hints

Post by gyboth »

since there is no docs for the 1.9 branch, the game should at least give hints about the not-so-obvious aspects and possibilities. probably as a popup window when bygfoot is started, but if anyone has a better idea, do tell me.

yeah i was seeing this on the splash screen. a gtk notebook with tabs
the tab with focus would be the splash screen image of course but then you could have an "about" tab with author info etc and "quickstart" tab with your hints and quick rules etc.
i think thats neater than pop ups.
id also put resume last game and start new as the buttons to continue.
start new would bring up the current first screen(pick you team etc)
