.TH Command LMINE
|
|
.NA lmine "Mine a sector with an engineering unit"
|
|
.LV Expert
|
|
.SY "lmine <UNIT> <NUMBER>"
|
|
This command causes a unit with the engineering ability
|
|
to lay mines in a sector. (see \*Qinfo Unit-types\*U). If you ask to
|
|
lay more mines than the unit is carrying, then it will attempt to keep
|
|
resupplying itself until all of the mines have been laid. It costs
|
|
1 mobility point per mine laid, so an engineer with 20 mobility can
|
|
lay a maximum of 20 mines. The 'strength' command will list how many
|
|
mines you have put in each sector.
|
|
.s1
|
|
See \*Qinfo Hitchance\*U for the chance of something hitting a land mine.
|
|
.s1
|
|
If a defender in land combat has land-mines in the sector, he
|
|
receives a bonus to his defense. See info \*Qattack\*U for more information.
|
|
If the attacker has engineering units with him, the bonus is less.
|
|
.s1
|
|
In the command syntax
|
|
<UNIT> is the number of one of your units and <NUMBER> is
|
|
the number of mines you wish to lay.
|
|
That number of shells, (assuming you've got them),
|
|
will be dropped in the sector that unit occupies,
|
|
magically becoming mines.
|
|
.s1
|
|
You need not fear mines in sectors that you are the old owner of. This
|
|
is normally all your sectors. When you capture a mined sector, however,
|
|
you will need to worry about those mines until you become the old owner
|
|
of that sector. Once you are the old owner of a sector (i.e when you
|
|
get the message "Sector x,y is now fully yours."), you have the mines located,
|
|
and will no longer hit them.
|
|
.s1
|
|
If you are in a captured sector, and the original owner attacks, you will not
|
|
get the mine bonus (as he knows where all the mines are)
|
|
.s1
|
|
Mines can only be removed safely by a unit with the engineering ability.
|
|
(Other units can remove them by hitting them, but...)
|
|
Engineering units moving through a sector with unlocated mines will
|
|
attempt to remove them. The number of times each engineer sweeps for
|
|
mines is equal to 2 times the number of mines it can carry. The
|
|
chance of the engineer finding a mine on each sweep is equal to 50%
|
|
times its 'att' value (see show land stats). If an engineer sweeps
|
|
more mines than it can carry, then it will drop the rest as shells
|
|
into the sector.
