This mission makes me feel something is definitely wrong with the join calculations. I used ~800m/s dV to break free of Mercury, ~5km/s to then manually plot a seemingly perfect intercept, as far as a zoomed in map can show...and to actually get the join, when I am clicking on the gunship in its own referential, the tool makes me burn 7km/s over the course of 34 days.
Another issue that made me waste a lot of time—the game will never offer you to merge into an orbit around L4, although it will offer you to merge into orbits around the planets. It's possible to manually place yourself in sync with L4, although that's not actually beneficial. For some reason I expected the orbit icon to appear when my trajectory came close to L4.
