Video Tutorial Project
« on: July 23, 2015, 04:34:52 PM »
Hey there, off of work again to go back to school which is going to give me some time to seriously mess around with Aurora again.  (also getting to finally work on learning a language)
But I started contemplating doing a few video tutorials for a few things in game cause well, some things like the naval organization window, while they have good written tutorials... might still be a bit confusing to someone who can't just watch and see how it happens. like seriously, I didnt even know how 70% of the basic stuff in the game worked, till after playing them myself and seeing what happened, even though there was a text guide (here or on the wiki) telling me.

Few other things I was planning on touching on.
Video showing mock combat showing the reasoning for multiple FCs on AMM escorts, and how the fcs react to getting attacked by several salvos.
How mines work and what it looks like from the person flying into them.
Perhaps a video about "dumbfiring" active sensored missiles, and plotting targets out infront.
Showing visibly the effects of TCS verses sensor resolution
Missile/mirv/mine design video? How to set up automated tankers to drain NPC fuel harvesters (or even player FHs). Video about huge ship design (250kt+)?

Any suggestions on other stuff?

Whole idea started though with me trying to teach a couple friends how to play, and in the teaching about ship to ship combat, making up a galaxy with 6 systems (yep, 6. sol, 3 "no mans lands" and the other 2 are starting points for the other 2 empires) and having generally a ton of fun watching them try and throw poorly designed noobships at eachother, while occasionaly popping out with a couple of my own ships at about 1/2 the tech level, but significantly better at fighting.


Honestly I kinda want to do that, then start a campaign in earnest that I wanted to do a video TAR of (ofcourse cutting out hours of boring micro)
