Mines don't know friend from foe, but neither do collisions in the real world.
It's a game and lots of things aren't like the real world. Killshooter anyone?
I see lots of projects and additions that would be better to spend time on than mines, but they could be implemented to add fun. Limiting the amount available @ each base/spawn, making them visible to friendlys (wouldn't they be mapped to avoid friendly kills in real life?) and having them expire would avoid many of the problems brought up.
No, please fix the current issues, add more planes, MAPS, etc before looking at mines. That said, this is the wish list so folks asking about everything from mines to a puppy for Christmas don't bother me. Easy enough to skip looking at the next 20 threads titled Mines, Land Mines, I Want Mines, Why No Mines?, etc.
