Other mistake: Private Pyle seems to be just as large in the bathroom scene with Hartman as he is in the Jelly Donut scene. In reality, it's just the same actor, but in the film's plot it implies he went through 12-22 weeks of boot camp under Hartman without ever losing any weight, even though Hartman was specifically trying to get him to.

Suggested correction: There's a simple answer: Hartman failed to get Pyle to lose weight. Technically, Hartman was trying to get Pyle to graduate, regardless of his weight, which was achieved.

Other mistake: The Awoken are always hostile, alien, and unknown to the player character, even if the player character is an Awoken.

Other mistake: At the start of Rimmer's exam, the invigilator orders the students to "turn over their papers and start". Rimmer reads one side of the paper, then turns it over to read another question. The back of the paper should have been blank as otherwise there would be no point asking the students to keep the papers face down before reading the questions. (00:15:30)
