Meson Armor Retardation's technology description says "the percentage of meson shots stopped by each layer of armor", but as you research, that percentage drops. It doesn't rise.

I'm guessing the number in the technology name refers to the percentage that is allowed through, but the description or the name of the tech should be altered.
Meson Armor Retardation is an Energy Weapon tech: researching higher levels makes your Meson guns better (it doesn't make your armor stronger). Higher levels of Meson Armor Retardation result in fewer shots being stopped by enemy armor. That's why the percentage drops with higher tech levels.

"{shipname} cannot lauch a {missilename} as no missiles of the required type are available in the ship's magazines."

(I can't tell you how many times I've seen this message and never noticed the typo.)

Also, there's a missing space in the name of the tech "Magazine NeutralizationSystem - 98% Chance".

This is technically a bug, but since it has no game impact, figured I'd put it here.

When you design a magazine, and you check off the "Show Next Tech" option to let you build a future prototype, Structural Shell shows up as an option for your armour type. It's by far the best option, with a very small size and a very low cost.

Fortunately, any (FP) module of this sort that you design can never be researched, so you can never actually add them to a real ship.

Not exactly a typo.
In the Class Design, there are the parameters 1YR and 5YR, while, in the Glossary, they are named as MU1 and MU5.

Version 2.5.1, in the Naval Organization window, selecting a single (stabilisation) ship within a fleet, its statistics say "JP Stablisations Completed": an "i" is missing.

the unicode � symbol (the one for unrecognised character) appears in 29 names in the database, instead of various umlauted characters, and some apostrophes.

When I assigned a ship to have a standing order to return to its entry jump point, but it's never left the system it started in, that shows up in the event log as an "Orders Assigned" event.

> Humans      Orders Assigned      Sol      GSC-03 Schiehallion 003 has a standing order to return to its entry jump point. However, the entry jump point is not known
> Humans      Orders Not Possible      Sol      GSC-03 Schiehallion 003 is unable to carry out its primary standing order (Survey Next Three System Locations) or its secondary standing order (Move to Entry Jump Point)

Weird that it'd be in the "Orders Assigned" category when the order couldn't be assigned.

The ship design component window in v2.5.1 inconsistently categorizes commercial components:
  • "Commercial Hangar Deck" is not in the "Hangar Deck" category.
  • "Commercial Damage Control" is not in the "Damage Control" category.
  • "Commercial Magazine" is in the "Magazine" category
A screenshot is attached.

In "Polish - New" Commander names there is a surname "Janczak (nazwisko)"

Not a typo strictly speaking but the United States name theme contains "Unavailable" as a last name, which I'm assuming is a mistake.

So the typo only happens when a standing order is applied to an unexplored JP?

It seems so.
I am seeing it only for unexplored JPs.

Just found a counterexample.

Even more peculiar... both "s t a b l i i s e" and "s t a b i l i s e" are present.  :)
