Question - IDE Authoring Tutorials

[Marc Aubanel]

I am having the hardest time trying to figure out how to use the new Tutorials feature in GameMaker Studio 2 (which is great by the way!). I searched in the manual and played with the Tutorial Template that is on the store.

I copied the files in the directory but it seems like the tutorial won't load with the project yyp having a tutorial link. On the Template it links to "tutorial": "com.YoyoGames.TutorialTemplate". Does this mean I have to publish to the Marketplace to see my tutorial?

Hello! Yes, indeed, a tutorial has to be uploaded to the marketplace and then downloaded through the library. See the section "Making a Tutorial" from the manual for a rundown of how this works: https://docs2.yoyogames.com/index.html?page=source/_build/2_interface/2_extras/marketplace.html

I followed this procedure. I create a project with the downloaded yyp but it is sill not showing the tutorial window. I am following all the directions (I believe), and it is currently private as I am just trying to work out a workflow to author one. When I look at the project file in one of the gamemaker samples in a text editor I see they set "tutorial": "com.YoyoGames.TutorialTemplate" but mine is empty. When I try to add it manually the tutorial window selection is available but nothing pops up.
