About this project
What does Big Explosives add?
Welcome to Big Explosives (Alpha!)
This mod is about adding in explosives Like Bombs and eventually Nuclear Missiles, While being as vanilla as possible
Alpha release v0.17 added in the atomic bomb.
Want to just destroy everything in a 40 block radius... welp this will do it for you, also basically oneshots everything close to it.
10kg Cluster Bombs
The 10kg cluster bomb drops 8 small bombs out of the sky, almost guaranteeing your target gets hit with minimal destruction on harder blocks.
250kg Bomb
A Smaller version of the 500kg bomb, worse in everyway, but its way cheaper and has 2 item uses.
500kg Bomb
500kg, the bomb everyone wants. Its big accurate and looks cool, downside is that it costs a big price.
UPDATE V 0.13
New Napalm Bomb and Napalm Cluster Strike
Napalm Bomb + Napalm Cluster: Wanna Blow something up without making Huge crators? Use the Napalm Bomb or Cluster Strike.
Now the bombs should work with any vehicle mod, What you use is the target designator, it allows you to call down any of the 5 bomb types within a 20 block radius of the call point.
