Yeah, buddy. I've got a list of typos just waiting for ya! lol - seriously, though: it's an excellent manual and (IMO) a *must read* for those purchasing this game.

Trust me, it's extensive. Maybe not quite Falcon 4.0 extensive, but it most definitely is not slouching in the detail department.

i noticed thomamon mentioned that the auto-sim (sim to X) included a sim to trade deadline option but that it actually stops the day *after* the deadline.

seems that the usefulness of this function would be increased if the game stopped on the day *before* the deadline. that way, one could evaluate the trades and make/accept some last minute deals. my vote anyway...

Yeah, that's a bug, I believe...

humm, ya me too. The game will be out in less than two months and some major features are missing in this build. I wonder if we will see a delay in the release of the game. If not, thats kinda pushing it close, imho.

Like I always said, we're running this close to the wire but we have the date set and we're going to do everything in our power to get there!

Man, and I was hoping that the release date was set too cautiously so you guys could give us a major surprise treat with an early release. Oh well, I'd rather have the finished version.
