Map Locator coding

Seeking some advice...

I've come across some helpful sites that quote map location co-ordinates for plaques/badges, etc. (e.g. Plaque - Atlas 5

A bit green of me to ask, but does anyone know how to activate the map locator reference to the game screen

Thanks

/loc is the command you're looking for; will print your location in the chat window.

Thanks - much appreciated.

you could also check the Keybindings screen in the Options ...
or bind it yourself: /bind L /loc

But to make it work you would:

/bind <key> "loc"

You don't need the leading slash in binds...

On vidiotmaps.com there is a useful little download where you get a map overlay with all the badges, plaques and enemy ranges. It is harmless and just adds extra details to the map when you call it up. In conjunction with /loc and the coordinates it is really helpful as some of the badges are up high, down low or inside things. Ones I had trouble with were the easter egg in faultline and one in Dark Astoria.

'Tis true of course, however it is needed with more complex commands and using it always when describing how to do it for people who don't know, means that there are less chances of confusion later on.
