The Mini-Map LIES

September 7, 2009

Lies

As you know, I’ve been frustrated many a time by trying to find clusters of bots cleverly hidden under the ground, and yet invisible. Or so the mini-map would have you believe. But a little bird told me that no, the little “above you / below you” dots are not accurate for things at very high altitudes… 4082 meters, for example.

So I picked an obvious cluster of green dots, transported there, and confirmed that I couldn’t see anything underground. Then I turned on my avi sensor, and flew up, and up, and up until I hit an invisible wall. It was easy enough to get around, it didn’t cover the whole region (so why did they bother?). A little further up, there it was… a box full of amorphous cloud bots.

So now you know. Happy hunting!
