Actually, I did it on purpose and out of laziness.

I didn't want to alter Slicks original post (the lower part of my post) but then again I wanted to make clear that people should not post in the sticky thread. Slick had already posted it and I just copied it. I will not do this double post next time the FAQ is updated, I promise!

1.5.3 In Simultaneous games, you will lose your remaining movement points when moving into an
unexplored system. Your ship will also stop and lose movement when encountering an enemy, but this can be changed under Empire Options.

you can order your ship to jump and after that to move in the new system - you can nearly always tell where your ship will jump

Is there a way to download the newbie faq?
Thanks.

It is located in the topmost sticky thread. You can save it as a text file. Although the links won't work, they can be saved separately.

How do you save it as a text file? I tried copy/paste and that included the background.

The easiest way (but not the nicest):

Click on the link, then Click on File/Save As, select txt as the file type.

This method will save all the unnecessary text on the screen and might need to be "cleaned up"

A better way:

Click on the link, select only the FAQ text, copy, paste into notepad or similar text editor, then save the file from there.

You can also try the printer-friendly Version (link to it is in the bottom of the page).
