Tutorial Room

The Tutorial Room scene can be found in Assets/Scenes. It is meant to teach the player how to operate the buttons on the controller, navigate the area, as well as use interactive objects such as the PhotoSpheres & 360 Videos, InfoPanels, and Geornal Objects.

The Tutorial Room has several unique scripts working their magic simultaneously:

TutorialManager

This singleton script manages the enabling and disabling of controller buttons corresponding to where in the tutorial the player is.

Other scripts such as the IndividualTutorialTooltipToggler below will call public methods from TutorialManager to enable or disable controller buttons and therefore their usability. This is useful for preventing the player from accidentally using a button not yet explained and causing confusion.

IndividualTutorialTooltipToggler

This script requires the GameObject to have a Collider component that is set to be a Trigger.

There is a public Buttons enumerator, which shows up on the Unity inspector as a dropdown menu of controller button names. This public enumerator can be found in TooltipManager. This decides what controller button will be enabled or disabled.

On entering the area set by the collider, this script will enable the appropriate tooltip and controller button. On exiting the area, the controller tooltip will be disabled.

SpotlightToggler

This script turns on all the spotlights in the public Light array "spotlights".

Similarly to the IndividualTutorialTooltipToggler, the spotlights are enabled upon entering the collider area. On exiting, they are not affected however.

Warning! Make sure the spotlight you add to the array has it's Light component disabled to begin with!

TutorialNarration

This script will play the assigned public AudioClip variable called "narration".

Similarly to the IndividualTutorialTooltipToggler and SpotlightToggler, the narration is played upon entering the collider area. The narration will only end if the player enters another collider area with a TutorialNarration component or finishes the AudioClip.
