Imported 1.50 manual and patch work

This manual was originally developed for the MOO2 1.50 patch. Its historical material provided a detailed compatibility reference for the version 2.00 manual, but it does not by itself describe current behavior.

The following credits are retained from that work:

  • Darza, for his invaluable contribution to the 1.50 patch project.
  • Lord Brazen, for his 1.40 patch, which was incorporated into the 1.50 patch.
  • Andrey Tyukov, for fixes studied and incorporated by the 1.50 project.
  • Dmitry Yulmukhametov, the author of the original OCL.
  • Nirran, for his work on OCL Improved, which provided information used by the 1.50 project.
  • TF8, for the map-generation tool that provided information about game data structures.
  • Grig De Griz, for the MoO2 Workshop editor suite used to update help text and images.
  • Epirasque, for work on Lua code and scripts.
  • All users who reported bugs, shared design suggestions, and offered other advice that helped polish the patch.
  • The MOO2 1.50 Project team, for the patch and the manual from which this documentation developed.

Version 2.00 restoration

Version 2.00 is the work of the contributors to the orion2re restoration effort. Thanks go to everyone who contributed implementation, documentation, testing, bug reports, and compatibility research. Individual code contributions are recorded in the project's commit history.
