Are new smeevil treats dropping?

The end of the last sentence is just really bad "You can check on the status of the courier by looking at the mini map and see where he's at."
I'm pretty bad at English but think it should be "seeing where he is."

The issue is 'see.' It is a different tense than what the rest of the sentence is.
'It' in that first part refers to the mask, then the 'he' refers to the courier.

"and seeing where he's at" isn't correct. see is fine.

No it's not. Conversationally it is. In written form it's wrong.
