This is exacerbated by the fact that Sturms are so expensive and not the best of combat units for their cost. They should get a decent sweeper not one from the junk heap

maybe that's the downside of getting a toggle, which every other engineer/pioneer in the game does not get?

I think it might be the toggle on the minesweepers. I literally see no reason why it might be worse than the other faction's mine sweepers.

Haven't tested it, though.

Then it should cost less, because the sweeper comes out when they retreat anyway. Plus the other engineers are much cheaper than sturms and sturms don't scale incredibly into late game.

Then what is the use of a minesweeper if it doesn't sweep?

I wonder if they are not using the "old" minesweeper profile, if that even exist.

I'm gonna ask my partner if he still has the replay, but i'm pretty sure the minesweeper fail to detect a mine which was 10m from a tank.

They have a toggle available, so it might actually use a different file name and thus be bugged without affecting the other 3 armies.

???

You do realize it coming out when you retreat is a quality of life feature from Relic, which makes it so you don't get your sweeper squad wiped by mines while they're retreating because you forgot to put the thing away?
