I love this - I would really appreciate if the wait time before the explosion could be tweaked.
This mod has a lot of potential, unlike normal bombs this doesn't destroy crops/foraging items, and doesn't seem to blow up hardwood logs and such.
I have no clue what it's actually doing internally, but it seems like there's some potential here for more bomb variety. Configurable bomb size? Configurable "what stuff this blows up"? Who knows. Seems possible to me based on how this mod seems to work so far. I'm excited for it and would love to see more stuff like this. I love bombs.
Only issue with the mod so far is that around ~9 flares being placed, it will start lagging super hard.
Also this mod seems to be causing some weird tiles to appear, that do nothing, but seem to be loading random sprites that change as you move around and take other actions. (Like a parsnip will load, but it's not actually a parsnip, just looks like one laying on the ground, then it changes to other random sprites.) Thankfully this hasn't caused any issues really, but it is a tiny bit concerning.
variable bomb size could be cool. im aware of the lag. i believe it's caused by how often the flare spawns the smoke. i'll work on reducing the lag. i've never seen the tile issue. can you screenshot?
Been playing with this more and having fun, only noticed one issue that's probably worth fixing - Right click should only place flares when you're not interacting with an object like opening a door, or going down a ladder.
FYI - I created my own for funzies test mod that just makes an explosion if I right click while holding an infinity blade.
Same parsnip icon issue.
I removed all mods besides the cheat item mod and my test mod, and issue persisted. So it's gotta be something to do with other mods / loose sprites or something like that, and I don't think the issue is actually with your code. Could just be something mucked up with my install. Sorry for the false positive but just wanted to let you know :)
works as a perfectly functional, more powerful bomb! as the other reply says, it cuts down trees, removes rocks and other debris, etc... also could be cool for games of battley royalley 2, as they cause enhanced player damage.

I know I have a buttload of mods so it's fine if it's just "Yeah, that's a lot of mods dude, one of those is probably why".
