This feeling. You are flying a stealth mine launcher ship trying to do damage undetected. Then, out of nowhere you are either hit by a single missile or your own mines (yes this happens).
Your external modules take damage, including your minelauncher and start to malfunction sicne you don't have a shield.
Why don't you have a shield? Because you crun cascade miens that damage shield generators and are in silent running anyhow.
What happens? YOur mine launcher malfunction causes your mines to explode inside their launchers, further damaging all your external modules.
This is a death sentence and even when stacking MRPs you can't protect your external modules.
While I'd propose to change module damage (especially from missiels and explosives in general) completely I just wanna start with changing mine launcher malfunctions to not exploding mines after 2 seconds. Atleast make it that they get stuck and if we fire again (own fault) we get an explosion on our ship but this way the only way of protecting our modules is simply not using them ... which defeats the purpose of protecting our modules.
Furthermore, increase the power of the launchers so the mines actually fly past my ship and don't get stuck on some antenna or engine intake.
