When you select a team, the View Area displays blue boxes around each
member of the team; a circle is always displayed around squad leaders (or
higher), even when the team is not selected. Once the team has found a target

Issuing a Hide Command
You issue a Hide command when you want a team to take cover in a safe position
and keep their heads down. When you issue a Hide command, the View Area
displays a hide marker on the team, indicating that it’s looking for the best nearby
hiding place. Once a team finds suitable cover, it stays there until you issue
another order. Hidden teams will fire on enemies that come within 30 meters of
their hiding place.
