simultaneous game / fleet order pb
 
I've got a fleet on a warp point, and I want to make it warp to an ennemy system. There are mines located at the other side of the WP.
I've tryed two times to move my fleet through the warp point, and each time it has moved in another direction, ignoring my orders...
Is there an option that prevent a fleet from moving on a minefield ?

Look in the Options tab of the Empire Status window (crown icon).

Yep. However even if you have "don't go through minefields" selected, you can override it and get them to warp through. You simply have to specifically order them to warp through the mined warp point before giving them the destination on the far side. Otherwise, they see their destination is blocked by a minefield, and you didn't specifically say to fly into the minefield, so they refer to their standard orders to avoid minefields, and take a course to the destination that avoids the minefield.

You can always 'untag' the mine field with Ctrl-R
