By square do you mean the marker at the center of your place space on the floor? If so this is part of that is part of the chaperon system. Ideally you probably want the green beams firing though about chest height if you are standing on the square. As for the "nets" that is the visualization of the fov, you just want to make sure that all of you intended play space in inside of them.

Thanks for Replying.
I do seated sim racing and last I used your program the single green beam is inside the chaperone and angled right in front if me from the left.
I only have One Valve Base Station atm, should I get another one? Can the V2 be run with a Version 1 Base station?
Version 2 base station are pricey. Which versions are better?
(This is from a Steam Support page)
- 1.0 (HTC-branded) and 2.0 (Valve-branded) Base Stations will not work with each other in the same VR setup.
- Index will work with both 1.0 and 2.0 Base Stations.
- 2.0 Base Stations will not work with the original Vive headset or Wand controllers, but will work with the Vive Pro product family.
(This is me talking)
So there is not a huge quality difference between the two, only get 2.0 if you have an Index or Vive Pro, other wise they will not work for you, and note that you will have to ditch your single 1.0 if you want to use 2.0. More base stations are better but if you are just doing cockpit sim stuff one could definitely be enough, it just depends if you are loosening tracking with your single base station.
