📋 About This Mod
How do Smart Grenades and Smart Mines work?
Whenever you activate a Smart Grenade or Mine, it will cycle through your available items and choose the next available in real time. If you assign them to hotkeys, you will never need to enter your inventory again. If you throw your last grenade/mine of the equipped type, the Smart Item will automatically select the next available item of the same type. If you don't have any more, it will equip the other type. Make explosives easy!
