What exactly does the COMPUTER PLAYER DIFFICULTY Setting and COMPUTER PLAYER BONUS do?

I have never figured them out. Basically CPD is an unknown to me. CPB is how badly the Computer player will cheat.

Setting CPD to anything less than "hard" will disable some of the AI's ministers (it makes the AI even less able to do what a human can)

I Really need the info on this.

Also the revised Game Guide is no at 40 pages.

This does not include the Race info or any of the component, facility, ship info.

Nor does it include the 25 turn walk through.

LOL, I have my work cut out for me. Why you ask, because I just want to do it.

There is no way I can take all of the info about this game and use it in this guide, so I am focusing on the basics that the game manual does not. Things like I have posted below and more.

What are the best Advanced Racial Traits, why? What are the best Advanced Traits, and why?

so on and so on. Hell if I don't know the answer to these, and I have been playing since day one of the offical beta, then I guess they are not really all that important, but still I would like to know.

Bonus:

Low: x2 resources, x1.5 SY rates
Med: x3 resources, x2 SY rates
High: x5 resources, x3 SY rates

I am certain about the resource bonuses, and fairly sure about the SY rates...

I would like to see a listing of the quick keys. I came into a situation yesterday where my mouse got stuck and was only going up and down. I would have loved to press whatever key it was to save the game before I reset. I looked through the original manual, but I couldn't find a listing. I thought there was one, but I don't know where to find it. So I had to re-boot my computer and replay that turn. So if you could include that, I'd appreciate it.
