This will lead you to a GPS tracker in… a way you can find out about. After setting up a base near your helicopter crash site, mainly so you can use the helicopter on the GPS to find your way home, you can head out to the first pink icon.

One of your items is a GPS map tool which shows a few indicators on your map.

This does take a bit of getting used to, but just know that your first base is likely a trial to understand the controls before you move on to a proper base. There are two forms of use for the guide - one that sets up the structure in place and you add materials to it, and then one that tells you what you need to set up structures directly yourself. To get started, you open your inventory, open up your emergency bag for your starter tools, and use your guide to start building. You can’t exactly start running around the island without food, water, and a base to return to after all. The building in the game is the first thing you’ll interact with as you need shelter and a general setup to get started. However, that isn’t confirmed yet and his destruction of tree structures could easily be a glitch or malfunction. To comment on the tree house aspect, there are rumors that it is canon and he does this because he is scared of heights or because he saw some of the hostile people climbing trees and thinks it is unsafe. Fun tip, Kelvin is insanely good at catching fish! Luckily, he can think well enough to do whatever you ask him to do which helps with gathering supplies - as long as you don’t want him to help with a tree house. Just as it was set up in The Forest, you are a survivor of a crash on a mysterious remote island that doesn’t seem to be uninhabited, and even worse - they are hostile! However, unlike the first game, you are given an AI character named Kelvin, who also survived the crash but seems to have suffered serious brain hemorrhaging. There is plenty to explore and some secrets to uncover already.

Looking to avoid delaying their game from launching when they said, Endnight Games has released Sons of the Forest into early access.
