air traps don't get used if unit is killed first

One thing that keeps annoying me is that my air traps keep getting used, but before they detonate, the target is killed already.:mad: Usually my seeker mine. It would be nice if the traps could be re-used ONLY if that target is killed first. If multiple targets are available, then it should switch targets and go after one that is still alive and not already dead. Another thing that would be nice is if the seeker mine would target the strongest unit in it's attack range, and not the first one. Example: A dragon and balloon are both placed within range of an seeker mine, it would go after the dragon not the balloon, even if the balloon was the closest one.

Of course, once it is used, you still have to replace it like always, but it would be nice if they stopped detonating on nothing.

I agree the mine should target something else if there is something else in range. However I disagree with the other points. Once a trap is triggered. that's it. If it doesn't hit anything, that is unfortunate but kinda goes with the concept of traps.

Also it should not target the strongest thing. Nothing else in the game works that way. It should target whatever triggered it.

Good point

But once my air bomb trap triggered but did not explode and the battle ended. It was still there. XD

I also agree that if there is another troop in range, it should switch targets.

Frustrates me to see my seeker mine detonate on nothing knowing i will end up replacing it with 600 de. Especially when like all 4 of my seeker mines get used in defending an attack, yet only two of them are effective maybe 3? But yea, i don't think seeker mines should target the strongest troop nearby. they already improved the seeker mines in last update to not be triggered by minions which is a big improvement IMO.
