How does the radar work?

[GazzaGarratt 11,049]

@Plumbers Crack asked me to find some info on the radar so I have some basic information on how it works. Underlying though it states it works similar to how the Destiny radar does.

For Shapes:

• Large orange circle: An enemy pilot
• Small orange circle: Enemy AI controlled entity (other than titan)
• Orange arrow: An enemy titan

Q. A whole 1/8th of the circle can be colored in the enemy color (orange). What does this mean?

Spoiler

This is if there are shots being fired within a near area by an enemy.

Q. Sometimes, a faded orange circle will appear around a section of the map, which may or may not have anything to do with map objectives. What's this for?

Spoiler

This is where enemy spawns are happening for the current time. The enemy can see this too.

Q. Sometimes the outer ring of the radar has solid colored in orange sections. What do these indicate?

Spoiler

This is similar to the shots being fired but further away from your current location.
