Signals

The Signal is an item that directs the player to significant parts of the map.

It currently can only be obtained via the supply crates around and inside the Aurora in the Crash Zone.

Locations
By using the Signal, the player is notified of a:
 * Large Organic Mass (Grand Koosh or Grand Mushroom Tree)
 * Geological formation (Huge Pillar)
 * Geological formation (Balancing Rock)
 * Large organic mass (Coral Arch)
 * Land mass
 * Entrances to caves,
 * Heat signature

The nature and the exact distance to the object are displayed on the HUD like a visual text similar to the one of a Beacon is displayed on the screen just without the blip. It seems that each Signal is bound to a single object.

However by spawning in the Signal using the debug commands it only guides the player to the Safe Shallows unless you drop it and pick it up again, then the game counts it as a normal pickup.

The white cross model is currently displayed as a placeholder for now.

Current state
At the moment, the Signal does not have a proper texture; the player equips the Signal in their inventory as they would a compass or thermometer, once equipped, the beacon for that particular Signal will be visible. An item symbol, however, exists. The Signal takes up one inventory slot.
