WifTutorialTank

Overview

Shown the first time the player mounts the driver seat of a tank (specifically excluding APCs). Cancels if the player exits before the tutorial finishes on its own.

Inheritance

• Inherits from: MrxTutorial (src/resident/mrxtutorial.lua) — a real corpus module, already documented under Resident Modules, not an opaque native-only engine class despite this file living in src/vz/.
• Imports: none

Instance pattern

A subclass of the corpus’s MrxTutorial task-framework base class — self-based lifecycle overrides, not the Inheritable/uGuid object pattern used in resident/. No module-level or per-instance state beyond what the base class itself tracks (_tEvents).

Functions

GetMessage()

Returns the fixed message key "[Tutorial.Tank]".

SetupActivationCriteria(self)

Registers an Event.ObjectInSeat listener for the player entering the driver seat of an object matching the label expression "Tank && !APC" ("D", "E") that calls self.ActivateTutorial(self, true).

SetupCancellationCriteria(self)

Registers an Event.ObjectInSeat listener for the player exiting the driver seat of an object labeled "Tank" ("D", "X") that calls self.EndTutorial(self, false).

Events

• Event.ObjectInSeat (x2) — entering a Tank-but-not-APC driver seat activates; exiting a Tank-labeled driver seat cancels.

Notes for modders

• Trigger key: "Tanks" (plural), per MrxTutorialManager’s catalog. Self-arms via SetupActivationCriteria.
• The label filter supports boolean expressions — "Tank && !APC" excludes APCs from counting as tanks for activation — but the cancellation listener just uses plain "Tank" with no && !APC exclusion. Minor asymmetry between the two filters, worth knowing if debugging edge cases involving APC-labeled objects.
• No SetupCompletionCriteria override — completes via the inherited 20-second timer, not the 10-second pattern common elsewhere in this category.
