Set Fuse Timers and Choose Instant or Sequential Detonation
The
Bomb Remote does more than trigger everything at once. It can set a custom fuse countdown, and it can switch between setting off all linked bombs together and setting them off one after another.
Setting the fuse
1. Link all the explosives you plan to use by right-clicking each one with the remote.
2. Open the remote's interface and find the fuse timer setting.
3. Adjust the countdown to the length you want. A longer fuse gives you time to retreat after pressing the button. A short fuse is better when you are already far away.
Picking a detonation mode
The remote lets you switch between two modes:
- Instant group detonation: Every linked bomb goes off together. Use this for one massive crater, or to flatten a large area in a single moment.
- Timed sequential blasts: The bombs go off one after another. Use this to clear a long tunnel or trench in stages, or to stage a dramatic chain of mushroom clouds.
Planning a sequence
1. Use the coordinate list in the remote to confirm the location of each bomb.
2. Place your bombs in the order you want them to go off. Then check the listed coordinates to make sure the remote has the right bombs.
3. Choose sequential mode, set your fuse, retreat, and press the detonation button.
Remember that each blast spreads radiation. A sequence of several bombs can leave a very large contaminated area.
