Transparency of Land Mine Arming

Post by Winged_Shade »

TL;DR
Add some text to the land mine's description detailing how enemies can spot and attack them during the arming period.

What ?

I'd like to add a sentence right after "Explodes when enemies are nearby, damaging and stunning them." Something to the effect of "Is vulnerable to attack until it arms." or "Becomes invisible to enemies 2 seconds after being placed."
Why ?
A new player's first use of land mines may be against enemy nests, where spitters/worms can easily see and destroy them while arming. This can lead to players dismissing land mines as unviable, thinking that spitters can always destroy land mines. A short description about the arming period may lead to more players understanding land mines, and keeping their base defense options open.
