Hi guys,

Can some one explain to me how to catch mineral packets with a freighter?

I've followed this in my test bed, but I can't seem to catch any:

Can some one better explain it? I've even positioned myself at an appropriate mark one or two years in the future, but always seem to be out by .1 light year (even using 400% zoom to place the ships)

Cheers

Bluechucky
