Flags are markers that can be placed in the world by the astronaut, useful for marking strategic positions or locations the player will need to return to. Flags appear on the mini-map as a cross in the same color as the flag.
Flags come in five colors, all of which can be placed and removed freely by the astronaut. They will always flow in the direction of the wind, which can be helpful for finding one's way when the mini-map is unavailable.
When programming, flags can be used as a point of reference for bots, as the instruction radar allows bots to know the exact position of a flag of a given color.
Notes[]
- At any given time there can exist only 5 per color in a given level. To create another you must remove one.
