Like Respenus says "eye candy"...but if you really want to know the heading in degrees here goes: (approximates) N/Ne=45...S/Sw=225 :up: ...E/Ew and W/Ew there are no such headings :hmm:

N = 0
N/NE = 22
NE = 45
E/NE = 68
E = 90
E/SE = 112
SE = 135
S/SE = 158
S = 180
S/SW = 202
SW = 225
W/SW = 248
W = 270
W/NW = 292
NW = 305
N/NW = 338


If you're talking about the BDU convoy reports where a mark appears on the map, they're NOT eye-candy, they're quite real. In addition to using the directions given, one can also look at the convoy/ship icon on the map and determine it's course (roughly) from the "tail" on the icon.
