Hi all,
I have been away from the game for a while and just came back recently. I was doing missions yesterday and the first one went great. The second one didn't work. I got distracted by the phone before the probe landed and when I got back it said the probe already landed. My question to all you fine bh folk is this: Is there a way to find the darn probe once it lands?
I didn't see the crash/explosion. I ran around for like 5 minutes looking for it. I tried tabbing to see if it would highlight, and I tried using my radar but didn't see any dots I couldn't account for. Is there some trick to finding it? I had to abort the mission and go get another one which I haven't done yet. If I can't call for a second probe, maybe they could have it land and give a waypoint? Is it a bug?
I appreciate any help I can get
Thanks
Griv.

Press CTRL+M and look for a white dot. It should be in range of about 100m. If you don't find it... travel! Then you are able to relaunch one.

I use control+m to bring up my overhead map, and the droid shows up as a white triangle.

Keep your overhead map on Ctrl+M - the probot will show up as a white dot. Also helps to do it on semi-even terrain.
