Thread: Waypoint Monitor
Hey guys, i just found out about the waypoint monitor. It brings up a small window you can drag around your screen and it tells the distance between you and all of your active waypoints.
Just go to the options window, misc tab and click on the windows monitor button. I clicked off the on screen arrows as well, as you won't need it with the monitor.
This makes it a lot faster and easier to determine who has the closest waypoint in a group.
Not sure if everyone already knows this, but it was pleasant news for me tonight. ![]()
Yeah, its a pretty nice device.. after my group gathers up all the missions that they can, I just instruct them to email me the waypoints... then we just move to the furthest mission on one side, and "Arc" through the rest, half-circling the city where we got the missions initially.. makes for a great pace of action/rest.. and usually, the missions are spread out just far enough, hence a great pace..
you can also right click on the Waypoint box and select your waypoint from the list. Quicker than opening up the Datapad. Learned that from Tuesday Tips! ![]()
