How do I put descriptions in the scenarios i create?

Re: how do i put descriptions in the scenario?
 

Are you refering to the screens that come up before the scenario starts? That would be the text files in the scenario folder. I believe there are three for each scenario. Use the tutorial as an example and follow it's pattern. Once you learn what fields control what then you can branch out and vary from the pattern.

Having read this thread, I went and looked at the Tutorial for the first time in a year and a half.

And I think there is something wrong.

The tutorial text makes repeated references to a "T" button in the upper right hand corner of each window, which is used to re-open the turorial text window after closing it to follow the instructions.

There is no "T" button.

I usually run at 800x600, so I switched to 1024x768 to see if that was the issue. Still no "T" button.

It used to be there, many Versions ago.

I had not noticed the T button was missing. I do know that when it was there is was a hardcoded thing that other scenarios did not have access to. Only the Tutorial that came with the game itself would display the T button.

I noticed that the T button is missing also.

I found a hotkey for it in one of the (F1) Help lists; I think it was ctrl-T.

T button is there when I run the tutorial.. haven't tried it for the scen. yet haven't gotten that far.
