Active waypoints in the Onscreen Waypoint Monitor (OWM) provide directional information to help you navigate to them. You may use the OWM's built-in distance (in metres) and directional arrows to locate any waypoint (WP) on your current planet. You may disable a WP by double-clicking on it in the OWM. To activate a WP that is in your Datapad without opening the Datapad itself, right-click the OWM and select any inactive WP. The Arrow indicators show you a literal direction to the WP. Turn your character until the arrow points straight up and you are facing your destination.
