About time, those bots are thick when it comes to mines.

I have updated the mutator with one new feature. Look for download in first post.
New version can reconfigure teamlights of the mines trough menu.

Now you can see teamlights of mines placed by enemies and by yourself or turn off all lights of the mines.
To understand see screenshots:

In this screenshot all lights is on - you can see one mine placed by enemy, two mines placed by teammate and 3 mines placed by yourself. Your own mines is marked with white light.

<- The lights of your own mines are visible also in non-teambased gametypes. This screen shows Deathmatch.
Now you always can identify what mine is yours or not.

Very nice. Drastically reducing the number of bot suicides.

Small nitpick: 'show enemy beacons' doesn't work in non-team games. It seems intentional, but why disable that feature in DM-games?

This mutator also drastically reducing the number of PLAYER suicides

and increases the usability of mines.

Yes, this is intentional. Because in non-team games you must only know is the mine yours or not and nothing more because all other mines is your enemies by default. In team-based games all other mines have teamcolored beacons but in non-team games there is no teams. I can make for example green or any other-colored lights for showing enemy mines in non-team games but i think this has no sense...

nice! I do have the no-self damage mutator, so the bots wont suicide, but i thonk its really funny, just because they flip out at each other in team games, but it would be nice to disable self damaging mines, especially when you cant make team mines go off by standing on them, just not realistic that way!

I have updated the mutator for compatibility with BW 2.5.
And now the Show enemy mines beacons option affects also non-teambased gametypes.

New download link in first post.

I also thought about this. But for this i need a source code of the new weapons. If someone can decompile new BW, then i will try to make this.

We might be distributing the source code in the near future. We're extremely busy at the moment (and for a while), but we've put some time aside for it and a few other small tasks not directly linked to our immediate project

Thank you.

I thought you were away from Runestorm forever.

Can you also update Ballistic Team Loadout? Not sure if you already did, was on a rush looking this thread.

Blade sword · **Posted:** Fri Mar 18, 2011 7:10 am

he did

Scorpion_SK · **Posted:** Sun Mar 20, 2011 9:56 am

New update. Added support for M46 mines and options for separate enabling/disabling support of each type of mines.

<- New options

<- New light beacons of mines
Download in first post.

The M46 mines are balanced because of the delay and warning sound...

I'll be keeping an eye on the thread.

Blade sword · **Posted:** Sun Mar 20, 2011 11:17 am

Thanks for the update

Meatboy1 · **Posted:** Mon Mar 21, 2011 7:53 pm

Indeed!!! Thank you and you rock hard sir!!

Meatboy1 · **Posted:** Thu Mar 24, 2011 7:35 pm

Well it works great and turns the M46's mines into a wickedly useful tool. The lights on the mines look sweet also. Again thanks for the mut update.

StrikerMan780 · **Posted:** Wed Jul 18, 2012 7:01 pm

Unfortunately, this seems to not be working right online... No beacons appear, even when the mutator is loaded. In particular, the lights do not show...

Blade sword · **Posted:** Thu Jul 19, 2012 7:31 am

I wonder if there is a need to update the server packages

Grum · **Posted:** Thu Jul 19, 2012 10:48 am

It works online, we use it too.
Add it to the Server Packages as Blade said.

Oddly enough, I had it in server packages... and the lights still did not show. I've used the download at the top of the page.
