("Mine Drop") These codes modify the Lay Mines and Lay Web Mines missions; see there for more information. They specify how many torpedoes to convert into mines:
- mdq converts 1/4 (quarter) of all available torpedoes
- mdh converts 1/2 (half) of all available torpedoes
- md1 converts 10 torpedoes
- md2 converts 20 torpedoes
- ...
- md9 converts 90 torpedoes
- md0 converts 100 torpedoes
mdq and mdh will truncate the fractional result of their computation, i.e. mdq on a ship with 15 torps will lay 3 torpedoes.
You can also use the Lay Minefield or Lay Web Minefield extended mission instead of this friendly code. These missions allow you to directly specify the number of mines to lay.
