I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.

give them to player 12 (neutral).
-> they will not burrow, if unburrowed.
-> they will not unburrow, if burrowed.
-> they will not attack
-> they will not move

->They will smile at you unceasingly, like this:

None.

Nevermind on that last note, the spider mines must be owned by a Player that is set to neutral.

I'm not sure about this: Place multiple Spider Mines and have them find a target. I don't think they displace each other, so they'll continually follow their target without moving. The downsides are that they're always animating and making the walking noise, and that they'll blow up if their target moves to them.

None.

In order for a spider mine to stay unburrowed, the spider mine must be owned by Player 12. You have to preplace it in the map editor, or else it won't stay unburrowed. If you use a trigger such as "Give all Spider Mine owned by Force 1 to Player 12", the spider mine will burrow anyways. It is teh uber gay. >:O

Haha, thats the exact opposite answer someone gave on the same topic at maplantis. I must admit I don't know this detail for sure. The best is you just experiment what works best.
One thing works for sure though: They unburrow for a defeated player.

ok, I tested it....

1. giving spider mines from a player to p12: they will burrow.... :S
2. preplaced mines owned by p12 will burrow.... :S

the solution:
3. spider mines owned by a player who is not human or computer, he is neutral, will not burrow...

Well I tested the spider mine stuff with player "Neutral"
