Is there a way to fix this bug? Is it a widely-experienced bug?
It is frustrating as hell and I hope there is a way to fix it. I can't post it on the official forum (banned for 2 weeks for swearing one time - take note!).
If I had to explain it in words, it's as if the node has to be much closer to me for me to see it on the radar when I am facing it than when I am facing away from it - I have to be about half as far from the node to see it on the radar while my vision arc is over it.
