Collection of Help pages for playing Oolite
- For playing Classic Elite, FE2 & FFE see those respective categories for their help pages.
- For help with The Dark Side - see Category:Oolite scripting for more information.
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 2008 version - File:OoliteRS rev1.8.zip): it is well worth printing out.
