Sensor mystery

Thanks for the help but I've tried this if I'm getting what you're saying correctly. I have a capsule drive and a destination selected (Toad Skin from St. George for example) but nada when I fly at the green ring.... Is the problem maybe selecting a destination using the Location Finder mod? I'm pretty sure I've tried both ways of specifying a jump destination.

I'm in the free-form part of the game now and there's so much cargo, so little time.

Location finder won't set the L-point to jump when you fly through it manually.

You have to call up the map, and if you're close to the L-point the map will default to it as its focus. If you're closer to some other object you'll have to find the L-point on the map and zoom in on it.

Use the arrow keys to select a specific destination. The L-point is now "set". If you fly through it manually, it will take you where you told it to. (Note that if you autopilot through it, the a/p will set the jump destination itself, ignoring your setting from the map.)
