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.

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.
