Next Tip: Click The Loading Tip to Get a New One

Next Tip:
  • Click on a loading tip to get another one.
  • No tip will be displayed twice in a row, even between games.
This mod makes the loading screen slightly more interesting by letting you change the tip you get. Say you're some newbie who wants to read several tips while he's loading. Well, now that's an option. It's easy/fun/awesome. Go check it out!

Honmod version


s2z (standalone) version (modifies game_loading.interface)

Out of curiosity, is there a place where I can easily read all the loading tips?

Yep, just got to get them out of the interface_en string table. I cleaned it up with a regex, here you go:

Mod after mod, Ignorance, you're making **** possible. Even for people who just joined the game.

...would like to see this in the actual game though. Throw it to the suggestion board.
Otherwise, a metaphorical +1.

very nice Ignorance. Simple and useful, as always.

Request: Can you "clean up" how the tips looks? Like, have everything centered, instead of to the left. Also, the box that the tips are in, I think it would look better if it was slightly transparent. I don't know how hard it would be to do this, but I think it would make it look...pretties? Dunno

My load time is barely long enough to even read the first tip and thats only on first load. The second game i play without restarting i dont have time to read any tip that is over 6 words. I cant even believe that people have time to actually cycle through tips.

PS: I find it totally useless, since I often can't even read the first hint in the 2nd game due to ultra-low loading times.

Maybe good for people with very very weak PCs though...

Well, even if you don't want it, you will have it, because is now implemented. Congratulations Ignorance

Go look at deadwood in slomo when he's idling. Also, there's a huge chiprel in darkwood vale (3v3) in the south-eastern part of the map, to the left of the right lane.
