Feedback/Bug Reports
Found A couple of minor bugs I wanted to bring up to help fine tune this great resource
1. "Attacking" SUNSFan in Fountain instead of the Dummy will cause player to Target and attack dummy instead. Could be Slightly confusing
2. Hero Voice Lines while Power rune Rangers are fighting Roshan clash with the Voice-Over
3. During Roshan Explainer there is a typo: "in the pit" is shown as "int he pit"

* It is not explained that there is a chapter selection. You may want players to keep following the tutorial but given the tutorial is lengthy, it may still be a good idea to explain that there is a way to stop and then pick up form the chapter where you left.
* Often using default hotkey prompts even when hotkeys in question are customized
* attacking Sunsfan as a part of the tutorial may not be obvious as there's no clear prompt and the dialogue is a bit ambiguous
* no mention of keyboard-controlled(i.e wasd) camera movement
* buying from shop while away from shop is not very well presented. When player is asked to buy from a shop a natural response is to go back to base first, which seem counter to the purpose of that section of the tutorial as it is supposed to demonstrate buying from afar and using a courier. IMO player should be blocked form getting back to base and the explanation of buying from anywhere should be provided before the item is bought.
* wards: it is not clearly explained that wards are invisible for the enemy team unless spotted by their own sentry ward
* bounty rune is pickable right after it spawns before its purpose is explained, which might be a bit confusing
* voiceover of the last paragraph of power rune explanation(spawn times and no standing still stuff) is rather quite and is overlayed by the fight sounds and whatever voice line there is when rosh starts attacking. That paragraph's voiceover should start 2-3 seconds later to avoid that.
* the finale of the tutorial(destroying the ancient) is a bit too lengthy for what it is and devoid of any meaningful gameplay or explanations.
* there is no explanations of how enemy base backdoor protection works and when exactly each tier of towers, barracks and the ancient become vulnerable. This is especially bad given tier 4 backdoor protection rules can be rather confusing for new players

There are some dialogue writing issues, like SUNSfan says something different but the subtitle on the screen says something else, like the when you die and wait to respawn, Sunsfan says about getting a coffee or something while the subtitles say find the meaning of life. I found 2-3 more, sadly I didn't note what they are. I know Slacks said its being worked on, but I just wanted to help you know here it was so it's easier although I couldn't provide much feedback on where they are. I think all 3 were Sunsfan dialogues.

teach people how to disconnect by going back to the overview screen before they go to the party? so they know how to leave without alt+f4'ing
also make it so that when you kill the ancient it doesnt auto-end, but instead shows the normal victory screen.

besides that. Great job!

I broke the last hit part of the tutorial. I think it was because I used the minimap to move into the T1 and kill myself while the game was explaining last hitting and the creep waves. I respawned into the lane correctly but couldn't advance further due to the issue.

Also when told to buy tangos I was able to use the courier to buy it which may confuse players as you obviously can't eat your way out unless your hero has them.

When a player clicks on something that he is not supposed to, its confusing to him how to get back to his main hero controls and UI

I think that when the player clicks on something to have a quick message pop up telling him whats that and how to get back to his hero.

Simplified shop UI is now enabled by default, so it breaks tutorial's item buying prompts.

Highlighted button prompts for tutorial are too bright and not opaque at all. While overall it wasn't too bad, it's pretty much game breaking for the "stacking" part of the tutorial as you can't see when the timer is at "xx:53" :d2naturesprophet:

Think they mean its not transparent. Stacking was more an exercise of "guess when the timer is 0:53" because you can't see it.

I know that's what they mean. I was quoting it because that's the issue I noticed

Same issue:

Panorama::RequiredCallFailed():
Unable to load layout file 'file://{resources}/layout/custom_game/sections/sections03.xml'. This may indicate a problem with your local files, etc.
