Datacartridge Waypoint Entry
Cartridges can be created while in game, requiring a rearm or refuel to update the list of cartridges in the jet.
MIP Cartridge Slot Cover
OPEN (rmb)
Select cartridge by using the scroll wheel while hovering over the floating cartridge above the MIP Cartridge Slot.
With the desired cartridge selected, left click to hover it over the MIP slot, and then left click again to select it, or right click to remove it.
The MIP cartridge will begin being entered into the jet. This process takes approximately 15s.
Once completed, the orange MIP light on the PCN will extinguish, and the cartridge can be removed and the MIP slot cover can be closed.
Currently, a MIP with 10 waypoints will override waypoints 11 to 20 in the jet, while a MIP with 11-20 waypoints will override all of the jets current waypoints.
