I planted some more mines and the old ones started to disappear! Whats happening?
Renegade has a relatively small, fixed, limit of 30 on the number of proximity mines each team can place. Engineer remote mines count against this limit, but timed C-4 does not. Generally speaking when you notice that limit has been reached you should announce “mines limit” and stop plating mines. Conventional gameplay strategy dictates that you should put no more than 3 or 4 mines at any base structure entrance. Mines placed on the ground in the middle of the map are useless since mines do almost no damage against vehicles. Hitting the mines limit is dangerous as the first mines to have been plonked down, which are usually the most important, are the first to disappear. Many servers will kick players who mine excessively and “waste” the mines limit.
