Radar Display
The circular screen in every cockpit is a radar display. This display, divided into six sections, shows how far you have to rotate to bring a target into your front viewscreen. Radar contacts are displayed as dots. A dot in the outermost ring represents an enemy behind you; the center circle shows the position of enemies ahead of you; and the four middle sections represent enemy positions alongside, above or below you.
The color of each dot indicates what it is: red is for an enemy fighter, blue for a friendly fighter, orange for an enemy capital ship, gray for a friendly capital ship, white for your carrier or home base and yellow for a distress beacon (an ejected pilot or a data capsule or an enemy missile targeted on you). In VGA graphics mode, the shade of the dot indicates its range: the brighter the dot, the closer it is.
