Deployment and Deactivation:
How To Deploy A Mine:
Take a M20 mine out of the box with an empty hand,
Stand on top of the tile you want to place the mine on,
Face the tile you want the mine to detect enemies on,
Click on the mine in your active hand.
Keep in mind that any mob that enters the mine's tile, or the tile it's facing, living or dead, will cause the mine to detonate unless they have an appropriate USCM/W-Y ID.
How To Deactivate Mines:
Use a multitool on the deployed mine.
Tactics:
Deploy the mines at where marines will likely be present/guarding (and within view range), thus more likely to result in a kill.
The trigger area is two tiles, the mine's tile and the tile it's facing. Cover the whole two tiles corridor instead of leaving one tile open.
Conceal the mines with (lit) flare, empty flare box, wood plank, unfolded roller bed, empty backpacks, etc.
Deploy the mines facing north or west, because they can easily be concealed with a lit flare.
Circuit Boards (10x)
Used for fixing various things that need circuit boards, such as airlocks, APCs, and or air alarms.
