Re: Enemy minefield indicator that won\'t go away
If you have a ship move specifically into that sector, will it clear? Move a minesweeper ship into that square maybe?

Re: Enemy minefield indicator that won\'t go away
Hit Ctrl-R and select the sector. This clears minefield indicators. Ctrl-T can add them wherever you want.

Re: Enemy minefield indicator that won\'t go away
There ought to be buttons for those commands... Get rid of the buttons for some of the commands that were never implemented and put those in, nobody ever remembers them!

Re: Enemy minefield indicator that won\'t go away
I am pretty sure you can also get rid of the marked minefields by specifically giving your sweepers the "sweep" command and directing them to that sector. But it's been a while. I usually use the hotkeys.

Re: Enemy minefield indicator that won\'t go away
I had this same problem arise in a 1.67 game with Fyron. I had a minefield as the Borg and a minelayer populating it. The Ferengi caused a crew insurrection and then completed laying mines. I could not get that indicator to go away, even after sweeping the field of enemy mines. This creates a nusance using waypoints, as ships would avoid this otherwise safe space just because of the minefield marker. I just accepted it as a bug. Guess MM ought to know.

Re: Enemy minefield indicator that won\'t go away
Personally, I set minefield markers at warp points that lead to places where I don't want ships to go without good reason, like Black Holes and Spacial Anomolies.  |
