Many others will benefit from this thread, designers and players as well. You ought not to place an IED close within 100m (what is the blast radius, I'll have to test that) of friendlies either (as a designer).

PITA indeed!

BTW,I read an article where the Tanzanians are training rats to sniff out (detect) mines, and Mozambique as well. Apparently, they're (the rats) too light to trip a detonation.
