This happens when you input the same target twice, i think. just changing it to another target should work.
it doesn't, ive tried targetting several satellites, transformers, random coords and resetting, nothing helped
just started the new update and it seems to be a glitch in the game.
Can confirm this bled into 0.8.2. Sv.targeting "Charlie" moves the compass semipermanently to somewhere roughly in front of the base. Exiting and rejoining the save slot fixes this only until it sv.target is used again.
Originated in 0.8.2, there just isn't a 0.8.2 bug reports section yet so this is being used as one. It targets exactly 0:0
Ah. that changes a bit. OP didn't specify they were using 0.8.2. then
