Love it when you place a proximity mine on the road with a dune buggy during a gunrunning sale...

STORY

...and that it destroys your nightclub delivery vehicle 1 hour later when driving on top of it

You're telling me not a single npc vehicle triggered it before I came ?.-.

NPC vehicles despawn when no players are in vicinity.

​

When finishing that mission always drop 10 mines in some safe place. This removes these mines from previous places.

Good advice. Alternatively if you know the location of all IE garages you can simply plant the 10 spread across each in front of garage where sale cars spawn

I remember when I did a business battle and kept throwing mines everywhere and after the business battle I would get a wanted level every 2 minutes due to someone running over the mines.

I've had some close calls with leftover mines, but lucky enough to not have lost a sale to them yet.

I did inadvertently blow up another player with them 10 minutes after a sale once, though. I had heard them beeping somewhere while I was flying back to my nightclub, but I couldn't find where they were left. A few minutes later, I heard an explosion and the little murder message popped up. They left the session immediately; I felt a little bad.

Had one of those where I killed a guy who was completely the other side of the map from me. We both had WTF moments about it. I later realised I’d dropped a mine round there doing a delivery but he’d gone before I could apologise.

Some tips for mines:

The hostile NPCs always attempt to drive on the correct side of the road.

Only leave one mine at a time, in a place you're sure it will be run over (IE 2 lane road, in the correct lane)

Count your booms

If you lose a mine somewhere, drop 5 right before the last checkpoint. It will force the old one to despawn. Then shoot the mines you just dropped to dispose of them safely.

I've done this in a solo session only it was a x80 I was exporting that got blown up

I was under the impression a fully upgraded NC delivery vehicle could eat at least a couple explosions without blowing up.

I shall be more careful from now on then.

It wasn't upgraded though

Why would you not protect yourself with armor at the very least?

I sell in solo lobbies so I don't really need to protect my vehicle...

This happened to me except with vehicle cargo. No 80k for me. :(

It’s awesome when mk2 griefers hit them while I’m in my speedo making nightclub sales. Upgraded Speedo is fast. They come down to ground level to keep up and don’t expect the land mines.
