(Bug) tank shells detonating mines

Currently, tank shells that pass over hostile mines will detonate them literally 100% of the time as if the tank shell is actually hitting the mine. The shell is destroyed in the explosion as well. This is obviously a bug, as the shell should really be passing over the mine most of the time that this happens.

Never noticed that, but any kind of AoE will trigger them, even smoke shell.

Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

Good Stuff here

This is why I am not liking mines as much in this game, any kind of explosive seems to be magnetically attracted to them and wastes them (tank shots, mortars, artillery, grenades).

Yea, I agree with OP, I've seen a lot of stupid detonations. I don't think he's talking about AOE near the mine. I think he's saying if the path of a shell intersects a mine, the shell will detonate the mine even though the shell should just pass over the mine and go to its target.

T34/76 is NOT a joke on my hands; Maybe on your hands you make it suck shit? but on me, No. I can kill a stug with a little micro, go toe to toe with a Panzer 4. Is it a joke? LOL T34/85 is apparently a very good tank. But no one says it "one hit wipe" or elefant penetration; up to a point i think this little medium tank just have too much health and too much firepower with that fuel cost.

Even friendly overshots over mines detonate them...probably have to do something with the hitbox?

No, no, no, see, these are those magnetic mines that the germans were so worried about. They're so strong that they pull friendly tank rounds into themselves. They just have to replace the magnetic mines with normal ones and they'll be good.

"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?..The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and... the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough...We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

Caught in action again in Imperial Dane's cast today. Hopefully it's handled in this week's upcoming patch. I've heard they are aware of the bug.
