Hub Cap Land Mine = 90
Tin Land Mine = 45

ok thank you

[Ad Massive]

Yeah Air filter is great and doesn't do a lot of block damage if I remember correctly whereas hubcap does. I might be misremembering I tend not to use them especially because of their inability to be repositioned now. So I'm basically just laying a death trap for myself.

[Norton]

Air Filter Land Mine = 20 Block damage
Hub Cap Land Mine = 15 Block damage
Tin Land Mine = 10 Block damage
So air filter land mine does the most block damage, but only a tiny difference.

a16 blocks.xml

Note some do double damage to Zeds.
Also, each mine has an entity and block explosion radius (look in the file to see!)

<block id="431" name="mineCandyTin">
<property name="Explosion.BlockDamage" value="10"/>
<property name="Explosion.EntityDamage" value="45"/> <!-- damage for entities in the center of the explosion. Zombies take 2x

<block id="432" name="mineHubcap">
<property name="Explosion.BlockDamage" value="10"/>
<property name="Explosion.EntityDamage" value="90"/>

<block id="433" name="mineAirFilter">
<property name="Explosion.BlockDamage" value="10"/>
<property name="Explosion.EntityDamage" value="180"/>

<block id="1408" name="rScrapIronPlateMine">
<property name="Explosion.BlockDamage" value="10"/>
<property name="Explosion.EntityDamage" value="75"/> <!-- damage for entities in the center of the explosion. Zombies take 2x

block id="526" name="mineCookingPot">
<property name="Explosion.BlockDamage" value="10"/>
<property name="Explosion.EntityDamage" value="85"/>

The air filters are pretty hard to find though. Hard to get a lot of em.

[dreamdancer642]

If those values are right, and only the weaker 2 mines deal double damage, in terms of zombie killing the pressure plate mine seems like it would be best. Almost as much damage as an air filter mine, but much less to you if you derp into it, and easy to make. That is, unless your intent is pvp protection.

[dreamdancer642]

Though as of a15, you could craft air filters with the workbench, so it's not really a big deal.

[Gut Instinct]

I recon any mine on top of a buried gas can is biggest bang =0

This.
Also consider, as mentioned, that they have differing explosion radii.

In blocks.xml; take a look yourself. ("if those values are right", indeed!)
