So the freezer can freeze land, water, hogs, mines, crates, barrels but not sticky mines.

This seems to be a strange omission.

Frozen sticky mines should simply not be triggered by nearby hedgehogs anymore, so they become harmless.

Rubber is an entirely different beast, discussed here: http://www.hedgewars.org/node/6250

Anyways, I discussed this with nemo recently. Nemo told me one main reason why sticky mines are not freezable is that nobody has really come up with a good behaviour for the sticky mine when it is frozen, besides just disabling it.

Nemo thinks disabling alone is a bit “dull”.

Sheepluva suggested the sticky mine could also just drop, after freezing, but I don't see the point of this since the sticky mine is disabled anyways, it does not matter if it still sticks or not.

I think not doing anything is the “dullest” of the possible options. :P

You mean, after being frozen, the sticky mine can take damage like dud mines do? Interesting idea, this could make for funny chain reactions.

francot, sticky mine is a normal weapon. try setting Crazy mode, and you should be able to find it easily enough in the weapon list.

It is also in weapon sets like highlander. In source it is defined as amSMine.
