Space missions don't work pls help

[Sex Master Menachem]

Every time I try to start a space mission on any planet it never works. I've been in both turret guns on both capital ships and can't figure out why I cant start them. The final gold bricks need are the one from the space mission. Anyone have any ideas?

Space missions require you to be in a space ship shooting the gold brick in space to start the missions.

Ya i do that but the game wont let me shoot the gold bricks and start the missions

You need a space ship with the (Rapid Shot/Bolt) tag as those are the only ones that can fire fast enough to overheat gold targets. "The Halo" is one such ship and can be bought at the CIS cruiser hanger.

I find myself suffering a different, yet related problem to this discussion. I am right on the cusp of a 100% file. I have unlocked every character, attained every red brick, and gotten true jedi and all 10 minikits on every level. The only gold bricks I am missing to craft the final vehicle and finally 100% the game are on two different planets suffering the same issue. The gold bricks will not spawn on their respective space missions and I am unable to find a way to make them do so. I do not really want to try to 100% the game from a different file, therefore any alternative suggestion would be appreciated.
