Would someone PLEEEEZZZEEEEE tell me how to drop a waypoint marker (red dot) onto the map on top of towers or other points of interest since the last update?

I figgered that .. but I am so used to just flipping to the map, marking whatever (often a call or a location on the other side of the reserve i want to go to), and flipping back. Now, I somtetimes (quite often) drop the mark, start something, look for the mark and ITS NOT THERE. A bl**dy popup telling me that tower 7 is tower 7 took its place and there is no mark. I just HOPE they add a game setteng to SWITCH OFF the popups ...

Yes since the update it is no longer possible to mark the towers.

Ideally we'd have both: mark a waypoint even while there's a popup showing. I'm not sure how this engine grabs input, so that may or may not be feasible?

Contrary to the optimist and the pessimist, the engineer sees a glass that's twice as big as it needs to be.

I am sure it could be done technically. Also when you open the map and want to play a marker where you are, you can't. Because your tag pops up. Natually you can also not mark tents, as then it suggests to fast travel.

They could use a key instead of the mouse button to place and remove marks, like they do in Way of the Hunter.

And while they are at it (if ever), let us make more than one mark.
