Topic: Distress Beacons.

Not sure if this is a 'bug' but am I supposed to be able to see a deployed distress beacon no matter how far away from it I am?

It was a Test Distress Beacon.

Re: Distress Beacons.

No, they have a signal masking of 100. Although this is only visible in the deployed beacon's info.

Re: Distress Beacons.

The one I saw pop up on landmarks was over 11000m away so I guess it is a bug.

Re: Distress Beacons.

It's one of those missions were you get a beacon thingy.

Re: Distress Beacons.

Indeed, those don't have a masking value. Will fix, thx.
