When setting up a fighter sweep, the primary target must correspond to a map object.

But after you have done so, you may then you an arbitrary map location when modifying the missing as your sweep primary target.

I am not sure if they is a bug or subtle feature.

Maybe i'm missing the point here but you can select anywhere on the map for a sweep or patrol location, it doesn't have to be a map object...

Try creating one and selecting anywhere through the wizard as the initial prompt. It seems you need a known object. Only when you go to alter it may you select anywhere.

I will give it another try. If I get it, I will try to make you a video. I have never done a two display video. So, I don't know if NVidia capture supports that.
