Gateway chambers

[vex]

Is there any easy way to locate all of them?

[Kerbol]

First way:Find one activete it,click the orb...and there you have a map
second way:Take off with a rocket,You should be able to see most of them from there

There should be one at the north and south pole for a start. My first base was almost in sight of the north pole one and for the longest time I couldn't understand why I kept getting lost. (I definitely went east, why is going west not looking familiar?) The others seem to be visible from the equator.

Thanks for your comments, from what i have found, the best way to find all of the gateway chambers is to find one, head west until you loop around the planet, then head north until you loop around the planet, you will find most this way.

I found one and unlocked it. But, does anyone know what the point to them is? I didn't get anything from unlocking it, other than the achievement.

Fair warning - there's only multiple so that you have easy access to one from anywhere on the planet.

Also, Pinoy - check the core of the planet. You'll see what they do.

Easiest way to find the first one is to look for it from the orbit. Look for the smoke thing and try to land near it.

When you find the first one, the other will be on the all 4 direction of the first one.(around 50-70 tether distance apart)

What I like to do is just bring the landing pad and beacon, carry it and deploy near the chamber.(with beacon so I can see it from orbit) use the resin along the way to craft the oxygen filter. Let the air run out after deploy so I can respawn at shuttle. and just hop around the chambers till I get all 6.

Surface elevation gateways can instantly transport you to any other activated gateways on the same planet. Interior gateways can transport you the Satellite or local surface gateways, and from the Satellite you can go to any activated interior gateways.

i dont know if this has been said yet but they send up a beam that can be seen from space. i went to the moon and landed near a "skybeam" and went over to it and found a chamber. ps i am now at the moons "enigne" (sorry for the bad spelling,steam does not have auto fix)

Thanks!

It appears that planets have 6 surface gateways - 2 on poles and 4 on equator. Desolo (and, I assume, exotic moon as well) have just 2 on equator.
Inactive gateways send up a beam that can be easily seen from surface, not just space. so once you found one on equator, you can just follow the planet rotation. Eventually you will hit other three.

Not that you have to, unless there's a hidden achievement I don't know about.

Just a PSA. One surface node, one core node, you're technically done with that planet.

There is an achievement for activating all nodes on all planets.
