TThere are 2 small ropes on the outside of the fly which I can't find connections for. No direction on this.
Then, there are also 2 of the same type of small ropes attached with a clip at the base of the fly. Where are these things supposed to be attached to?

They are for guying out the sides of the tent so they don't curve in from the outside. The ones with hooks you can attach to your edge of tent there before staking and the other can be guyed to the stake or farther out if necessary. But they are overall necessary for proper functioning of the tent.

I think you are supposed to tie them to a stake and stake down the fly. In the many nights I have spent in the SL1, I have never done that... never saw the benefit.

are they loops? They could be used for guying out the tent perhaps?
