Fun with mines! - Page 2

Here's a question:

If there are enemy mines in the same "wandering" sector as "my" mines, will they set each other off if they meet?

No. Mines are not set off when other objects are moved into the same sector by random movement, whether the mines just moved to that sector or had already been there.

It may also be possible to have more than 100 mines in a single sector, but they will be separate minefields, so... I'm not sure what will happen when you try to sweep them.

There's an ability for systems that moves everything in the system "randomly" after normal movement occurs each turn. It's used in the Organic Infestation systems in SE4 Gold.
