Tutorial

*(Note: Do not confuse this page with the category Tutorial. This page is for the standard tutorial that is built into the game.)*

The Tutorial is a mode in Junon.io. It's purpose is to show inexperienced players how to play the game, and demonstrates a variety of functions such as crafting, butchering, and farming. It is accessed by going to the Junon.io main page, selecting the 'Mine' tab, and selecting 'New Colony'. A pop-up will show asking the player if they would like to do the Tutorial, and clicking 'Yes' will lead to the Tutorial. This only works if the player has not already selected 'No' previously (which can be fixed by clearing the history on one's computer).

## Gameplay

### Upon Spawning

Players will spawn at a Beacon, placed in the first of a series of rooms. Players will be instructed to enter certain rooms at different intervals. Each room will have a series of items in it that correspond to the instructions on the player's screen. When one instruction is completed, another will appear. The player will gradually make their way from the Spawn Room at one end of the area to the small farm on the other side. If the player has completed all of their instructions, the tutorial will be registered as completed. Occasionally something will happen, such as mobs spawning, to help the player complete the next task. Keep in mind that each instruction must be followed to advance to the next one, and skipping instructions will not work.

### List of Instructions

*(Note: In the tutorial, some text is yellow. Yellow text is shown in **bold**.)*

1. Move around using **w**, **a**, **s**, **d** keys.
2. Go to room 2 and **mine 10 iron ores** by clicking on an asteroid.
3. Open crafting menu by pressing **C** and make a **Lead Pipe**.
4. Go to room 3 and **release the guard** from the Cryo Tube. To do that, highlight the Cryo Tube and press **E**.
5. Kill the guard.
6. Go to room 4 and **grab potatoes** from the blue steel crate. Right click to open storage.
7. **Eat potato** to restore your hunger.
8. Equip your survival tool and **remove the steel crate** by highlighting it and holding the mouse down until it breaks.
9. **Tame a slime** by feeding it potatoes. While you have potatoes equipped, simply go to the slime to feed it.
10. Kill the other slime.
11. Grab the slime corpse by highlighting it and pressing **E** and go over to **Butcher Table** to chop it.
12. **Cook the gel** into gelatin using the stove.
13. Change the Dummy Player's permission by clicking it and changing the value in the **Permissions drop down**.
14. Go into the next room and **sleep on your bed** to restore your stamina.
15. Grab the **Space Suit** on the suit rack.
16. Go to next room. The oxygen generator doesn't have any water source currently. You can refill it using a water bottle. **Grab a bottle** from escape pod and collect water from liquid tank.
17. **Fill the oxygen generator** with water. The room should now have some oxygen.
18. You can refill your spacesuit oxygen as well by interacting **E** with the oxygen generator.
19. We can automate the oxygen generation process. Just connect a liquid pipe from liquid tank to the oxygen generator. **Craft some Iron Bars** using the **Furnace**. You need some iron ores which can be found in the escape pod.
20. Craft a **Liquid Pipe**. When you open the craft menu, you can use **search bar** to look for the Liquid Pipe.
21. **Connect the Liquid Pipe** between oxygen generator and liquid tank.
22. Congratulations. The room is now oxygenated. Exit the room and use the **Rail Tram** to go to the farm station.
23. **Grab a wheat seed** from the escape pod and plant it on the soil.
24. Use your bottle to collect water from the lake and **water the soil** with seed. This speeds up the crop growth.
25. Slaves can automate farming for you. You just need to **place a Farm Controller** beside a soil. Grab one from the escape pod.
26. Highlight the farm controller and open its menu to change the target crop to **Wheat**.
27. Slaves would now start planting wheat seeds as long as they are available in storage. They will also water plants that haven't been watered if they can find a bottle from nearby storage.

After the player has gone through all of the instructions, a popup will display, saying 'Congratulations! You have finished the tutorial. Do you wish to make your own space colony now?' along with two buttons saying 'No' and 'Yes'. If the player clicks 'No', they stay in the tutorial. If the player clicks 'Yes', a default colony is made, and the player can start a Sandbox, Survival, or Hardcore game.

### Mechanics

The mechanics in this gamemode are modified from the usual mechanics. Even though the server is owned by the participating player, no commands can be used except /spectate. All players have the 'Guest' permissions, and cannot do anything except damage PvP players. The Command Blocks menu cannot be viewed, which removes the ability to view how the game was coded. Each player's health is the default amount (100), but food reduces by (?) each second, oxygen reduces by (?) each second (when in Space without a suit), and stamina reduces by (?) each second (while moving).
