 This article assumes you are using Visual Studio 2017 or Visual Studio Code. However, the instructions should be similar for any other version of Visual Studio, you just may need to retarget to a different platform toolset or Windows SDK (steps below). These instructions would also generally apply for other IDEs such as Code::Blocks, but their implementation steps will differ. If you are interested in documenting steps for Code::Blocks or other C++ IDEs, [[https://forum.outpost2.net/index.php?action=profile;u=1555|Angellus Mortis]] would be happy to help you add them in.
-If there are difficulties following this article, search through the Outpost Universe Forums or make a new forum post. This tutorial should be able to be completed with little prior programming experience. If you have no previous experience, it is recommended that you work through a beginner C++ book before continuing to program a new scenario. If you have no experience with Version Control Systems (VCS) like git, it is also recommended you checkout out some tutorials on Git: [[https://git-scm.com/docs/gittutorial]], [[https://guides.github.com/introduction/git-handbook/]].

 Once you have an IDE project compiling DLLs for Outpost 2, review the [[op2_sdk:projectsettings|Outpost 2 Project Settings Wiki Page]] for more optional IDE settings that will streamline the scenario development process.
