burritoman259 593 Posted April 8, 2013 (edited) Orange means unidentified, but it is another play in the vehicle.Red means Identified as a non US vehicle, again occupied.Green is just a US vehicle, again has someone in it.Grey I'm pretty sure means unoccupied vehicles, but it also might mean buildings.These are just off the top of my head but i'm pretty sure this is what they mean. Could be wrong though. Edited April 8, 2013 by burritoman259 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jordan* 277 Posted April 9, 2013 He is correct on colors, and adding to it, triangles are air vehicles, and squares are land vehicles. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tracksuithitman 56 Posted April 9, 2013 well, my mate and i see gray dots EVERYWHERE, there is no place on the map where gray dots aren't.she's even landed on top of a gray dot, to find nothing under her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DayzForumer 284 Posted April 9, 2013 Is this a modded server? Because if so, this is the wrong section. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tracksuithitman 56 Posted April 9, 2013 we're generally discussing the Knighthawk radar.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
burritoman259 593 Posted April 9, 2013 They honestly could just be ghost dots, Where something is glitched underground, stuff like that.I think buildings sometimes pop up on radar but I'm not sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tracksuithitman 56 Posted April 10, 2013 Grey squares are abandoned vehicles.i guess they're invisible and have no collision since we can land our helicopter right on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BwobBwub 660 Posted April 10, 2013 i guess they're invisible and have no collision since we can land our helicopter right on them. The radar has always been weird. While playing on Arma, Radar detects things what aren't even there, like wrecks/dismounted vehicles what have despawned. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ershaw 2 Posted April 11, 2013 what server you playing on? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saethkept 134 Posted April 11, 2013 If a server owner spawns vehicles that the DayZ or mod version does not allow or has banned, sometimes they still show up on radar, even though you can't see them in game. Also, it seems that certain buildings sometimes show up on radar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
