I'm trying to play a Progen Privateer (since they weren't in the game initially) and am having some trouble with one of the starting missions. I'm supposed to find this freighter, the instructions tell me to go scan the mars gate (but not to go through it) which I do. I'm told the freighter left to the east and to investigate some odd energy spikes. I have no idea how to do this, there is a giant astroid with a waypoint/warp I can do to it to the "east" on the map, but when I go there, I find nothing. I forfeited the mission and am going to try and restart it, in case it's a bug with spawning something, but in case it's not, can anyone tell me how this one is supposed to work?
If it's not doable, no biggie, I can just go with one of the normal classes that were in the game originally, and presumably that should work better.
