purpose would we see this page being?
- update it and keep it as our own tutorial?
- retire it and try to merge useful pointers into Dwarf fortress mode?
- change it to be a "beyond the tutorial" guide? or an accompaniment to it?
BTW I haven't actually messed around with the new tutorial yet so I'm not sure what it covers. Tme5 (talk) 13:41, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
Side note: Going by this video the interface will be identical in function. --Jan (talk) 14:09, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
- You're right. OK, I just played the tutorial. It's not that bad, and the UI is of course more discoverable now, but it's extremely barebones. Personally I think we should update this page and keep it as our own expanded tutorial - and in the process we should try to deduplicate some info and link more to dedicated pages on certain topics, so there's less to keep up-to-date.
