Alien tutorial
This will unlock the Darwin Award achievement.
Open the tutorial and go through it until you're asked to parasite a marine, swich to parasite (otherwise you won't be able to go into the room you need) then run towards the marine WITHOUT parasiting him, do this until you get the achievement (biting the marine is ok, you can't kill him).
Marine commander tutorial
This will unlock the Clogbeard's Treasure achievement.
Open the tutorial and go through it until you're tasked with scanning the alien hive, instead of scanning it scan literaly anywhere else until you get the achievement.
Alien commander tutorial
This will unlock the The Last Straw achievement.
This used to be the hardest achievement but it was later made easier.
Follow the tutorial up until you're tasked with building a spur, when that happens watch the gorge and do nothing else until you get the achievement. This is by far the best achievement.
That's all
If you think something is unclear, want me to add more images or achievements or something else just ask.

while doing Darwin Award I actually managed to get close to marine during his reload time, and bite. This happened multiple times, once I even bite him 3 times at once before dying. Ofc he doesnt die :)

And now while building a shade, one of the skulks is too close to the spot it wants me to build it, and I get 'Can't build on entity'. T_T This is so incredibly frustrating. This is the second game breaking bug I've run into in terms of the Alien Tutorial.

I did however find the solution to the harvester issue. If you're unable to build a harvester during the Alien Tutorial, click on the Advanced and Assist tab's, then go back to the harvester and build.

I don't understand the issues I'm having. When I attempt to drop a harvester in Gravity Control, it won't work. This is the only tutorial that seems to have many issues.

After testing it myself i updated the guide with how to do it in the current version.

Yeah. Just tried it again. So here ar the steps you have to complete normally in the tutorial:
- Build cysts to the south
- Build cysts to the north
- Build the harvester south
- Upgrade to the shift hive
- Build cysts to Hydroponics
The narator will now tell you to build spurs in main base. But you can just wait in Hydroponics until the gorge arrives. Then just look at what the gorge is doing.

If that does not work (maybee the exact moment is random?) you can do what i did. Complete a step. Look what the gorge is doing. If it's not doing something new/productive (like building a structure that is never going to finish) and you waited a while complete the next step and repeat.

Same here, nothing happened after doing exactly that.

Drogot are you sure? I tried that and it did nothing.

You now have to watch the gorge after you placed the cysts to hydro

I too cannot get the achievement for the Alien Commander mission. Once the game starts, the Gorge will not spawn until you look at one of the res nodes. When going back, the Gorge will run to a part of the map and just stand still.

Furthermore, the tutorial broke on me at one point and I couldn't progress... I think the entire Alien Commander tutorial is broken.
