but the mine keep releasing it payload as soon as the first stage deploy the mine.
I tried to delete the way point after the first stage release the mine but the mine still blow and let the payload fly to the upper right for no apparent reason
so am i doing something wrong? using the msl launch button give me a launcher not ready due to transit error :P even i can launch it with my fc.

also is there a way to load up exact missile design? when i load it up in the missile design thing the sep range is always setted back at the default 150K so am not sure ....

How long did you wait after transiting jumppoint before trying to launch with "msl launch" button?

Perhaps it's bugged, haven't tried using it myself.

It doesn't appear that you've included a sensor in the mine design. 

Beyond that, what method of you using for deployment?
