Unable to register Antenna
« on: December 10, 2012, 07:17:03 pm »
I went to the New Urengoy Antenna, stood for 5 minutes under it without being registered.

Anyone else managed to get this (or any other Antenna) registered?

At the bottom-left of the screen, there are three small bar showing the connection status with the nearest antennas. If its red - than you have to register it, otherwise you are fine.

The higher bar (move mouse over it and it will show the connection %), the closer you are to the antenna.
Some places are covered with one antenna, some with two or even three.
Btw, there are some "dead" places, where none of the antennas hits some places. But those are not yet included in current territory of Survival.

If I read this right each bar = 1 antenna?
So when we have 20 antennas - we will have 20 of these bars extending across the bottom of the screen?

Would it be better to have 3 bars - 1 for strength of total signal, 2 to help indicate which direction it is coming from?
e.g.
. . .
x . .
x x .
x x .
x x x

would indicate a fairly strong signal to the left of the player

. . .
x . .
x . x
x . x
x x x

indicates the signal is to the players right

. . .
x . .
x x x
x x x
x x x

indicates the signal in front of the player

This gives player the opportunity to find antenna without having to look up map references.

I imagine those 3 bars will work off the 3 antennas your nearest to after we're in the 20+ antenna world.

I have used those 3 bars to navigate to an antenna while running someone there to register since the map didn't work while Alpha was still up.

My understanding of the signal dots is the same as Teesa's. I'm pretty sure I've located where the third one will be once it is in the playable area by paying close attention to the dots.

Re: Unable to re-register Sars West Antenna after map went dead
« Reply #13 on: December 21, 2012, 06:41:24 am »
I'm having problems trying to get the Sars West Antenna to re register.  After I was in Sars and went into the Storage Building and
came back outside, I noticed that my Map went all fuzzy and then went completely black grey and it said the connection from the antenna has
been lost.  This also happened to my mom Grambo when she came outside the buildings.  We both tried to log out and in to see if this would
fix the problem, but this wasn't the solution.  We both then ran all the way back to the Sars West Antenna location Lat 52.43 deg N, Lon 94.26 deg E,
Altitude 235 m, Local time: 2068 December 21, 00:25:41 , Server time: 2068 December 21, 10:25:52 and stood underneath it for quite a while, but
nothing happened and the Map still said the connection from the antenna has been lost.  We both again logged out and in with out any success.

Now the bottom left corner where the 3 different signal notifications say this:
first set to the left says: PDA Connection online Signal strength 100%
middle set says:  PDA Connection online Signal strength 4%
Last set to right says: PDA Connection offline Signal strength 2%


I wouldn't mind having my map back because not even the fog of war is working or nothing to do with the map.

Thanks and God Bless,
