ExtraBombs 2
With 42.13’s changes, a rewrite of the original mod was needed. I took this opportunity to move a few things around & add some new mechanics.
Makes taking the engineer profession worth more than just the free generator knowledge.
- A fourth level of remote trigger for extra long distance
- New Noise Maker as loud as a house alarm
- 7 New Bombs
- A new Workbench used in the creation of explosives
- Recipe magazine to unlock building the workbench
Nothing in this mod is locked or gate kept behind the Engineer profession BUT a lot of the main ingredients in the recipes are items that only the engineer can craft by default.
If you have other mods that get you access to craft or loot the vanilla Bomb items, or you research them or find the schematics then you’ll still be able to use 100% of this mod.
All the recipes are now located at a Electrical Workbench which can be found in the building menu in a new tab called Extra Bombs
A 4th tier of remote detonator, lets you activate from a safe distance (has a 55 tile Range) so you won’t get caught inside your own explosions
Flux powder, lets you make your own sparklers out of repurposed welding rods
Napalm Mix, Combine polystyrene & some gasoline, now thats some sticky flammable stuff.
Engineers Toolbox, Basic tools & components stuffed into a Toolbox, ready to be used in the building of an Electrical Workbench (The screwdriver & pliers in this recipe WILL be destroyed in the making of the Toolbox)
The power of a house alarm in your pocket.
Combine with the long range remote or set it on a timer to precisely gather the whole neighbourhood to one location.
Hmmm…. I wonder if a second long range remote linked to a bomb could be a useful combo.
A very small explosive (1 tile) perfect for setting traps at choke points like doors or windows.
Due to the small range only the close range motion sensor & a remote trigger can be attached.
Although small, its glass fragments can still one-shot anyone in range & could on rare occasions start a fire.
You are legally required to shout ”I cast Fireball” when using these.
These will cover every tile in range with fire, including buildings, loot containers & you, so you’ve been warned.
With Vanilla pipebombs now no longer starting fires, the Lunchbox bombs now is a combination of a pipebomb & a firebomb. Explosive Damage & fire tiles. (any resemblance to bottlecap mines is purely coincidence)
Makes use of either a smoke bomb or an aerosol bomb (good reason to keep hold of that useless insect repellent can) & a choice of shrapnel from nails to lego blocks.
Also available in Pink
These act like door breaching charges, very small but powerful explosion, causes fire damage to tiles but doesn’t start a fire. Great for making an alternative entrance to locked buildings/rooms.
What else were you going to do with those spare propane lantern bottles?
A large scale smokebomb, for when you need to loose agro from a large horde or hide during a PVP encounter*. Will cover the area of a propane bomb with smoke.
*Safety not guaranteed, smoke is not bullet proof
The pinnacle of pyromancy.
The average survivor couldn’t even begin to fathom the engineering genius required to conceive of the mind bending level of intelligence to think up such a weapon of war……. duct tape a Pipe Bomb to the side of a Propane tank.
Because of the range of the explosion you CAN’T throw it far enough to not be in the danger zone, so you have to attach a timer or a motion sensor or a remote trigger for it to work.
Whats that? You want the destructive power of the propane bomb but also want to scorch the earth to ash at the same time? Okay I got you.
The same rules apply as the regular Propane Bomb, just make sure you don’t care about anything caught in the blast range (or anywhere near by, fire spread is real)
Can be added mid-save, however finding the magazine will require either loot respawn or visiting a new location.
