Summary0021410: Should the "Getting Started" section explain basic Fleet mechanics?
DescriptionNoticed it doesn't really go into that, and the "For Returning Players" bit which does, tells you to skip it if you didn't play the original.

There's a number of people who are confused, and I know there's the Mission system to come, but maybe we need something for now?

I'm definitely not sure what they're confused about -- the getting started section doesn't talk about fleets specifically as a single topic, but it talks about all those things with how to get more ships, how to get stronger, what to look for in targets, etc. I'd like to add to this for players who are confused, but I'd need to know what their points of confusion are so I can add a new topic without just being duplicative.

Factories are not mentioned in Getting Started, and I have seen someone think the Flagship produces the units instead (this is what made me change the description on Factories to hopefully better explain how they work).

I recall having more but...appear to have forgotten...apologies...I looked through them again and, now wonder if the people asking all the questions haven't looked at that page for whatever reason?

That's a really good one -- "how are ships built?" It's okay, we can build out more as we need to. Thanks!

Thanks!

* Added a detailed new "How To Construct Ships and Structures" tip to the Getting Started section of the game tips.

* Added an even-larger new "AI War 2: The Full 101-Level Explanation" tip to the Getting Started section of the game tips.
** Thanks to RocketAssistedPuffin and _Zorbaz for writing this! If anyone has anything else they think we should add or change, please let us know.

* Added a new "How To Scout New Planets" tip to the Getting Started section of the game tips.
** This does seem rather important.
