Explosion Launch

Explosion Launch adds controlled player movement to How To Fish explosions. When dynamite detonates near a player, it launches them both upward and away from the explosion, making explosive movement and trickshots possible.

Features

• Explosion knockback follows the explosion's horizontal direction.
• Every explosion provides a visible minimum upward launch.
• Horizontal momentum lasts long enough for a smooth airborne trajectory.
• Horizontal speed is capped to prevent launching outside the map.
• Explosion damage and the game's original explosion handling are preserved, so make sure to disable friendly fire.

Installation

Drop the built DinamiteExplosionLaunch.dll into your BepInEx plugins folder. There is no config file or settings menu; the launch values are fixed for a consistent experience in every lobby.

Requirements

• BepInEx 5.4.x
• How To Fish

Compatibility

Works alongside other BepInEx mods. The custom movement logic is activated only by the game's explosion knockback RPC.
