+ | [[File:LearningHelper.png|frame|Some of the lessons in the Learning Helper. From earlier versions.]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | Learning helper sits in the top right of the screen. If something happens relating to a concept the player hasn’t learned, that lesson will be activated and shown on the learning helper. It can then be opened and read. Lessons are automatically marked as learned when the player does the necessary interaction, and can be marked as learned manually. Lessons are shown as needed by circumstance, or on a slow timer. The overall idea is that you’ll never be shown a lesson you already know, but always be shown the lessons you need to know now. It can be expanded and searched for any lesson, so you can look up how to do a specific thing at any time. | ||
The learning helper can have custom lessons added by mods. | The learning helper can have custom lessons added by mods. | ||
