Using the GuideBot

With massive, winding tunnels that are often more confusing than anything else, it's not difficult to get lost inside the huge world of Descent 3. But, that's what the GuideBot is for. Pressing F4 during gameplay brings up the GuideBot's initial menu; from there, you can rename him if you like or release him from your ship.

The GuideBot's biggest asset is the ability to seek out the location of the next mission objective. Once he's been released, hit F4 again to bring up the menu, which you'll notice is quite larger this time. From here you can perform all sorts of functions, such as ask the GuideBot to seek out shield or energy power-ups and, as mentioned, location of mission objectives. Keep in mind sometimes he can't reach the objective because the path is blocked for whatever reason (usually a locked door). Additionally, sometimes he'll lead you to the objective, but you'll have to perform some action or solve some puzzle in order to complete the task.
