Arolte just got my 27k bounty because of this bug. :(
The LMs stayed snagged all the way out to ~500m.

Okay, I can definitely confirm that there's a bug with the l-mines. About two or three days ago when I was leaving a mined station, I looked behind me as I was boosting away. Lo and behold a single bolt locked on to my ship from over 1200m away from the station. No matter how I turned or boosted or whatever, the thing stuck to me until I died. I REALLY hope this is fixed in the next version. No lag btw.

What I hate most about lmines is that they shoot THROUGH stations, though. It's annoying, because there can be a mine out my my view and it still kills me.

The collision detection code needs serious work - I'd guess it'll fix that.

the problem with the lmine (from expirince) is that the effect (on me at list) lasted a while after i got away from the mine...

it just cept on going down and it stops only if i go to a station to repair...

The collision detection code is fine. Lightning mines just don't use it. They suck.

We need EMP mines! EMP mines!

Yes. EMP mines. Maybe the current l-mines can be replaced with EMP mines. They can have the same pretty lightning zapping FX, but they would drain energy instead of life.

the EMP idia is very good....
but then it should go now to the suggestion forum...not the bug report forum!!!
