Grab 2 handheld [[GPS]] tools. Put one on your belt and one on the telepad. Now, choose a [[Telepad Control Console]] you want to use (most likely this will be the one in the [[Telescience Lab]]) and click "Recalibrate". Now, you want to set the X and Y co-ordinates to 100 and 100 each. Now send that sucker! Every time the teleporter is recalibrated, the ''difference'' changes. This is the variable that determines how badly your teleporter is calibrated and how you can fuck about with maths to make it pin-point accurate! Open up your own personal GPS and take a look at where your test GPS landed. | Grab 2 handheld [[GPS]] tools. Put one on your belt and one on the telepad.

You'll notice it didn't ''quite'' land at 100 100, did it? This is because of the slight inaccuracies of the teleporter. However! Using the test GPS you just sent, you can calculate the difference, like so! All you have to do is '''subtract the console co-ordinates (100 100) from the test number.''' Whatever comes out is your difference. Here's an example: | You'll notice it didn't ''quite'' land at 100 100, did it? This is because of the slight inaccuracies of the teleporter. However!

Now, to overcome the inaccuracy of the teleporter, all you have to do is apply this difference to your desired co-ordinates. For example, if I wanted to get to 95 150, and I had a difference of +7 -2, I would set the console to send me to 102 148! This will in fact send me directly to my desired location, 95 150, as we have now accommodated for the inaccuracies! | Now, to overcome the inaccuracy of the teleporter, all you have to do is apply this difference to your desired co-ordinates.
