Summary0002469: Mine sizes
DescriptionWhen we lay some mines, we're unable to see anything because of them. Their icon is too big, and the cloaking circle also blocks the sight aswell. And zooming out doesn't help, their icon is still to big.

Can it be replaced with tiny ones? Not the actual graphics, just the things you see when you zoom out.

When the size of a far zoom icon is too small, that causes other confusion for players when placing them. I'm open to discussion here, but want to hear from more players before I change anything.

Maybe a way to hide mines when zoomed out? Or grouping them in bigger increments? (can't remember the exact option name, the one causes unit icons to group up as you zoom out).

Aside from that, I place mines when I zoomed in, to place them close. Big icon also causes bigger gaps among them. But in a battle scenario, I cannot see much due to minefields. As I've said, their "cloak circle" has a big role in that aswell as big icons
