Collection of Help pages for playing Oolite

Note that three different Ship's Manuals are on offer

The Ship's Manual in the Ship's Library OXP is the most recent
(and is readable in-game - and is adjusted to your ship and to your keyboard!)
The Pilot's Reference Manual was written for the Oolite Cobra MkIII
The Space Traders Flight Training Manual was written for the Classic Elite Cobra MkIII but is still good.



The in-game Tutorial & the in-game Expansions Manager have their own explanatory wiki pages.

Please note that your game download includes Mr Gimlet's advice to new pilots and the RS Reference Sheet: (search for OoliteRS - stashed away in the entrails of your computer - or File:OoliteRS rev1.8.zip): it is well worth printing out.
