Fuel harvesting HOW? PLEASE
build Fuel harvester. Make sure fuel tanks are empty. Place in orbit over a gas giant with Sorium
That’s it? I have been looking for a 'Harvest on/off. Thanks
Its the same for orbital miners, once they are in orbit they do their thing

So automated in every sense of the word, just tanker it to colony. Looking at this bewildering game, I must have misjudged the only vessel in the game to not be micro-managed
Which vessel types are you micromanaging? There might be automation options that you don’t know about.
None so far. I’ve only been playing for a couple of weeks. I get as far as the harvesters and then I’m stuck, Standing order is go to source of Sorium and then … I don’t see another command to activate the collectors. It’s been doing my head. But with the labyrinth of commands I assumed there should be a start button. Thank you, maybe now I won’t run out of fuel.
You will still probably run out of fuel. Running out of fuel is very common

Although having a ship run out of fuel adds to the story. The Martian, but stranded in space. Especially if you have to quickly research and build a ship capable to rescue the crew before they all die.
Happy memories!! 
I’m assuming I have a continuing search for fresh fuel. I come from Distant Worlds, (not literally,) and there we have endless fuel at locations, and components are ready made. That and Stellaris are ‘arcade versions’ by comparison. I lose HOURS in this game, luckily I’m retired and not much else to do with my days
