Proximity Mines?

Hi, a while ago, there was a tutorial somewhere on how to make a proximity mine. You used HHT and changed something of the flag with the tank shell. Please help. Thanks.

You could swap the readying effect or whatever to the scorpion shell's explosion effect, so when they pick up the flag (or a clone of the flag), they explode.

but then when they drop it youll get that "blue team flag returned" over and over and over and over and over and over again >_<

You could null out the flag returned sounds.

With phenomena's plugins you should be able to make any weapon do that. Just check the must be picked up (or something like that, takes up no slot probably is it) and in HHT set the ready effect to explosion.

You can pretty much disregard my post; DS's old tut is still greatness:

It's for vehicles, but it should work perfectly for weapons.
