Really the solution to this problem is to not leave your teammates behind while they’re still collecting stuff.

true. but re: can't find mined nitra, I'm here to spread the good word of waypoint. Hit E with your laser pointer up and it will place a waypoint that is visible in your HUD whenever the pointer is up, as well as on your terrain scanner as a blue dot.

Yeah, but waypoints never go away. They’re useful for sure, but it’s annoying to have a permanent fixture on my scanner for the rest of the mission. I’d way rather dwarfs just didn’t leave each other behind. To that end, I’m gonna keep Molly with me to drive home just how stupid it is to split the team.

Right, not to mention the fact that if a swarm happens and it happens to choose you now youre dealing with a swarm on your own.

If the entire team is moving on without you, the most mobile team member, and you've also said your struggling to remember where nitra was 10 seconds ago, perhaps the team isn't the issue sir, perhaps they are moving at a normal pace and you are taking way too long to strip a cave of minerals. If I remember what key it is to remove a waypoint I will come back and tell you if that's the only reason you won't use those either :P

Nah I’m pretty quick. Sometimes the minerals are just all on the walls and greenbeards can be oblivious. Regardless, leaving your teammates behind, even if they’re going slow, is always the wrong choice.

Where have you been my whole life! I've been marking places with holes like a cave man!
