    Is there a way to mark raw material locations or list them so that you can find them again?
    Thanks

    You can make your own map by hand and make notes.....

    You can mark the map with icons on the SOTA website version of the in game map by logging in and adding your own points of interest (POI's) ...
    Then by Alt-tabbing out of game, as I do all the time as out of game map performance is better, you can see your marked resources, but of course the out of game version of the game map doesn't show you your loc.

    Its a bummer you can't just go find a forrest. Im not even sure where the closest harvestable wood is from Spindrift isle or even Central brittany. Let alone all other harvestable nodes.

    Is such a shame we don’t have an actual Cartography skill in the game to make such maps and sell them....

    Has you noted that each scene has a tooltip showing what kind of resources is in the scene?

    Also /loctrack to keep it up on the screen. But I usually just remember where the resources are after a few times.
