Time savers are gold in this game, so why not. I'm at work so can't watch the video right now. Are the actions nefarious? Gamey? What's the conundrum?
Gamey. If it's the one I followed, you are given certain system criteria (ie a high population system in civil war) and go to HGE sources adn collect the G5's there. Log out completely (exit game) log back in and repeat for manufactured materials.
A few systems give to go to biological sites and get G4 raws, and Jameson's shuttle for data.
