recalling a marked spot on the map
« on: 11 January 2016, 22:13:59 »
I still have trouble being able automatically go to a place I have previously marked on the map.

I use F2 to mark, and told to enter a cell hint.

I can do that. A flag appears.

But when I want to go back to that position on the map, I can't.

I asked someone in the game once, and he said "F3". And F3 is what I remember seeing in the "hints"

But when I use F3, an X appears under my mouse pointer.

I would like to be able to mark a spot on the map, and then use a key to go back to that spot quickly.

In the MG option, under Keyboard Setup, F3 is set to "bookmarkremove". How do I recall the bookmark?

Hmm, I don't think moving the camera to a 'bookmark' location is not supported, yet.

All you can do so far is to place flags on the map with a note attached to each, and to remove them later on.

You can also ping on the map by holding X and clicking. But I think that's it for now.

Thanks, Tom. Can this topic be moved to "Feature Requests"?
