Usage

When an enemy is under attack or tracked using a weapon or ability, their icon can also be seen on the map temporarily. Players can select the location of an ally, Squid Beakon or Big Bubbler to Super Jump to that location.

When not in battle, the map shows all accessible locations in Inkopolis or Splatsville. The player can instantly go to the desired location by selecting the applicable button near the map.
