Without further details of the exact problem(s), I don’t think we can help much.
But in general:
-
A mining laser requires you to have targeted (locked up) a suitable asteroid within the range of the mining laser module. The module also has to be ‘online’ to be usable.
-
A data analyzer requires a data container targeted and within range to be able to start the hacking mini-game.
Make sure you are not using the ‘Civilian’ versions of the modules. They may have restrictions outside of the tutorial area.
Some GM may be able to help better than us on the forum. You can contact them by submitting a ticket when you press F12 in the game and attach screenshots.
