Navigation point
Talk0this wiki

Added by DdarkreaperA Navigation point, also referred as nav point and waypoint, is an indicator feature that shows the direction of the objective or destination.
Overview
Edit
Navigation points commonly appear in a player's screen in objective multiplayer games, such as Capture the Flag, Oddball and VIP. Navpoints also appear in co-op mode, indicating the position of teammates. They are present in Campaign, and are placed if the player must reach a destination (in some cases, a vehicle, such as Sergeant Johnson's Warthog from Halo 3), and also if they player does not know where to go.
In Halo: Combat Evolved, the waypoints are colored orange in single player, and red or blue in multiplayer, depending on the objective. In Halo 2 and Halo 3, they are blue when playing as John-117, and purple when playing as Thel 'Vadamee. Often, waypoints have a distance indicator, in meters, showing the player how far away the waypoint is from their position.
Trivia
Edit
- In the Halo: Reach Beta, a glitch caused the waypoint symbol to be filled with random icons.
