Tutorial

Vanilla tutorial

The vanilla tutorial is divided into goal lists. Each list activates when its activation criteria are met and provides a group of goals and rewards.

Some goals are presented in sequence, with later goals becoming available after earlier goals are completed. Rewards are queued as loot when a goal list is completed.

Notes

• The table describes the live tutorial goals. Obsolete compatibility goals are omitted.
• Construction goals count constructed entities; planned or under-construction entities do not satisfy them.
• Some titles imply physical connections or deliveries. Those relationships are not always checked by the underlying construction goal.
• The Reduce refugee arrivals goal list is excluded from the global tutorial full-completion check.
