If so you could mount both on one vehicle and make a type of time delay row of explosions behind you because oil takes one turn to ignite.

Can a ped blow a mine? If so, the method of detonation would be a pressure sensitive switch or trigger. How susceptible to fire would it be? hard to say, depends. If a mine is c4, it won't detonate from burning, the primer must fire. If I were a conscientious mine manufacturer, I wouldn't want heat to cause that problem, as you could have mines detonate when you didn't want them to, so you'd manufacture the switch mechanisms out of metal and a very stable insulator. If you made your switch contacts out of plastic, it would degrade faster and give false triggers.


This all gives me an idea for a command detonated minelayer weapon suggestion, if it hasn't already been done. You could mine a pass, wait for the pursuing vehicles to get there then blow the mines on command. WHEEEEE!!! Fun!

Mines that explode on demand probably aren't wise for gameplay.. but timed mines rather than the current proximity mines could be good.

And sorry glow.. the answer to your original question is no.

Does this mean you're redesigning the DB (and other bits) to allow for multiple ammo types per weapon?

('Cause that's what I want it to mean :) )

Timed delay could be interesting. How about being able to plant some C4 or other explosive device on a car where the bad guys are unconscious and blow it up when they start moving again? :p

Someone mentionned something about peds detonating mines.

Do mines blow up in the proximity of peds?

Needless to say: I never tried!


you could test with some slaves.

If I drop a mine in an flaming puddle, will the mine explode/burn away?


I have anecdotal evidence that they will not but have not tried it myself.
