==Description==
The '''Gear Symbol''' is an icon that appears over a [[Blockhead]] that is is "finding" a way to a new [[World Location|location]].
A gear symbol is a symbol that you see when your [[Blockhead]] is "finding" a way two a location.
 
==Appearance==

==Use==
When commanded to [[Travel|move to a new location]], a Blockhead will pause as the game calculates its path. During this time, the gear symbol will appear and animate above its head. Once the calculations are complete, the symbol will disappear and the Blockhead will either begin moving or the destination selection will be aborted as inaccessible.
Very long or complex travel requests may spontaneously abort due to internal limits on the game's path calculator.
==Trivia==
==Trivia==
Normally you don't see the gear symbol because you don't need to make big trips. If you ''are'' making a big one, then you will probably see the symbol above your head. 
Normally the gear symbol isn't visible because the calculations happen too quickly.
==Bugs==
Sometimes, when you travel long distances, the gear symbol will suddenly disappear and your selection box will disappear also, resulting in staying in your spot.
