After a few playful fights with lightning mines, I think targeting mines should be added. I know they can be destroyed, but trying to hit them from a safe distance while fighting someone is pretty much impossible.
The way i see it, If my radar can detect them, I should be able to target them.

On to the fun stuff!

If a mine is fired on it should work as a weapon for whichever side destroyed it.
Example: If a Serco drops a mine, and an Itani shoots it, the resulting explosion should damage any Serco in the area. (and the shooter of course just like rocket splash)

For lightning mines a successful hit would discharge the mine and damage any enemy players in the area, so someone hiding near lightning mines for protection could very quickly have the tables turned.

I don't think this would hurt gameplay in any way, and could lead to some very interesting fight strategies.

you can target mines, you have to use the [ and ] keys to cycle to them however.

They used to be targetable by pressing whatever key you used for "target next in front"

devs, can we get that back?

Yeah, they fiddled with the way mines work with regards to the no friendly-fire rules because people were switching sides to demine the flag. But that was years ago, we don't even have flags anymore. So I'm pretty sure they could undo those changes.

bah humbg

mines should be invisilbe to radar

how else do you expect me to kill the pvpers?
