I have never used mines in tactical combat before so I set up a combat simulation with several mine layers and other ships. When I ordered the mine layers to launch mines all the mines ended up in one mine group. It did'nt matter which ship launched them or even where they were on the tactical map. Is this a bug or is there something I am missing about this?
Ideally, I would like my mine layers to be able to lay mines in a scattered field in front of the advancing enemy.

I have seen them used in tactical combat by an AI ship and that produced several mine groups during the actual combat in that the mines seemed to be modelled individually but after the combat the remaining mines where counted as one mine group. Mines where positioned in the tactical grid where they where dropped it appeared
