I think there's a mistake on page 89 of Scarlet Sorcerer. The bank over left option (action i) points to page 159, but page 159 in both books is a single-player page.
I have a paperback copy of Scarlet Sorcerer that directs you to turn to page 259 for the bank over left option. I think this is the correct page, since it appears to be the mirror opposite of page 194 (the bank over right option).

Hi Tiefling
Yes, it looks as though it's a transcription error. I have fixed and re-output the file, but I'm having major problems connecting to the projectaon.org SFTP login right now; as soon as I can, I'll upload the updated file.
Thanks for the tip! :-)
Edit: The file was updated on 19th July.

There are a pile of errors in these two books. I had a little glimpse through the two of them side by side and by the time I got to page 30, I had counted about 6 or 7 errors. Most of them have the enemy ship in the wrong attitude, but some of them have the player's view angle wrong. Page 4 even fails to show that you're firing at the enemy for one of them, which is a pretty fundamental error. And then there's the whole extra front damage check box on the EE's ship on the damage sheet, 11 instead of 10. And there are a couple of other errors in the single player mission for one them as well.

I made a list of all the errors I found. There are over a hundred between the two books, the majority of them are viewpoint/attitude mismatches between the two books, looking out of the front right in one book and seeing the right in the other book, that sort of thing, although I think some of them may be deliberate.

Are you absolutely sure there are all these errors? I can see there being a couple of errors here and there, but it's hard to believe that there are 100+. Unless I've done a crap job in transcribing them, of course!

Hey, uncle, are you talking errors on Dever's part, or errors on PA's part? Are you double checking them against your own copies or something?

Oh, I mean errors on Dever's part, but I did encounter another error like the one mentioned earlier: on page 167 of Emerald Enchanter, the Half-loop manoeuver should direct to page 246, not 146.

I fixed the transcription error yesterday (146 -> 246 in Section 167). Thanks for the heads up!

Oh, Ok! We thought you meant there were over a 100 errors in our transcription! Well not OUR transcription... Outspaced's (god that's awkward to say) trancription.
