Hideout and radar
- Items for upgrades and crafts are visible in loot with their price; the “Notify” rule will tell you when a needed item appears in the raid.
- The “Quest” filter and the planner show what is still left to find — handy when an item is needed for both a quest and a station.
The radar map opens from a link in any browser: on a phone, tablet, laptop or second monitor. You can also share it with friends from your squad.
