A new player is often confused that they actually have to design mines, there is after all only one component -- the warhead.

MM seems to have left it open to be modded, for example cloaking devices, sensors etc would be needed to get them to work. And people have already done this.

I don't think we have to toss them out of the game entirely just because they don't make sense.
That is a common complaint for role-playing type games, and it really isn't a good arguement.

Some hard code changes to make them more random in effect are worthwhile and worth waiting for.
