I'd rather the AI learn to mass minesweepers and/or change orders for fleets to not enter sectors that have mines. I can understand one ship hitting the previously cleared sector, but not an entire procession of ships.
Correct, of course, but it's another option. I'm still asking for mines to be given a genuine "to hit" probability. At least if they never get to this I can just disable them and ignore the problem.
