📋 About This Mod

Safer Bombs.

All options are customizable via the config menu or GMCM. This affects all bombs, explosive ammo, and napalm ring.

Bomb Protection Settings:

  • []Player - Bombs will not affect player health.

    []Craftables & Tappers - Craftables will not be destroyed. Tappers will dislodge from trees instead of being destroyed.

    []Flooring - They will not be dislodged by bombs.

    []Crop

    []Grass

    []Trees - Protects all non-Fruit Trees but not Tappers on trees. Turn on "Craftables & Tappers" and/or "Trees with Tappers" to save Tappers.

    []Fruit Trees

    []Trees with Tappers - Set this if you only want to save Trees with Tappers and destroy all other non fruit trees. Turn on “Trees” to save non-tapped trees as well.

    []Foraged Minerals/Plants/Mushrooms - Also protects Artifact Spots.

    Vanilla behavior for breakable containers (bombs will break them open spilling contents), rocks, twigs/logs, and monsters.

    I blew up my sewing machine by accident so I made this.
