Do you mean the one where you deliver the dreamware? I can't think of any other ones except for maybe where you deliver the statue within a small time period? But I'm pretty sure Old Curie is in your start system right? If it is that mission you're talking about, then it's just random. Old Curie only has 2 landing pads, so you can either hover near the surface and hit the stardreamer for a while till one of the ships takes off, or just reload before you get to the system so that the seed is different. Still I'm not sure if we're talking about the same mission, I don't recall needing anything other than the default drive in the Saker Mk3 to win that race? Ceo-
