some ships should have left scrap in space

Detonating minefields don't leave scrap but hitting regular ones does I believe. Funny how due to random nature of scrap, you may actually leave more scrap than the ships cost when crash sweeping with those mini-colonisers.


That explains it: the last turn the ship that left scrap was a minicolonizer going at warp 9, the other (that left no scrap) was a frigate minelayer, going at warp 6 or so. Surely the minicolonizer hit the minefield before it was detonated, hence the scrap and the fact that I can see it now.

Seems that you must hit the minefield, or travel through it for one turn, to make it visible in the radar, detonating the minefield prevents it.
