BeamNG – ExplosionsNG

A mod that adds dynamic explosions to any freeroam adventure

This mod will work on any official map (and should work with modded maps) and with any vehicle (including modded vehicles). I cannot fully guarantee that this mod will play nicely with all modded maps and vehicles – please PM me if you’ve found oddities with any other mods interacting with this one!

This mod is in Beta – expect some bugs to be present, but for the most part it should be functional! This is something I started working on more than five years ago, before properly planning, designing and reimplementing in the middle of last year.

There have been so many technical challenges that have had to be overcome, that it has become so much more than what I initially intended. However, it’s now reached the stage that is finally ready for an initial release!

Usage and User Interface

Add the app to your freeroam layout (if you’re not sure how to do this, the official wiki has a good guide you can search for).

To start configuring new explosives (skip to 1:06 in the video above):

1. Click the + button
2. Select the explosive you want with the arrow buttons – change the preset too for a different variation!
3. Find a position you want to place the explosive; by either the current vehicle, camera, or a custom position
4. Add as many explosives as you want
5. Click the detonate button

Explosives

There are currently 10 explosives to choose from – some are shown below. Each explosive has its own tier and rank which indicate how powerful it is, along with stats and a description.

Hover over various parts of the UI to show a tooltip, which explain further details (such as what the property icons represent).

Chaos Mode

This mod comes with a chaos mode built in – simply select the mode, set the options you want, and activate it! Once active, chaos mode will randomly create explosives around your vehicle – perfect for free roam challenges with that extra bit of danger .
