How to Track Landmarks in Outbound
Pin landmarks, follow waypoints, stack up to 5 pins, and use Homing Boots for a real-time on-screen arrow.
The 30-second answer
- Open the map: M (keyboard) or Touchpad / Select (gamepad).
- Hover over the landmark icon.
- Press T (keyboard) or click RS (gamepad) to pin it.
- Close the map. A small waypoint icon appears at the top of your HUD.
Pair this with Homing Boots for a real-time on-screen arrow that follows the pin as you move.
Landmark types you can pin
- Signal Towers \u2014 7 total across the four biomes.
- Ruins / POIs \u2014 marked on the map after first sighting.
- NPC hubs \u2014 Coastline trader, Mountain hermit, etc.
- Custom markers \u2014 right-click any spot on the map to drop a custom pin.
Stacking multiple waypoints
You can keep up to 5 pins active. They appear as numbered tags in the HUD. The Homing Boots arrow always picks the closest one; tap the boot toggle key twice to cycle the priority.
Co-op landmark sharing
By default, pins are personal. The host can toggle Shared Pins in Map \u2192 Settings; shared pins appear in a different colour for all players. Useful for "meet here" routing without voice chat.
