Do NOT USE THE TRACTOR BEAM as a weapon..
Activate it via "Toggle Tractor beam" a key you should remap.
It's about 1:30 a.m. EST and I just logged off after using the tractor beam on the disabled freighter. I had been apprehensive about this part of the quest, having read that it wouldn't work. So I loaded the tractor beam as weapon 1 and when I targeted the freighter I pressed 1. I got the "incrementing count" message, or something like that,and in a short while I got "Mission Successful" ... I don't recall if the freighter blew up or not, as I was being attacked and didn't even have a weapon loaded, so I hyperspaced out.
So tomorrow I'll pick up the three samples and go from there.
Of course now I hear that although this part of the quest has supposedly been fixed, the part where you have to escort someone is bugged. We'll see.
