Hello.

I just don't understand how to use radar? How to know where's my/friend/enemys base? Or there's no chance to use it until you buy Radar Upgrade for 3500 Mars Dollars?

Cheers. Wink

Gotta haev upgrades to be able to use the radar properly. All you see now is the block you're on.

I've upgraded my radar to 4 directions. So how about now? I still don't understand how to use it. :?

I'm talking about Coordinates. Just don't know how to use them using radar.

The coordinates are shown on the upper right and the radar is on the lower left. They aren't really used together. The radar will tell you what kind of spaces are around you (once you get the first upgrade). The type of terrain is shown using the first letter of the type of terrain that it is i.e. C for Crater, D for Dunes, S for Settlements, O for Outpost.

Yeah, I know this one. I just wonder what those coordinates means...

the cords refer to the game "board'.  It is 400 spaces in each direction so there are no cords for the exact center (the exact center is the intersection of 4 corners of 4spaces)  but they refer to your distance from the center point.  Ex.  45W-72S means you are 45 spaces to the left of center and 72 spaces below the center.

X and y cord.s like in high school using graph paper.
X=N-S
Y= E-W
Note you will never be  43W-23E as that is impossible.
