How to navigate to a virtual world

Step 1: Reaching the Virtual World

First, you must plan your journey using the 'Digital Sea Map'. Also monitor the danger level of the Digital Sea to avoid underwater battles, which are particularly dangerous.

Open the 'Digital Sea Map' and choose the virtual world you wish to travel to. The Skidbladnir is represented by the symbol , while virtual worlds are represented by the symbols .

Controlling the 'Digital Sea Map'

Click on the mini-map in the bottom left corner of the window to display the entire Digital Sea map. You can click again on one of the 9 zones of the mini-map to zoom in on a specific location.

Use hubs as teleporters to reach a distant virtual world. See the tutorial 'Using a Digital Sea Hub' to learn more about this procedure.
Monitor the danger level of the Digital Sea, indicated at the bottom right of the 'Digital Sea Map'. This percentage increases when the Skidbladnir moves quickly or performs maneuvers. Monsters are highly likely to appear if that percentage exceeds 95%. See the tutorial 'Battling in the Digital Sea' to learn more about underwater battles.

Locate the virtual world on the 'Virtual Map', then navigate to it with the Skidbladnir.
Controlling the Skidbladnir in the Digital Sea
Open the 'Skid Controls' window, then click on the central column of the window to display the Skidbladnir navigation controls.

Position the Skidbladnir facing the virtual world entry hatch using the 'Align' option. If it's the first time accessing this virtual world, you must unlock its entry hatch with the Cryptosmasher.
