Np, just make sure you are clicking the gray buttons on the side of the screen, every button and lever you see is interactable. Heres a quick briefing of what you need to do to collect samples: Make it to the interest point on the map, take a picture of it using the top monitor button on the side of the screen, if you are above the fossil, lower down the cage until you hear a little (tick) sound effect. Double check the map to see if the sample that you are collecting is grayed out or not, if so, you can bring the cage back up and there should be a sample in there.
