SE5: WP transit order and mine deploying?

[Randallw]

I'd like to know how to do 2 things.

Is there any way to rearrange the order of my ships when they go though a warp point. It shows the order they go through in a fleet but I can't figure out how to rearrange it, if possible.

How can I deploy mines? 1. There doesn't appear to be a way to repeat orders to lay mines each turn and 2. Even though I fitted out my mine laying ship with multiple minelayers it won't deploy more than 2 a turn. It says each allows 2.5 mines a minute during combat, but I doubt this applies to deploying them over a whole month (turn)
