Not really, seen as he is one of the biggest fanboys of XTA and regularly calls people noobs over less. There's no real malicious intent.

This I like. making them able to assist others makes them to powerfull and would require it to be more expencive. I'd reather have it remained cheap but be able to reclaim. People underestimate the usage of mines anyway.

Don't reason that way. That's the way I reasoned a while back. If something's GOOD and you know it, it's just underused, you do not bump it up to make it get used.

maybe if minelayers could assist/repair/reclaim they would get used more

good point. we cannot attemp to let every unit in a mod to be evenlly used.
How does the mine layer handle obstacles like trees currently? if you want a mine on that spot, does he reclaim the tree and place the mine, or does he ignore the command?

I hope this won't cause you too much trouble but please choose a new name. Absolute Annihilation is the name I've chosen and used for 8 years. I've said a couple of times that sometime in the future (June?) I'd like to make a new version with everything fixed that I left broken. How's it going to work if I release AA version 2.3 when "AA 5.0" is kicking around?
