Default Re: Mine Sweep Order

Sure it has use. If you have a minesweeper orbiting an enemy planet and they launch mines, the mines do not get swept. If you use the minesweep order, you can sweep without moving away and back. Actually, this pertains to a situation in any sector where a cloaked enemy vessel comes and launches mines in the same sector your sweeper is. Normally, sweeping only occurs when your ships move into a sector. But with this order, you can sweep at any time.
