Igi2 m1 b9-transformed

Jones using the Map Computer to communicate with White, in an IGI2 cutscene.

The Map Computer gives Jones a realtime satellite image of the terrain with unit positions, and through it (IGI 2 only) the player can also access a limited save game system (2-5 saves). Objectives are also stored in the same computer, as uploaded by the Mission Director (Anya or White). It also helps Jones hack into security systems, providing the software that is necessary to break into the door keypad codes. See Door Hacking.

Unlike equipment that must be used when near certain objects, the Map Computer can be activated at any time using a hotkey, since it is equipment that Jones always carries.

Project IGI:[]

In Project IGI, map computer is branded as SIMOTECH, and has Monochrome screen (greenish color). It highlights keypoints as red text, enemies as red triangle, and allies as green triangles. (Requires zooming in) It is also capable of showing movements of vehicles within the map, and highlights most vehicles (which are activated) with a yellow rectangle.

In Mission 7, 8 (first half), 13 (During the tunnel section) and 14, the map computer is unavailable and pressing its button will only bring up the Log / Objective screen.

IGI 2: Covert Strike:[]

In IGI 2:Covert Strike, map computer is branded as ZIMO-TECH and has full color view. It also highlights and tracks enemies and allies (in a pentagon shape, does not require zooming in) and also provides access to IGI HQ (save/load game).

It's partially damaged at the start of Mission 7, showing a cracked up screen. It's unavailable at the start of Mission 9 until Jones recovers it after escaping from his cell.

In Mission 17, the Map Computer shows a non-real time layout of the Temple after Jones acquired the blueprints in the nearby cabinets. If this objective is skipped, this is the only time the Map Computer won't show any screen other than log, objective and IGI HQ.

Sometimes, the map computer cannot properly display the positions of special forces soldiers.
