I have added descriptions for truck fixes and added fixes from the internal 1.17.0.24 build to the 1.17.0.25 fixes.

One thing which wasn't mentioned in the original announcement is that the Successfully docked achievement works in the 1.17 beta - it was broken in 1.16 because of the new port in Gdynia (for Scandinavia) which can't be accessed at the moment, the code now counts with this case.
