Recognizing flags at night?

I may have to try that flag enlightenment mod. I've seen ships spotlight their flags. Could be just an artifact of my video card, but the flag is ALWAYS silhouetted in front of the light. I've gone free-view and observed from all angles, and it is still the case.

Yeah the spotlights just compound the problem and I get the same thing you describe. I'm not one to take for granted that a lit ship is a neutral ship and will always investigate any contact. Here's a link to the mod's thread as I don't think it's been posted here yet:
