Engineers Why?

[Kayin]

I started playing again with 2.2, was enjoying myself. Figured I'd try engineering a larger FSD. I'm up to grade 3 with Farseer. I need Strange Wake Solutions. Ok, I got some of those when I went scanning high wakes the other day, I need some more, it shouldn't be that hard.

..4 hours later..

- No luck at a nav beacon scanning wakes
- No luck at multiple RES sites scanning wakes
- No luck at populated stations scanning wakes

Guys. Come on. Guys. Pls. Guys.... Pls.

1. Really? Is there a way I can beat the RNG fairy with a hammer? I actually want this as a minigame. Punch that little &$@# right in her %$&# donald trump style.
2. Why are there soooo many materials used in so few blueprints?
3. WHY DO HIGH WAKE SIGNALS KEEP DISAPPEARING WHEN I GET ALMOST IN RANGE!!!!! AAAHHHH!!!!!!
4. I was just starting to enjoy this game again...

Distribution centres I find best for wake scanning, they are often found around a planet when a system is in a famine state. Jump in, 3 type 9s and waves of sidewinders jump in and out every few minutes, keep at it until you have what you need!

Been a wee while since I played but I had no trouble finding these when sat outside a busy station at a high population wealthy agri I work from.
