Manual update

Post by Falcor CC » Mon Mar 31, 2025 1:16 pm

Hi!

As a newcomer I've learned a lot from the manual and from mentors. However, the former could definitely use an update. For example: I'm promoting to d5 and I've heard a lot about reduced purchases, but they're nowhere to be found in the manual. Its general layout is a little messy too for me.

If an admin is open to it, I'd love to take a look at where the manual can be improved from my perspective and work with you to give it an update.

Very good idea.

Some time ago, there was even a special thread for that:

Manual/Tutorial (Help needed)

You can comment there, and, if you want to, you can even re-write parts of the Manual and then we will upload it to the game.

Could you update the FPC member list in the manual (Fairplay -> FPC)? I am still mentioned although I've been out for mor than half a year already.
I didn't mean to say it. But I meant what I said.

I don't see FL there. Oh, found it now, there's another place....
Reduced purchases, as far as I know they now exist in D6 too?

Anyway, we need Hansa magic for the link to the old site, maybe there is something there left?

Thanks!

But after all nothing useful there.
I think, or thought at least, that at some point there was an explanation somewhere, maybe in the flash version? But of course don't know if and how that can be retrieved.

Mangi asked me for this Schnellstart/FAQ text some years ago.
I think he copied the whole text I sent him here - if you didnt see it till now - maybe there is something there that you are looking for.
but maybe all this is already in the new manual - didn't check
