Dark Forces Hints
IM Mines
What can I say? -- they're mines. If you lay the mines down normally, they will detonate after three seconds. If you press the Z key, you'll set the mine to proximity mode, and when anything comes near it, it goes KABOOM. A Stormtrooper will happily walk over one without thinking twice. Still, setting traps for enemies is something that would be better left for multiplayer, and since there *isn't* any multiplayer mode, chances are you won't be using the mines a whole lot.
