Is "Radar grid" the official term for F3 or something?

I've never ever referred to it as the radar, the radar (as far as I'm concerned) is the None/Target/Default/All toggle overlay.

Well, it does provide a look at things that you couldn't see without probing or sending a ship in...

My question is how to refer to it in the traning material. We can't very well have two radars..

Isn't this the sector map?

I would have thought it would have been Command View or Sector View, not radar.

Sector View Sounds better to me - good stuff.

No, I say go with command view. Isn't sector view the map in the lower left corner? The one you click on to tell cons and miners to go to different sectors?

No, that's the minimap :)

It's command view if you are in the base. It's sector view if you are flying around.
