Default Mines

Has anyone tweaked mines to make them less damaging? I don't use them anymore, for better or worse, but I do miss them just not their unbalancing effect.

Ideally I'd like a max on the number allowed per sector, a % to avoid altogether per mine/per ship, a random damage per hit, and less damage per hit.

Also, does a minefield attack just one ship in a fleet until it's dead or are all of the ships subjected randomly? Do long range scanners see a minefield sector? If you know a minefield is there, why can't you avoid the mines? I understand "smart" mines, but what about good piloting?

I think there's a mod where point defense weapons work as sweepers. Can someone tell me how good it works?

Sorry about the number of questions, but being a turtle type player I like mines, just not the way they are implemented now.
