"Breadcrumb" System
Breadcrumb Navigation System
The prison's breadcrumb system helps guide you to mission objectives and important locations without getting lost in the sprawling facility.
What Are Breadcrumbs?
Breadcrumbs are visual navigation markers that appear on the ground, creating a path from your current location to your mission objective. This is the trail of glowing markers that guide you through the prison during missions.
How It Works
Automatic Activation
When you start a mission or activity, the breadcrumb system automatically activates:
Mission Start: Accept a mission from Carlos or Reggie
Path Generation: A trail of markers appears on the ground
Follow the Trail: The markers lead you to your objective
Updates Dynamically: The path adjusts as you move
Visual Appearance
Breadcrumbs typically appear as:
Ground Markers: Visible markers on the floor/ground
Direction Indicators: Show you which way to go
Distance-Based: More markers appear as you get closer
Limited Visibility: Maximum of 35 markers visible at once (prevents lag)
Following Breadcrumbs
Basic Navigation
Moving Forward:
Simply walk/run in the direction of the markers
Each marker disappears as you pass it
New markers appear ahead as you progress
Obstacles:
Path accounts for doors
Completion:
Trail ends at your objective location
Final marker indicates where to interact
The system deactivates once the objective is complete
Door System
Some missions require you to pass through locked doors. The breadcrumb system handles these transitions intelligently.
Door Transitions
When your objective is behind a locked door:
Initial Path: Breadcrumbs lead you to the door
Door Interaction: You'll see a notification to unlock/open the door
After unlocking, New breadcrumbs may appear on the other side
Completion Distance: Get within ~2-5 meters of the door to trigger
Interactive Doors
For missions in multi-yard areas:
Entry Breadcrumb: Guides you to the door entrance
Door Notification: Message appears when you reach it
Use the Door: Interact with the door using
ALTor your ox_target key.Exit Breadcrumb: New trail appears leading from
Objective Path: Final breadcrumbs lead to your mission location
Entry & Exit Radius: ~5 meters (you must get close to trigger)
Special Locations

Hidden stash locations
Package pickup points
Delivery zones
Return paths to your contact
Common Issues & Solutions
Can't See Breadcrumbs?
Possible Causes:
Mission hasn't started yet (talk to your contact)
You're too far from the objective
Mission failed or was canceled
Solutions:

Move closer to the general area
Restart the mission if needed
Breadcrumbs Lead to a Door?
This is normal! The mission requires you to:
Unlock/Use the door (use lockpick / or hold your target key [Default:
ALT])New breadcrumbs will appear on the other side
Breadcrumbs Disappeared?
This happens when:
You completed the objective
Mission failed (Due to Inactivity or another reason)
The mission was canceled
Mission-Specific Tips
Collection Missions:
Breadcrumbs lead directly to the pickup location
After collecting, a new trail may appear for exiting
Watch for guards along the path
Elimination Missions:
The trail leads to the target's general location
Target may move, but the area is marked
Plan your approach using the breadcrumb route
Delivery Missions:
Breadcrumbs show the most direct route
May lead through restricted areas
Hold
ALT,or your interaction key, to find the drop-point (Check vents, under steps, etc.).Plan for guard encounters along the way
