Red ship outlines on map

Pepe le Moko · 03-26-09, 08:43 PM

I see ships that are red on the map when i got a visual on them and zoom in real close, from time to time. What does it mean?

Are you running stock or GWX? If it's stock and they're red squares with a tail on them, those are enemy ships within view of your u-boat. If it's GWX and they're little icons that look like a ship broken in half, they're the location of ships you've sunk.

GWX yes and i am not talking about the little squares but the ship outlines when you're in visual range and zoom in, you know. When you zoom in on the squares close enough, then the squares turn into these thin ship outlines that erm look like ships seen from above.

I have only noticed this recently, maybe it has something to do with me installing community ships and VonDos ships i don't know.

My guess is they're either damaged or armed?

Hi Pepe,

I think you are correct - I suspect it must be the mods you mention.

I run GWX3.0 + SH3 Commander 3.2 + a few GWX3 mods, and my ships regardless of the type, are always the thin black ship outlines. I have never seen red ones before.

Regards,
Dud
