Explanation:
The missile is coming at Torque from in front of him. Normally, missiles
move fast enough that a cybug doesn't have time to turn to the side and
move out of the way. Torque uses the tactic of laying a mine in front of
him to take the brunt of the impact. This means that he still receives
some damage, but it is less severe.
If it is not possible to lay the mine, then he tries to turn out of
the way.
