mine sweeping question

If a minesweeping ship is somehow already in a mined sector, for example if it moved there before a treaty was broken or was built there, the sweep mines command could be used to have it sweep that sector without having to move.

Thank you guys. This is very reassuring.

Nope. That's what we thought but it doesn't work that way. You do have to move out of the sector and then back in to sweep.
