Deatlev 0 Posted June 26, 2012 Not 100% sure but I think it is because you looked at zombies, and then it register on your map, this happened to me but a survivor, it said survivor on the map but I doubted it, and I moved on and got shot by him, lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dinosaurJR 0 Posted June 26, 2012 AFAIK it is a left over from ARMA II. The orange dots were meant to represent civilians. I think the orange dots in Day Z represent zeds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

clodan 0 Posted June 27, 2012 once you reveal the position of a zombie/animal/survivor/(not sure)vehicule it will save the position where you last saw it/him/her. But if they change position without you looking at them, then the map will show you past information. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greenfist (DayZ) 11 Posted June 27, 2012 Like the image says: it's a man. It's orange because you haven't recognized it yet as a friend nor enemy. Red dot would be an identified enemy. There's a slightly faded dot right next to it, which means you've seen someone there earlier but not right now.It's a standard arma feature on lower difficulty settings. Everybody should familiarize themselves with vanilla arma a bit before playing dayz. Everything would be much easier then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
