"This tutorial will be unlocked later in the game"

Hi there,
I am seeking for help with the in-game tutorials. On my current map I finished the "Inventory transfers" in-game tutorial nearly at starting with the map. Now (186 rocket launches later) I can't access the other tutorials from the list. All are listed with red background and the "Play tutorial" button is disabled with tooltip "This tutorial will be unlocked later in the game".
What am I doing wrong? I am thankful for any help ...

They should unlock when the tech becomes available, you can unlock them manually by editing the player-data.json file and changing each status to "suggested".

Thanks for the hint, unfortunately this doesn't work for me :/ I changed the content for the incomplete tutorials from "not-suggested-yet" to "suggested" (and saved it
) but when I start the map, the tutorial screen doesn't change and when I close Factorio and come back to the json file, the values are reverted to "not-suggested-yet".
I changed manually the content within "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Factorio\player-data.json", was this the right file?
Original content:
Code: Select all
"tutorials":
{
"stack-transfers":
{
"status": "completed"
},
"logistic-system-basic":
{
"status": "not-suggested-yet"
},
"construction-robots":
{
"status": "not-suggested-yet"
},
"trains-basics":
{
"status": "not-suggested-yet"
},
"trains-ghost-rail-planner":
{
"status": "not-suggested-yet"
},
"trains-stations":
{
"status": "not-suggested-yet"
},
"trains-basic-signals":
{
"status": "not-suggested-yet"
},
"trains-advanced-signals":
{
"status": "not-suggested-yet"
}
},

The directory of the file depends on your installation, but since it is reverted on restart it seems to be the correct file. I suspect steam is overwriting the file assuming you are using steam. Alternatively start a complete new game and run /c game.player.force.research_all_technologies() twice, the first time you will get a warning, it should make steam update the cached file.
