The link opens a real pan-and-zoom map maintained by a third party, with named locations and layers for scavenging, traders, loot containers, resources, fast-travel posts, shelters and wildlife. It is not a cropped picture or invented coordinates. Use the on-page filters there to avoid showing hundreds of icons at once.
Fast travel locations
The independent map currently identifies five fast-travel posts:
| Post | Corresponding location |
|---|---|
| Horizon | Horizon settlement |
| Solar Fields | Solar Power Plant |
| Church | Church settlement |
| Crow’s Nest | Crow’s Nest |
| Last Stand | The Last Stand |
In the recorded build, interact at a post to unlock it before expecting that post in your travel list. Fast travel may be unavailable in combat or severe storms. Check current game behavior after patches.
Where important early locations appear
| Location | Why players look for it | Map area / nearest hub |
|---|---|---|
| Horizon | Robyn, first hub, Feel the Heat | Post at Horizon |
| Bone Cave | Dog Days rescue | Near Horizon |
| Landscar Cave | Cave exploration | Near Horizon |
| Church | Trader and travel hub | Post at Church |
| Hunter’s Glade | Traders / exploration | Nearest Church |
| Solar Power Plant | Settlement and travel | Post at Solar Fields |
| Crow’s Nest | Safe zone | Post at Crow’s Nest |
| The Last Stand | Safe zone | Post at The Last Stand |
The external map contains more markers; this table is a starting location index, not a comprehensive loot-spawn atlas.
How to navigate in the game
In the October 2026 recorded default keybinds, M opens the map. You can zoom with your mouse wheel, and the Controls tab explains the keyboard/controller alternatives. Consult the recorded controls list if a remapped key differs.
The early walkthrough begins in the ravine, takes the short cave route to Horizon, then sends you to Bone Cave during Dog Days. For the materials needed on those routes see crafting; for the first player-built shelter see base building.
