Sidewinder Owners' Manual (out of date)

[Michael Brookes]

Update by mod team 22 December 2014: see the v1.0 manual for a more up-to-date guide to Elite: Dangerous

Hi,

we're in the process of putting together a basic manual for the game so far and thought it would be fun to share it with you all. Note that this is WIP!

You can grab it here: http://elite.frontier.co.uk/downloads/Sidewinder_Owners_Manual_WIP.pdf

I expected someone to community to weight in and do that, so double my surprise to see this from FD. Nice work, thanks Michael!

This is much appreciated

 

[AnnuverScotinExile]

... and about time too !

 

[Rollo]

Thank you Mr Brookes. Certainly helpful for a pea-brain like me to remember all the controls.

 

[Flak]

Many thanks for this guys!

 

[Evilroco]

Thank Michael, I think that document may get a bit of use today

 

[Erik Marcaigh]

I'm definitely excited to see an early copy of the manual!

But I already have one correction... Page 23 of the PDF describes Asellus Primus. In the game, it's spelled "Asellus Primus", but in the text on the PDF, it's spelled (incorrectly?) as "Assellus".

 

[Dryad]

Very much appreciated, thank you! Really like the tone of the text so far - nice and atmospheric

 

[Kerrash]

Thanks!

All that needs now is a copy-protection system built-in

 

[tifosi]

Brilliant! Just what I needed.
