Axesor Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 (edited) *cough cough* This was my idea back in 2016... Also there was a poll https://renegade-x.com/forums/topic/75038-mining/ Nothing has changed. On 15. 1. 2016 at 9:50 PM, Axesor said: All things that needs to be done: 1. Mines can be damaged by any direct hits only now. 2. Replace team mine limit with player mine limit 3. 1 laser damage = current damage of 1 mine. After 1 laser is used, it recharges for XX second (15 or so), cant be repaired to speed it up 4. Control panel (scanner on the picture next to the door) can be hacked to turn the lasers off, or repaired to turn the lasers on. Also can be disabled with EMP, that will turn the lasers off for XX seconds. 5. 2 lasers in each of the windows (HON) with no control panel Intuitive, noob friendly - awesome replacement for current mines use. Flawless. Edited April 14, 2018 by Axesor 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did make some progress but I guess it was not accepted by the rest of the devs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[B]Veyron Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 that's a dev though.. one should be able to come up with said concept and then give it away once finished to potential mappers who may use this idea in their maps. can't anyone be a dev in their hearts and minds? look at the stuff I did... do you think any of that will be accepted by the dev community? hell no! but I fight for the people.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the best system, plus it keeps to the command and conquer RTS gameplay kind of, whereby only engineers usually can enter and capture buildings. With RenX, whoever has repair guns becomes an engineer of sort. Westwood may have incorporated this themselves given more time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totem Arts Staff roweboat Posted April 15, 2018 Totem Arts Staff Share Posted April 15, 2018 Well maybe if we keep discussing this in earnest, we can get the attention of those who actually have the abilities and time to make it happen.

Ryz Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 To be honest I rather keep mines, because: - you can place more mines at one place when a building is gone - mines brings in a certain chance to infiltrate the HON / Strip for GDI if not properly mined (or if ppl dont carefully watch) But yeah the games where there are two 'AP mines' in front of the base and non in buildings kinda suck. Only past week I spent several games just replacing mines or searching for who overmined. By the time we fixed that we found at 'Building A' had no mines, only to find it infiltrated (and killed).

Totem Arts Staff NodSaibot Posted April 16, 2018 Totem Arts Staff Share Posted April 16, 2018 I started working on it, but lost interest. Too many custom assets needed for it.

Other than the text saying (unable to plant here) when attempting. That can be very frustrating to new and veteran players alike. Common sense says that if you don't plant mines in a bottleneck then you're a moron. No amount of friendly reminders or indications will help with this. A general indication of where mines typically go and something to inform players that Techs/Hottys mines are for the whole team and not just for that player, should probably be made clearer via the game itself than some pub-reg spewing toxic language obnoxiously creating a foul piece of shit representation for RenX and the community.
