    New Introduction

    So currently the game sends you this message when you log in. How should I change it to better explain the mechanics of the game to new users?

    Welcome to Buypoe Wars!

    The first thing you should do is build a Solar Power plant. This should be your first task because energy is needed for the subsequent production of raw materials. To build it, left click the navbar option "Buildings". Then construct the 4th Building from the top. There, you now have energy. Now you can begin to build mines. Go back to that same page and build a metal mine, then a crystal mine. In order to be able to build ships you need to have first built a shipyard. To find out what you need you can navigate over to the "Technology" tab on the navbar.

    Good luck exploring the universe!

    How about a popup tutorial? Or maybe a GUI overlay thing instead..? That both go into more depth

    You need to make it more user-friendly.

    Be a little cheeky and silly, it usually works.

    Here, I'll rephrase yours.

    If you're a little confused about where to start, try looking through a few of your options on your navbar (found to the left of your page) there's a handy starters guide which you can find "Here" (link).
    In BPW you need power to make things run, as do all things, so make sure you first build a Solar Power Plant from your "Buildings" tab on your navbar. Then once you've done that, you might want to create a few mines which can be found in the same place in order to gather yourself some more raw materials.
    If you're wanting to jump in straight away and start building ships, you first need a shipyard, which can be built after your "Robot Factory" is level 2 or above.
    Etc.
