How do I use The Tractor Beam? (X3)

[Andre_ALmeida lms 2]

I've tryed to use the Tractor Beam (Isntaled on my Split Dragon) in an

asteroid (a big one) and he didn't move a metter (I've used 2 T. Beams).


Am I doing anything wroung?

Can the T.B. move big asteroids and stations?

And wich ship I use for instal the T.B.? (my Dragon looses very fast the

energy)

1 tb is enough for anything, just move very slow.

And they can move roids so long as its your's: ie, you have a station on it.

Tb's wont work with plain rocks or npc stations.

Quick guide.

You do have a mine on the roid? yes. good.

Front load TB, so reverse out with roid.
Aim for centre of roid, not the mine, press k to target.
Approach 3.5Km, fire TB, green glow. Good.
Stay at ZERO speed. Switch seta on and off until spinning stops.
Now reverse very slowly, 2m/s, 3m/s, 4m/s… let roid always catch up.
If its stable, engage seta.

Getting that beam centered so the rock won't rotate is the biggest thing.
