First, let me just say how happy I am that 2.2 is finally here.
That said, the manual included with the download is still for 2.1. A LOT has changed since then and there are a ton of little things that as far as I know the game itself doesn't tell you so it would be nice if these things were documented somewhere. Things like which planets have more slots for space structures, which ones can build Golan IIIs, which ones are mining colonies, how much damage each weapon does against each ship type (that last point REALLY changed how I played 2.1 once I discovered how effective torpedoes were against capital shields).
Will an updated manual be made, or will this information be posted elsewhere such as the wiki?
Side note, I attempted to dive into the xml files to see which planets can build Golan IIIs, but there were only four planets listed under <Required_Planets> or something, and I could have sworn at least one planet not listed there could build a Golan III. If I want to try to find this information out myself in the files, where would I need to look?
