Something I'd like to see changed: position of waypoints

Featured Replies

I am having a hard time seeing where a waypoint diamond is located in the 3D world. I wish MS would come up with a more 3D-like solution as with the gold rushes.I just did an aerocache hunt and I suddenly noticed the 'diamond' that was showing me where the aerocache was. However, it looked as if the cache was almost below me but in fact I had to fly over 3 ridges before I could actually see it down in a canyon. The same goes for when I have to taxi somewhere: because the diamond doesn't become bigger or smaller I have no idea at ALL where it is in the 3D world.Anyone else also having problems with this?

Yeah it can be a bit puzzling at times, but if you continue to look at the diamond it routinely will show the distance to the waypoint in nm. I sometimes can use that to judge if it is just over the next ridge, or in front of it - still by guesstimating but it helps a little.
