Create navigational aids

I love this game, but much like irl, I have a poor sense of direction. I spend most of my time getting lost. It would be very useful to have some navigational equipment. There are a few options that are in keeping with the 'realistic' spirit of the game:

Map - the map could look hand drawn to look like your character has drawn it, and it fills in as the area is explored, with a current position marker, and also the ability for the character to mark their own points, such as where they left snares etc

Flags - the creation of flags could be done at the table with cloth and sticks. This would help the more directionally challenged to mark out routes to regular hunting/harvesting spots

Compass - maybe a rare find or created at the crafting table. Although, a compass without a map is pretty useless.

Like you, I tend to wander off and lose my sense of direction. Have you tried sketching your own maps? I found I got to know the environments quite a bit better after I did this. I also noticed I started to recognize landmarks I hadn't seen before. You might try that at out and see what happens.

Making a map would be nice. Personaly, I'm an amazing tracker that can memorize roads and stuff really easily(not the names, but the layoutXD) I do think it would be cool to get an achievement for mapping

MOTHER FRICKEN EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!
