Hey I just wanted to say a big Thank You to the OP. As a new comer to ED it is really really appreciated and tons of useful! Thanks!
 
Just a couple of possible updates/additions if you don't already have a note of them.

Page 24 - has two more additional keybindings

Enable Frameshift Drive to Supercruise

Enable Frameshift Drive to Hyperspace Jump

These are in addition to the Enable Frameshift Drive. I think this came into effect in Gamma 1.0 after requests to separate the two frameshift drive functions. The main advantage I believe is when you have a hyperspace jump targeted but cant make the jump yet for various reasons but you want to go to supercruise.

Page 26

Under the Comms Panel we now have Galaxy Map allowing a keybinding to bring up the map rather than plough through menu's.

Page 116 (Galaxy Map)

Underneath the cargo slider at the bottom left we now have Jump Range and two figures, one in brackets. eg 18.70LY (19.90LY)
Not sure what the difference in them both are. Would like to know.


Great reference work.
 
I'm very late to spot this fantastic guide/manual/tutorial/resource.

Brilliant, brilliant - yay, thrice brilliant work there 'forger'.

Frontier have their work cut out to produce something as good as this for when E-D launches.
 
Thank You, Frontier should make this official and pay you.

As a non Beta buyer, I only have pre-order flight training to prepare me.

This is just what I needed to help me prepare for the ass kicking I no doubt will get, until I shed my rookie wings.

I salute you, Frontier should make this official and pay you.
 
That's all great and all but I still want official manual from FD where many many currently mysterious game mechanics will be explained.
 
How about a section on communication with fellow commanders.

it's kinda broken (at least for me), i just had a chat within that "system" and after every 3-4 messages i got unable to connect message, quit/load game and again 3-4 messages sent successfully and then unable, not what i want to describe :)

also it used to be much better because you actually saw -x- or loading symbol, now there is nothing, you write long text message just to find out that it's not sent, so i now send a "test" message before write anything, again not something i want to add to guide, so let's wait till that part is fixed or made at least user friendly ;)
 
Like to add another vote of thanks for the terrific resource - makes having to hunt through the forums for newbie questions a thing of the past.
