Mining missions

Mine laying was a part of the uboat war and I have an idea how it might be simulated in the game. I just don't know how you modders would do it.

To simulate a mission to mine an area, a coastal zone is the mission target and the sub is prepared with an appropriate number of torpedoes missing. The type II were used in this role early in the war.

Getting into and out of the appointed zone and returning to base or resupply at sea is the goal.

In real life, the sub would not have any immediate result, meaning they don't hang around to see if any ship runs into a mine. The mining mission was one of the most dangerous of the war.

It should not be left out of the game.
