I'm thinking it might be a safe route between defenses, maybe with a mobile jammer?

We don't have an unmapped view like we did in OTA. So may next guess is it is a graphical overlay so you can see were you have already scouted and which units /feature/etc you have seen. Handy for players and AI makers optimising their scout patterns.

No because that would be easily done using the callback, that would then deliver the problem of how do we draw a shape on the map without it being just a wireframe, without creating lots and lots of thick semitransparent lines, which is sure to lag.........

Or you could use the method I was going to use, well I'm still gonna do ti I just ahve other priorities.
