    Something For Next Patch!

    I would just like one thing. A little compass maybe or something on the map which when you accept a mission that has a building you have to enter, it blinks or directs you to the mission area. Its kinda hard to go enter a mission when you spend the whole 3 hours of time looking for the building to go into and you cant find it. Just a though though.

    You mean like the little yellow mark that shows up on the compass? :P

    stevemelend66, you may not be familiar with the concept of uploading the map coordinates of your mission. To do this, press and hold the right mouse button over the mission icon. This will cause a little popup menu to appear. Then left click on the grid icon in the popup menu. This work on mission icons that are either in the mission terminal window, or in the missions window (ctrl-4).

    Uploading the map coordinates does a few things for you. First, you'll get an icon for the mission on the planet map (P). Second, when you enter the area where the mission is, you'll get a little yellow mark on your compass to give you an idea of which way to go. You may need to turn around in place until you can see the yellow mark. Third, if you open your mini-map window (ctrl-6), there will be a little "x" on the mini-map that you can see once you get close enough to the mission site. Note that for this "x" to show up, you must have the map loaded for that area. If you don't have the map loaded, you'll just see a grid in the window. You can acquire more maps by purchasing them from a map vendor, they require MapNav skill to use.

    As a suggestion, if you have a problem like this you may wish to ask about it in the Beginner's Corner forum.
