[Spec Bug] [Brit "Metal Detector" spec allows multiple mine-clearing and moving] [v9.06]

Using the aforementioned spec enables engineer units to clear multiple mine-fields and even some moving therebetween.

It's too "powerful" right now to have been intended like this...

This should only be possible once per turn and not indefinitely as it seems to be the case.
There must be a lot of minefields in your scenario...

If working as it should, it's quite the useful spec to have. It's still fun right now, but not working as intended.

I was playing the "Mareth Line" scen or the next one, not sure.

The problem is that if there are several adjacent minefields, the engineer can remove several during the same turn :shock:

Example : 7 mines removed during the same turn and it’s not over :!:

Metal Detector is interesting to remove minefields around bunkers without risk :
