Home has a gold WATCH TUTORIAL under the subtitle, with the YouTube address under it.

New maps on Home (NEW!):

• Reverse (Easy) — leave the start orbit, cross the gold line the other way
• Drop Off (Extreme) — two gold lines, then sit the orbit on the running mass

MapMake is standardizing placement to position, angle, speed. Click where it sits, drag for heading and how fast. That is the same state the sim already flies: a point and a velocity. You are not drawing a hoop or typing an ellipse. You put a sample on the map the way a ship is already a sample, and the trajectory line is that coast. Moving bodies, ORBIT, HOLD, and REFUEL all aim the same way.

Also in this pass: middle-drag pans, left-click places. ANGLE steps by 1°. PLAY always shows your ship. Dragging a moving HOLD stays under the cursor. ATTACH is only on gates and a parked HOLD. Site MENU MapMake opens the editor. Inspect lists every entity under the fields — tap a row or X to delete; that list scrolls.

Shop: Magenta and Copper name colours. Crimson is the dark Extreme red. The extra Scarlet name is gone.
