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.  |

Re: Enemy minefield indicator that won\'t go away
I thought that I saw a link once to a bunch of keyboard shortcuts. I looked in the newbie thread, but didn't see it. Does anyone know if this exists, or am I off my rocker?

Re: Enemy minefield indicator that won\'t go away
Setting systems to be avoided doesn't always work.
For all the Hotkeys:
Load up a game. Click on the Help button (a ?, or F1). Click on Hotkeys. Also, I am pretty sure that these are in the electronic manual too. |
