Great, thank you very much!

Just had a look through my script and i believe if you have 'pls work true' it just means on that pass of finding a suitable place to put a minefield it has found a good spot.

" if(true in _inBase) then {_goodspot = false} else {_goodspot = true};
systemChat ("pls work " + str(_goodspot ));
"
If you're in debug you would see red rings on the map otherwise nothing.

Hello! I've got an issue where the module is giving an error, 'pls work true' after launching a multiplayer game from the editor and while in the map screen. I've tried bypassing this with the script as an alternative, however, the minefields do not spawn and the code stalls on the map screen. Do you happen to have a recommendation of how to get around this issue?

I have finally gotten around to adding safe zones!

Nice mod one request would be that you could link it to a trigger and in the trigger area no minefields will spawn or on opposite the trigger area is the spawn area. Would be great for big and huge maps.

Looks really useful thanks. Couple of clarifications though. How do you control which side the mines are set to attack or are they set to attack any unit? Is there a way to set an exclusion zone eg player starting position?
