Terrain Walkers
I deployed a terrain walker for the first time and immediately got lost as I assumed that my ships position would be marked on the radar. Is there a method one can use to keep track of where one's ship is on the planet, or is it a matter of keeping a close watch on the compass headings?

Hello,
It has been a while since I was in a TW.
It might be on the radar scope as a blip or jump as high as you can whilst spinning looking for the shield.

There is a small blip on your radar glove that shows the position of your ship.

Also if you haven't gotten out of distance or terrain is not blocking it, the Wireframe Cloaking of the ship is visibile from a fair distance, unless the light from the sky/sun washes it out.
