Will updating to version 1.05 will automatically download the new manual, or do I have to get the manual manually?

So the first place I instantly go to read is the logistics section 4.5.1 (101) and this is what it says:
Truck Logistical Movement costs 12 Action Points (AP) per Dirt Road
Hex so with the 50 Truck Action Points generated by the Transport Hub I
Asset that means the 400 Truck Logistical Points it generated can be spread
out at full-force over 4 Dirt Road Hexes.

Is this correct? I thought truck movement cost 10 AP per dirt road hex. Did this change??? Because I thought it used to be 12 AP and then got changed to 10 AP.
See page 304 for Logistics update.

Ah, that's where the changes are.

I was having a look through the manual for information on the yellow border text in the Traffic dialog and in the Inial Points display but couldn't find it (I've forgotten what it is for).

MALEVOLENCE-

Like your avatar photo...played the heck out of the old Star Fleet series, both one and two...30+ years ago.

Believe this photo was the box cover from Star Fleet II where I had the chance to play the bad guys. (Krellans?)

Correct--the Krellan Commander box art. With my signature, it's the joke alter-ego I use for Distant Worlds 1/2 beta testing.

Someone in this forum is working on the Star Fleet series reboot as well. I'll let them identify themselves if they wish as they contacted me via PM.

As my first 4X was Santa Paravia en Fiumaccio (and Hamurabi), hand copied into basic, my gaming goes back a few years now.

It's definitely a must. Have a version of the manual on my HD but can't find a way to see if it's the latest version.
