How do I get OUT of offline mode? It wasn't a problem in the actual "training," but now I have no idea how I stop cycling in the offline training, short of manually quitting Steam. Technically, I'm playing offline at this moment, but I found that pressing F4 normally somehow lets me get back to my desktop, with TF2 minimized. Whenever I'm ready to start playing again, I can always just bring up the window. However, there's a big problem with this: the game is still going. So, as I'm typing this, RED and BLU are battling it out while I'm just chilling in the base. Sometimes, several rounds pass me by while I'm doing this. I'm not nearly ready for online play yet, especially if I would have the same problem. I can't hear from the game while it's in this state, which is both a blessing and a curse. Could someone please help me? [[User:Parnifia|Parnifia]] 14:43, 30 May 2012 (PDT)

iliveinabucket: There appears to be a small glitch in training mode. In Spy training, during the part where you cloak past the sentry, if you knife the sentry to death instead, you skip directly to the backstabbing part.

Engineer training

Could someone do this part and note it in the main Training page? My computer seems to crash everytime I get to the tools section. Thanks! --Vaught 16:27, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Dustbowl training

after i complete the soldier weapons practice and the next button appears it will not load the Dustbowl map. I need it to complete my achievement.Turtlebolt 01:10, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

i have a same problem. Does somebody know how to solve it? Zver' 22:13, 7 July 2011 (PDT)

Bugged Training Mode

Shouldn't we add that the training mode is currently bugged for lots of players? (You don't proceed to Dustbowl after the soldier target practice.) LeGenD`RaGe 13:35, 31 July 2011 (PDT)

How is that a bug? There's a seperate option now for match practice. » Cooper Kid (Blether · Contreebs) 16:59, 31 July 2011 (PDT)

I think it is a bug; as you don't proceed to the 2nd part of the soldier training and just go back to the main menu you can't unlock the other classes. I myself have this problem as well, and I've heard lots of others complaining about it. LeGenD`RaGe 07:11, 2 August 2011 (PDT)

Is it be only you? I never see this bug until you write here Hinaomi 07:33, 2 August 2011 (PDT)

Update: It works fine for me now after the latest update. But it is/was not only me, e.g. there are 2 guys above who have the same problem and lots of other guys in other forums. LeGenD`RaGe 01:56, 4 August 2011 (PDT)

I think it's bug now. But need another one mind. Because my mind and your mind only can't write this bug. Hinaomi 08:24, 4 August 2011 (PDT)

Rename

I think this should be moved to Training Mode – if the other "mode" articles have been. Rolandius 05:50, 16 August 2011 (PDT)

It doesn't sound like you're in training mode if you have bots running around killing each other. Either way just press the Escape key to get to the game menu and click disconnect from server. User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 14:23, 31 May 2012 (PDT)

Entity feature request.

I have a feature suggestion regarding an entity used in training mode (training_annotation)

Currently it allows mappers to insert hints into their maps, but those hints can be seen for both teams, cannot be parented (to point at a moving object), and will be visible on the enire map.

Hers is what would be extremely useful for mappers:

  • add Team option (choices: any/red/blu) that allows to control what team will see the hint.
  • add ShowTeam1 and ShowTeam2 inputs to allow showing the same message for different teams at different times.
  • add parent (or Entity to point at) option
  • add Maximum visible distance option
  • add Can be seen through walls flag/option

Since it is my first post I have no idea if this is the right place to suggest stuff.
