You track those objects with the navigation tracking system, not the ship tracking system. Right click on their nav map icons to plot a waypoint to them and track position, distance/range, etc. In this game, you can track both types of objects simultaneously with different systems designed to give you the information you need for each type, rather than having to give up tracking one or the other.

aahhh! i knew there had to be something i was missing... is that in the tutorial section that covered the nav map? if it was, i guess i missed it... if it wasnt, maybe it should be?

thanks for the response, im really enjoying the demo... it boggles the mind that you can cram so much into 125 megs of space

General navigation principles are covered in the training, but the right click option (along with some other navigation options) is covered in much more detail in the instructions. I may add many additional details like that in an update, hopefully it won't be too overwhelming for players

Glad you're enjoying the game!
