Attack in one move.
One solution:
Determine how many big motha sweepers needed to sweep the field, then add 10 or 20% (be liberal here) more ships to be safe. Split off the number of ships required and set them to attack planet or better yet just a hair past the planet at the speed needed to get there in one move. Then split them up into individual ships.
In order to make sure your main battle fleets arrive last you must make certain they are of higher number than the sweeping ships. If not, then after splitting, merge the main fleet with the highest numbered so it will become the highest numbered.
Set the (highest numbered) main fleet to attack the planet in one move.
This almost always worked for me. Smile

The only time there is danger is if you underestimate the number of ships required to safely sweep the field. Then the main fleet may get stopped short of the planet.
However, a 30 ly field shouldn't be a big problem.
