How to add in game tips and tricks

Post by mami »

If I wanted to create an in game tutorial or guide for my mod similar to how vanilla factorio's tips and tricks functions, how would I do that? Is there any documentation available on how to do this?

Check out the code in that mod. I'm pretty sure that one has mod added tips & tricks.

Nixie Tubes and Spidertron Enhancements both have complex tips and tricks with simulations, which require the simhelper mod to work.

Module Inserter Simplified and Power Overload have simple text-only entries which are dead easy to add.
