The Quest Marker is a special gadget that is used to guide players throughout a Quest in LittleBigPlanet 3.

Usage and Behaviour

The Quest Marker can be used to point lost players in the right direction.

Quest Markers are placed in the same manner as other gadgets. They have a unique model that resembles a map marker, however, the UVs are broken in-game.

As with other Quest related gadgets, the Quest Marker requires a Quest in order to function. If the player is using the Organisertron's "Guide Me" function on the specified Quest (or one of its Objectives), a player-coloured marker will appear above the Quest Marker's position, and will stay at a fixed size regardless of the camera's zoom. If the attached object is off-screen, the marker will float on the edge of the screen pointing in its direction; the marker will also grow and shrink depending on how far away the player is from the marker.

A Quest Marker will only display if the associated Quest/Objective is currently active, and if the player is actually tracking it; if it is marked as Inactive or Complete, the marker does not appear.

By default, the Quest Marker will always display an icon if the player is tracking its associated Quest, but the gadget has an input that allows it to be turned off with logic; a marker will appear above the gadget when it receives a digital ON signal, disappearing when that signal turns OFF.
