What exactly is the “Worth Seeing” option supposed to display? It shows pink dots all over the map, but it’s not entirely clear what information this option is displaying. Also, why does this option display something different for enemy units vs. friendly units?

“Worth seeing” is a measure of how important it is for a force to be able to see or observe a location. For example, bridges and intersections and high ground are usually highly “worth seeing”, while the middle of a cornfield isn’t. The AI uses this information when coming up with unit objectives and movement routes (so it can “sense” where it will likely be observed). It is also used when judging where the best places are to “see” the enemy.
