Hello, last update for beta you removed the mines deployment on s/m ships and i was wonder why? i loved the challange it gave me.

and i have allways bin curious about this aswell why arent anny commands to use on your ships to make Mine Fields and such

then agien i just wanted to thank you for this update 7.0 really love the changes to the game specaly the ui changes, i Wish you all a Great day/evening/night, and have a great x4 time aswell

A dev answered the question in the Steam Announcements comments section:


And I'm inclined to agree. I like enemies being able to deploy mines, but there's been a couple of instances when I'm in a Heavy Fighter and attacking an enemy fighter head on which deploys a mine that lands ontop of me, essentially sticking to my ship for 2-4 seconds before detonating and destroying me. Not really a lot I could do because it was impossible to evade.

Yeah True i was just wondering about it, and i fully understand.

Some kind of dedicated Xenon mine-bomber would be cool enemy, but it would probably require first to make mines work in OOS as well.

I used to get trashed with AI mine-slingshot on me(mostly VIG does this to me). Until I realized what happened and picked the skill up. Had fun shoving it on them now. Disabled later? that would be sad.

I would appreciate it if the NPCs would stop dumping them on my station!

P.S. Amazingly high-quality model for a mine!
