Create Stages

Stage is the fundamental of tutorial steps. You can add as many stage as you want. Each stage can have multiple Tutorial Objects and different configurations.

Please be aware that only one stage can be played at a time.

• Auto Start: Automatically starts Tutorial Stage when entering PlayMode.

• Auto Start Stage Index: Auto starting stage index. -1 starts from first element.

Stage Index starts from 1, and increment down the array. It is using array position plus one notation. Do not use index 0.

Debug Mode: Outputs Tutorial Manager running message to the console. You could use this to check the status of running tutorials.

1. Add Stages

Click on '+' button to add your first Stage Object.

• Selected Stage Step: Indicates which stage object is selected on Editor.

• Current Tutorial Stage Step: Current playing stage index of the Tutorial Manager.

This stage step is managed by Tutorial Manager to do play and stop actions. Users do not need to modify this.

• Stage Object Name: Playing Stage Object name.

• Play State: State of current playing stage.

Idle: The stage is not playing.

Start: Stage is started.

End: Stage is ended.

Remember that the name and state are only shown on PlayMode. It only indicates the status of stage object obtained using currentStageStep index. The stage selected on Editor does not change the currentStageStep index of Tutorial Manager.

You could delete selected Stage Object by clicking on '-' button.

The Stage Objects could be reordered on the list by dragging it up or down. This would change its playing index accordingly.
