Summary0024822: Global Command Augmenter tip out of date
DescriptionThere is a tip in the 'For Returning Players' category named 'Global Command Augmenters (GCAs) Are Critical For Defending'. As of v2.800 this is now heavily out of date: GCAs no longer exist and further battlestations can no longer be found, for instance. It should probably be updated to be something along the lines of what was written for the 2.800 update regarding GCAs, reproduced below for convenience.

There may be further inaccuracies in the help tips elsewhere but this one jumped out at me as quite significant.


Update text on GCAs:
You start with TWO battlestations, and can never get any more of them. You can choose to capture Citadels, which are way more expensive but also way more useful. GCAs are gone, and Turret Schematic Servers (TSSes) and Other Defensive Schematic Servers (ODSSes) are out there instead.

The hack for a TSS or similar can be done 2-3 times, and gets more dangerous and also more expensive each time you do it (per building). You get to choose ONE line of turrets or other defenses to add to your kit, and then it rerolls for a whole new set of choices after that. Most of the time, your hacks will benefit all of your command stations AND your battlestations and citadels, but you can also do special hacks that give extra ship cap for that turret line to just one battlestation or citadel, instead.

TLDR: You're no longer so flooded with information about new things you just got ("here are four new turrets, all at once"), and you can also choose specific units that you want to acquire, with some limitations. In other words, your empire is designed with much more intention, and there are no "useless units" cluttering things up all over the place.
