Travelling in terran space has been a real pain in the ass since jump drive is useless in most terran sectors. However, recently I noticed there are a couple of jump beacons in saturn, Uranus sector. You know, the ones with laser tower just like Commonwealth counterpart.
However, I am unable to make use of them. After I press Shift+J to bring up the universe map, click the corresponding terran sectors fail to bring up the sector map, so I cannot target and lock to the beacons, thus unable to make the jump.
This happens to terran sectors with transorbital accelerators and no jump gates.
What's worse is my universal traders have no problem using those beacons, and when they do, the laser tower guarding the jump beacon turns on the UT and blow it up. I can only watch as I'm unable to send reinforcement due to aforementioned bug.
In one such incident, two of my UTs decided to jump to the same beacons in Saturn, they were instantly wiped out by the lasertower, however, before they die, they launched more than a dozen fighter drones, which managed to slowly grind the laser tower to dust, and in the meantime, reducing my terran reputation from mars access all the way back to revolutionary.
Sorry for the incredibly long post, this is just so damn frustrating. Is there a way for player to make use of the jump beacons in terran sectors? And out of curiosity, is there a way to tell universal traders to AVOID using them?
