Let the nuke actually blow up the station!

[CPTANT]

The time is right! Bomb code now doesn't lag at all.

Let the nuke spawn a 40/100/200 explosion so we can actually see the fruit of all those nuke ops blood sweat and tears!

[CPTANT]

And to make it even more awesome, let the inner destruction area be accompanied by a giant expanding fireball!

AWESOOOOOOOOOME

MSO said he would do this after bombcode got improved, shame it never came about

[CPTANT]

With the new bombs it would be awesome in general if there could be a visual shock wave spawned, it would really give more feeling to the expanding blob of nothingness.

This would be trivial code-wise. I tried out a (100, 150, 200) explosion, and at first, it looked as if nothing happened, then a huge hole appeared in the epicenter, very slowly expanding outwards as if there were an invisible, growing singulo there. When it reached the heavy damage radius, it ripped through the rest of the station much more quickly. There we some oddities, where runtimes resulted in certain pipes and grilles surviving intact.

All-in-all, it is certainly possible at this point! If you keep the cutscene intact, players will be returned to either empty space or the outer ruins of the station once it finishes.

We'd need to fix the whole "Diving through explosions to get off totally unharmed" bug for the nuke though

Game is already over, nobody really cares who actually lives and dies, it just has to look cool

That is why I mentioned keeping the cutscene intact. The explosion would happen during that, when players cannot move. If you wanted to go HARDMODE on this fix, you could generation explosion objects that apply their respective ex_act() on entered(). That would open a new can of bugs though, such as applying ex_act() twice on thrown objects and what not.

I think coders said that fixing it would at the very least put the lag back in, bugs aside.

This should so be a thing.
