Tune Blast Size, Expansion Speed and Radiation in the Config

If explosions are too big for your server or too slow to finish, the mod's configuration lets you scale them. The same goes for radiation that lingers too long.

Finding the settings

1. Close the game, or stop the server.

2. Open your instance's config folder and find this mod's configuration file. On a server, edit the server's copy.

3. Look for these options:

• max explosion radius: the largest blast size, set separately for each bomb type.
• radius step per tick: how fast an explosion expands outward over time.
• radiation: how strong radiation from detonated warheads is, and how far it spreads.

What to change

• Server lag or huge craters: Lower the max explosion radius for the worst offenders, such as the Antimatter or Hydrogen bombs. You can leave the smaller charges alone.
• Explosions that take too long: Raise the radius step per tick so the shockwave covers its full size faster. Lower it if large blasts cause stutter, because a smaller step spreads the work over more time.
• Radiation ruining a shared world: Reduce the radiation strength or spread, so blast zones are less hazardous and smaller.
• Hardcore challenge: Raise the radiation values so every detonation leaves a serious lasting hazard.

Change one value at a time. Save the file, restart, and test the result with a single bomb in a spare area before you use it near anything important.
