With the gameplay paused, a small cyan pyramid appears on the center of the map app. When the map is panned, the pyramid stays on the center, and hence, follows the panning. As the shape moves, a set of arrows originating from the current leader mark a trail from the leader's icon on the map to the spot the pointer is at. After a small delay, a button with the leader's icon and the words "Go Here!" will appear in a non-obstructive location of the screen. Tapping this button will make the leader take the path shown towards the target location. With the Go Here! functionality, players can make leaders (and their army of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]) automatically move to a location, while they focus on doing something else with another leader. | With the gameplay paused, a small cyan pyramid appears on the center of the map app. When the map is panned, the pyramid stays on the center, and hence, follows the panning.

The path suggested is always the shortest one required in order to reach the destination. This path-finding system also takes into account insurmountable [[obstacles]] and water, disallowing the travel if the player tries to enter a body of water with non-[[blue Pikmin]] in their party.

[[Hazard]]s and [[Enemy|enemies]] are ignored when deciding the path, but uncharted terrain is considered and not allowed. If the player places the destination point in an uncharted or invalid location (like the aforementioned body of water condition), the pyramid marker will turn pink, and the "Go Here!" button will be grayed out. If the path to a certain location is blocked off by an uncleared obstacle or any other feature that can't be overcome, the shown path will still trace to the point of the obstacle, where it then displays a pink × sign, and the rest of the path with pink arrows, meaning the leader can only reach the point marked by the × sign. | ||
If the leader reaches their destination successfully, a dialog message will appear on-screen with their icon, and a message stating that they reached their target spot. If not, they'll explain why the path didn't work. They'll also give up if they get stuck on something for a few seconds. If the leader is [[Health|damaged]] during their walk, they will cancel their task altogether. | If the leader reaches their destination successfully, a dialog message will appear on-screen with their icon, and a message stating that they reached their target spot.
