Navigation System

The  is a Ragnarok Online feature that allows players to easily find non-player characters and certain points in the in-game world. The has been a long-overdue indispensable tool for RO players.

Using the
You can access the via the drop-down menu on the Basic Information window or by using the /navi command. Clicking on the Navigation button in the drop-down menu will bring up the Navigation window. You can then type in the name of the NPC or map you wish to seek out and click the button on the bottom right of the window to activate the arrow display. Then you simply follow the arrows to your destination.

The can take you through portals or advise you to utilize the nearest NPC warp so feel free to enter the coordinates of your actual destination. The system will calculate the quickest way to get there whether it's through several maps or with the help of a NPC warp. Once you reach your destination, a dialogue box will pop up to declare that you have arrived. When you click [Okay], the will disengage and close until the next time you use it again.

Utilizing Coordinates
Every map in RO is laid out in an X,Y graph format with usable areas designated in cells. Each cell corresponds to distinct X,Y coordinates that can be found using the /where command in the Chat Box.

The command format for utilizing coordinates in the is

"/navi mapname X/Y"

where mapname is where you enter the technical name of the map (e.g. izlude for Izlude or mjolnir_05 for Mjolnir Map 5) and X and Y are the number coordinates.

Navigation Commands

 * /navigation or /navi (ie. /navigation prontera 100/100 shows the route to coordinate 100, 100 within prontera). This command, by default, will show airship and other transportation routes that cost zeny.
 * /navigation2 or /navi2 (ie. /navi2 prontera 100/90 1/1/1 shows the route to coordinate 100, 90 within prontera). The 1/1/1 represents Scroll, Zeny and Airship respectively where 1 makes the navigation show routes that use these items/currency/service and 0 makes the navigation system to not show these routes.
 * $$all (shows all entries. Can be categorized by types)
 * $$lvXY (Searches for monsters at XY level, where XY represents the monster's level)
 * $$lvXY~MN (Searches for monsters within XY ~ MN level range, where XY and MN represents the monster level range)

Dialogue Links
With the implementation of the, links have been added to NPC dialogues to further make use of the tool. Clicking on the link will instantly activate the display arrows to send you on your way to the intended target.

NOTE: Only NPCs implemented after the update have links in their dialogues. Older NPCs will not have links at all.

Troubleshooting
Occasionally, you will run into a ''Failed to set the arrived area! '' error message when using the. There's good reasons for this even though the system doesn't make it clear.

You're too close to the destination cell
 * The can only activate if you're at least 10 or so cells away from the cell you're going to. (Since if you're that close to it, why would you need to be navigated to it?) Check your location using the "/where" command and compare the coordinates to your destination cell coordinates.

Your destination is a dead cell
 * If you indicate a coordinate that leads to a dead cell, the system won't take you there (since you can't be on dead cells). A simple fix for this is to adjust the destination coordinates by a digit or two until you indicate a usable cell.

Currently on iRO, the does not work on the Dewata maps.
