Hi all,

Thanks to a previous post we now know that the green dots are avis in the sim on approx the same level as each other, and the 'T' shapes are avis that are above you, and inverted 'T' shapes are avis below you. I have now noticed a few pink dots on my mini-map. Does anyone know what these are? Is there any definitive guide to the legend used on the Mini-Map?

Regards

Rock

I've never seen pink dots! I've seen red ones... never pink though.

If you've ever teleported to a landmark or from a profile pick or classified, and your teleport was redirected to a telehub or teleport landing point, then the red dot is where your teleport target was. Like the green dots, it is a T if your target is above you and an upside-down T if your target is below you.

Where did you find pink dots?

These are probably objects owned by (deeded to) a group you are in.

The definitive guide.... Hip hip hoera for the knowledge base :)

Meni thanks, that is just the answer i was looking for. I have used the Knowledgebase so many times and not found what i was looking for, that I grew cynical and stopped looking. I think just for courtesy sake I will check there before I post a question to the forum in future.

:-)

It took me a few weeks before I found out that the fuchsia dot on my minimap was the remote control of our tv set :)
