Ok. Minefields, were indeed in dire need of help.
Ill use this one minefield as an example:
Old settings:
In one square kilometer, only one mine would spawn, at a depth between 131 feet, and 246 feet. First of all, your chances of running accross a single mine within one square kilometer is pretty much non existant. Second of all, your chances of running accross it, at the depth it was at, is also, pretty much non existant since its depth is random. You'd have to have some pretty rotten luck to acutally see one, let alone hit one. This minefield itself would be 60 KM wide. As wide as it is, its still pretty sparce.
New settings:
This same minefield after i monkeyed with it, will have 6 mines spawning, every 1 square kilometer (as opposed to 1 mine). It will be at a depth between 65 feet, and 246 feet. So your chances of hitting one are much greater. Although, the odds are still in your favor taht you won't. This minefield, ive reduced in width to 11 KM wide. So while its much thinner in width, its much thicker in density.
This could get intresting if aircraft are nearby. Your pretty much safe from mines at periscope depth, but you risk being spotted by aircraft which can bomb you at that depth. hey, the minefields only 11KM wide though! :rotfl:
