Red Target

[Viking67]

What does the red target / bull's eye on the map represent? I found no mention of it in the manual.

Some missions require you to sink ships within a certain distance of the marker.

In convoy missions, it represents the approximate position of the convoy at some point.

What is the red circle with lines representing?

[WLRoo]

Those ones are friendly minefields - they can still affect your ships, so avoid them!

I've noticed that my ships automatically avoid our own minefields.

[WLRoo]

I haven't had an issue, but someone posted an image of a blue box slightly offset over the red circle

Could have been coincidence, but since seeing that...

[EvanJones]

That blue box would be an identified enemy minefield.

[WLRoo]

No, the blue box represents where you've hit a mine.

This is because I've noticed that enemy minefields detected by your mine sweepers will also be displayed as a red circle.
