Gas miner many problems

[subzerox0]

1)bought M size Gas Miner.
2) When ordering, I didn't seen neither transport drones, neither defense drones, nor gas drones.
3)Moved my gas miner to Trinity Sanctum 3, full of Helium.
4)can't give order to ship to dock at station. Neither mine scout ship,not the gas miner can't dock at station,if I'm not piloting the ship .
In Paranid Warf. I still can't find transport drones, neither defense drones, nor gas drones.
My Gas Miner is full, I don't know what to do. I can't even give order-to dock somewhere, if I'm not piloting the ship .
I can't find place or way to sell that gas-Helium, that is in Gas Miner ship.
Is there video of successful gas mining without own station?
Ship orders very cripple, I can't order ship to dock if I don't pilot it!

Do you have a pilot for your ship?

Does your ship have gas mining drones and maybe a cargo drone if it's a large ship?

What size is your ship? Wharfs are only for small/medium ships . Shipyards are for Large and Extra large ships. The Alliance of the Word shipyard doesn't service large ships on extra large ships just an fyi.

How many stars is your captain if you have one?


Basically get at least a 3 star pilot, then click on the ship, select information, behaviour tab, click on set default behaviour and select the highest level of mining command (sector automine, advanced automine, expert automine). Look to see if the ship can mine. If it can't then there may be no resources in the area. Same with trades.

They're called Captains on M class ships, I think, but that's the critical point, I suspect--about the only thing you can remotely order a ship with no captain/pilot aboard to do is sell the ship itself at a shipyard or wharf.
