hide-tutorials

If you’ve played the game before and don’t need to see the tutorial popups that show up on every new fort, hide-tutorials can hide them for you. You can enable this tool as a system service in the “Services” tab of gui/control-panel so it takes effect for all forts and adventures.

Specifically, this tool hides:

  • The popup displayed when creating a new world

  • The “Do you want to start a tutorial embark” popup

  • Popups displayed the first time you open the labor, burrows, justice, and other similar screens in a new fort

  • Popups displayed when you perform certain actions for the first time in an adventure

Note that only unsolicited tutorial popups are hidden. If you directly request a tutorial page from the help, then it will still function normally.

Usage

enable hide-tutorials
hide-tutorials
hide-tutorials reset

If you haven’t enabled the tool, but you run the command while a fort or adventure is loaded, all future popups for the loaded game will be hidden.

If you run the command with the reset option, all popups will be re-enabled as if they had never been seen or dismissed.
