Description

Mod title

An addon for Alex's Caves that changes how you obtain and craft nuclear bombs, as well as improving the effects of nukes on the environment.

WARNING: It is recommended to turn OFF item drops from the nuke in Alex's Caves configs! Also setting the nuke radius in Alex's Caves to 6 or higher is recommended—the explosions have been optimized for larger radii.

Dependencies: Citadel, Patchouli, Cloth Config, Kotlin For Forge, and Alex's Caves (of course)


To get started, craft a guidebook using a book and alexscaves:uranium (Requires Patchouli). There is also EMI support for the new recipes and in-world block transmutations.

This mod adds:

  • Enriched uranium, rod, block
  • Overhauled nuclear explosion
  • Uranium enrichment process
  • Rocket launcher and rocket types
  • Uranium arrow
  • Uranium candy
  • New types of nukes (Mini-nuke, Neutron bomb, Black hole bomb)
  • Nuka Cola
  • Raygun MkII (And gamma variant)
  • Flamethrower
  • Railgun

How to enrich uranium:  

Smelt uranium blocks in an Alex's Caves nuclear furnace to get a Block of Salted Uranium. Then put that block in a Centrifuge and wait (will take a while).  Smelting uranium will leak radiation in the surrounding area so get your hazmat suit on to make sure the nuclear furnace doesn't overheat!

Server side performance settings:

Note explosions have been optimized compared to Alex's Caves. For weaker hardware, you can try the following settings, in order of greatest to least impact:

  • Turn off "Create glowing irradiated air" in nuclear explosion config (glowing air may cause light updates and significantly increased memory usage)
  • Reduce explosion radii for neutron bomb, black hole bomb, mini-nuke (nuke follows Alex's Caves configs)
  • Set effect cloud duration to 0 in nuclear explosion config

You may use this mod in modpacks!

Instructions on assembling the centrifuge: 4 centrifuge tops on a centrifuge base, then power the base. Each slot has independent 1/72000 chance of enrichment. Comparator output can be taken out of bottom block for fullness of output
