The best explanation I've seen is that each tower has two flags (1 red, 1 blue), and the active one is vertical. So a tower that starts out Red will have a vertical red flag (which isn't visible from the top) and a horizontal Blue one (which IS visible from the top view).

Also, you can download a STEP file of the field from this thread and open it in CAD. http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=141138
My team was confused by this at first as well. Instead of opting to make the view more viewable, they instead went from a straight top down, making it more confusing. If in doubt, the secret passage berm color will be that alliance's color.
