UIs that have this much information/options to deal with will require learning.

The handbook pdf you propose would be looong and I doubt many would bother reading it (unless you enjoy that kind of thing).

Best way to learn the UI is hover over everything, click everything, and look over the hotkey/shorcut keys in the options.
Takes a few hours but EVE learning curve.

Actually having a PDF Handbook is a good idea, sure it would be long and contain a lot of info but that doesn't matter since a 'Table Of Contents' page would make it very easy to go straight to a specific topic.

I agree.
Especially for those of us old enough to remember when games came with paperback instruction manuals :D

However, if a person doesnt have the patience to hover over tooltips or browse through the shortcut/hotkey options, I doubt they will peruse a voluminous pdf.



There are some really cool and useful options buried in there many people dont know about, like the F11 system/constellation overlay, which is great for quickly getting ones bearings without opening the map proper or for navigating moons/belts/planets without the scanner/overview. I use it habitually.
