Voice chat
A friend is talking you through installing a game mod over voice chat: download, unzip, move the folder, edit a file, restart. You have lost the thread.
They say: "Download it, unzip, drop the folder in mods, edit the config, restart."
What could you ask?
Three things you could say. None of them is the one right answer; each note says why it fits the moment, or why it may not.
Wait, one at a time. Where do I download it?
A strong fit
It stops the list and asks for the first step. Everything else can follow.
Can you type the steps in the chat?
Also works here
Written steps you can follow at your pace. You may still need to ask about one.
Say "got it" and do nothing.
Worth a second look
You can. The mod stays uninstalled and your friend thinks you are done.
What people here usually expect
- Over voice, asking for one step at a time is common. Typed steps are common too.
- Nobody expects you to hold five steps in your head.
- Saying "wait" is fine in a friend chat.
Your words
Write one message asking for the first step of a setup, in your own words.
In the app you write one line here and it lands in your lines. Nothing is graded.
The move this moment practises: One step at a time.
