I'm suggesting that there be more ways to get the capital ship station waypoint, besides constructing the Reactor.

This could be as simple as making at least one of the other manufacturing missions reward the waypoint as well, such as the master computer, or really any of the larger parts would be fine. That way it's still only available to people who commit the many hours it takes to build one of those things (I'm assuming you don't want random pirates like me being able to run a few easy missions and get the waypoint to ambush other people or whatever - though I'd be perfectly fine with that myself).

The final assembly mission should also do this, so that if somebody manages to buy and build it from a kit without assembling any of the sub parts themselves, they'd still be able to see the waypoint once they finish. They'd be on their own for getting the goods into the station of course.

Basically I just don't think it should be dependent on crafting one specific part. I think people who would rather buy that part should be able to do so without losing the ability to get the waypoint.

I'm suggestion that shields.

Ive been toying with the idea of making a small mission chain added onto the rat side of difficult choices where you gather data from npc traders, infiltrate them etc and gain the location but as anyone who has written missions understands the whole damn thing is frustrating to do so I'm in a "down phase" for missions atm
