Explanations for the upgrades (had no idea how to use predature tracking array upgrade till I saw a thread on this forum) What each item does (don't know if that's what you meant by hold bonuses) The fact that you can see the list of buy and sell prices for all places you've gone to for a particular item by pressing the picture of a trade item (press the artifcats picture to see buy and sell prices fo artifcats for all places you've visited) Faction rep and rank, how to increase and decrease rep, what higher rank does, etc Benifits of professions (hd no idea what special survalience for contracts meant for bounty/military until I read it on the forum, same thing for trade records for merchant or smuggler) Enemy captains (what do pirate do if you lose a batle, or smugglers or merchants or bountyies, what they each generally carry in hold, ships they normally go in etc) There's a lot of stuff to put in help cause there's a lot of stuff about star traders  |

Right, here's where I am now - I've copied/pasted a whole load of stuff into html files. Still have to add a lot of links between pages. Still need the following - -list of alien ship types -better introduction to user interface, bridge, status page etc, etc (for first time users, basically) -check all rumors in the table, and that their effects are correct -haven't added all ship upgrades yet, will get round to this at some point Any suggestions on stuff needing to go in, formatting, stuff needing changed, etc? Also, anyone know hold bonuses for bounty hunter/templar officers? Doesn't seem to want to upload here, link to google docs is docs.google.com/open?id=0B1mxPp_5ePx8YmhFR3hlYmhkODAEdit: click the link, then file->download, and view files locally. |

Rather than a dry user manual I would rather discover most of the cool features and strategies and tips in the Spice Hall Rumors. Like today I just discovered on the forum that there are low quality torps. A neat fact that could surely show up in a rumor...like "There has been a dreadful report of cheap knock off torps at in dependant spaceports.

I had totally mis-understood the behavior of Google Docs with zip files. I geti it now. Incredible ... SlayerNZ -- thoughts? |

Good gods! My work is done! This is an amazing step in the right direction for an indexed help doc (with lots of valuable information). I am happy to either work on this existing framework (adding additional content as I have it), or pass the baton onto Shallowthought With HTML, we can include images for all of the UI elements (for getting started, etc). alphabravo, I hear what you are saying - and I'm sure Cory would be happy to add some additional rumors to the mix that helps drive some additional understanding, but having an indexed help file on-hand for those users who actually want to see the nitty gritty is invaluable. Wow ... I'm still impressed with the doc! |

There are no hold bonuses for the templar/bounty officers. Cory stated that he had a different plan for them, though I don't know what he meant. |

I am happy to either work on this existing framework (adding additional content as I have it), or pass the baton onto Shallowthought I would be happy to help continue to improve this documentation, but I'm starting a new job in about a week so can't guarantee how much time I can put into it. If slayernz wants to coordinate I can pass on updates/new info, etc., but it's probably best if I don't commit to something I can't guarantee I'll be able to do. |
