Confusing map-orientation

[Todesgefahr]

Hi!

When there is a special route shown with yellow pointmarkers I often find myself going in the wrong direction even if I chose the most nearby of them. I belive that I head for Nr 1 (directly after take off) but instead I´m suddenly at Nr 2 so please explain how I shall think here?

 

Besides that I can´t notice any plane marker that shows where I am on the line. Can I chose such an option with a specific button or shall it really be so diffuse?

Not sure about the yellow point markers? but when viewing the map, press the letter "i" to show your plane icon to get a bearing of where you are.

Thanks, I will try that. With the yellow markers I mean those drop formed things which marks out a new direction.

The yellow "drop" show the next route waypoint on sky. In Single Missions (not QM, there are only 1 or 2 waypoint) notice that the "drop" position change when you reach that waypoint.

 

You can erase this "drop" be turn OFF "icons", in this case use the "Course Setter" on compass, the orange "V" on then - work in the same way, or go "Full Switch".
