Whenever I enter one of the sector patrol missions as part of the episode arc, I will often see the orange enemy reticule surrounding my ship with the corresponding information such as the distance to the target.
This will only disappear when the enemies actually come into visual sight and combat is engaged. So instead of seeing the reticule further head while I travel towards them at impulse, it encompasses my ship.

Missions
Reproduction:
Seems to be at random, but is happening a lot whenever I have replayed the content. Happens more often than not.
Location:
Any of the sector patrol missiones available through episodic replay.
My system is 8Gb/270x-4Gb/1055T - Windows 8.1, Catalyst 14.7. I can't think of ever having been able to clear this even in trying to change target to different enemies if there is a group. Nothing like rotating the camera so I'm not looking where the enemies would appear makes a difference.
If you've come to the forums to complain about the AFK system, it's known to be bugged at the moment.
If I enter a combat map, enemy health bars and distance meters will disappear when I am looking directly at them, and will only appear if I look away. I have to be within 16KM or else the indicators do not appear. I also cannot select targets when this occurs.

Nitpicking is a time-honored tradition of science fiction. Asking your readers not to worry about the "little things" is like asking a dog not to sniff at people's crotches. If there's something that appears to violate natural laws, then you can expect someone's going to point it out. That's just the way things are.
Yes that's kinda the idea. But it's the patrol missions where I had the problem. Going to run a couple again today to see if I can replicate again and maybe grab a screen shot.

I turn the camera to look and the indicator disappears even though the enemy is plainly visible:

I have to get within 16KM for the indicator to become visible again:
