About this mod

Adds "tactical timebombs"(items that can be set to explode in a set amount of time) to the game, a strange vendor below the bridge of 188 who both sells and makes them, as well as added recipes to make the bombs yourself(they all require 50 exploses).

Permissions and credits
Warning Please read here first: This mod isn't perfect. I consider it functional enough to be worth sharing but here is a list of things about the mod you should be made aware of before downloading.The timebomb is a misc item, and it functions by placing an explosion on it's location via script, which means a few important things.
  • The timebombs won't be taken from you when you are stripped of weapons
  • The timebombs do not scale with your explosives level
  • Factions will not know it was you who placed the timebomb no matter what(since the placed explosion has no faction affiliation)
  • Because of the nature of the script it is necessary you only drop one timebomb at a time


Summary: The aim of this mod is to provide an explosive that can be set to detonate in a given time, and to provide a variety of types of explosives with that function, due to the lackluster effects of the vanilla timebomb. There are 5 different types of tactical timebombs: Dynamite, Frag, Pulse, Plasma, and Bottlecap. These timebombs can be crafted via workbench with 50 explosives, or they can be bought of created from the mysterious man who stands under the bridge at 188. Here are the steps to use a timebomb:
  • Place the timebomb in the game world. You can do this by dropping one from your inventory or by placing one with console command
  • press your activation key("E" on default) on the timebomb
  • Set your desired time
  • select the "Activate Bomb Timer" button(You shouldn't do this until you are absolutely satisfied with the setting of your bomb)
  • When the bomb is about to detonate you will receive a message 

Installation: I don't know how to make mods compatible with nexus mod manager, if anyone can tell me how I'll happily update, but for now,  Dump this file into your data folder (Example: Cdrive/Program Files(x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Fallout New Vegas/Data)
