[Suggestion] Unlimited Waypoints! Player Icons! Drawing!
I would love an update for the map. For example, I've posted a rough image (Using Icarus Intel as a template) to show how I'd like it to look. For the moment I've made player icons, waypoints, Hunting spots, Campfires (Home/Temporary Camp) and Routes. Drawing on the map could be fun for planning routes. Drawings can last up to 60 seconds. The Blue Player has put down some extra waypoints for himself and his friends to see. I think The Beacon tool should be removed. It's a Tier 4 tool and if playing solo it takes a LONG time to make. By the time I get to making composites, I'm pretty much done with the level already. If there was say, a Tier 2 (Machining Bench) tool where you could make "scrap beacons" the size of the cave scanner, you can bury them in the ground or something and they'll show on the main map, that'll be cool. (Located at C4 and F2) Anytime you place a bedroll it should be automatically marked on the map, as long as it's sheltered!! Thank you for coming to my TT.

JackRoute planning with automatically switching waypoints might be tricky, but it would make a lot of sense. This could be a whole lot of side system where you could create/maintain routes.
Auto map points with icons is a great idea, using the bedrolls is probably the easiest and most obvious way. -

Oak@Jack I used the image for the bedroll at first but it was hard to see on the map so I went with the campfire icon haha. Creating routes would be SUPER helpful for when Vehicles come out, so you have a trail on the map to look at that you can safely drive around an area without falling off a cliff lol

JackYes, the campfire icon is great. I meant it in a sense that when you drop a bedroll, it would automatically add a map marker. (also, all or most map markers should be visible on the HUD compass)
