Talk:Explosion

Other types of explosion?
This page appears to be written from the user interface point of view. I have categorized it there.

There are explosions and things that explode in nethack that are more limited in their area of effect and as far as I am aware don't display as an explosion in the user interface (ones I can think of enumerated below). Do we need some kind of disambiguation?


 * The exploding attack of spheres (excluding the gas spore which although spherical is arguably not a "true" sphere in the nethack sense)
 * The exploding attack of yellow and black lights
 * potion of acid when dipped in water
 * Cursed crystal balls.
 * trapped doors
 * land mines
 * alchemy
 * spellbooks (radiate explosive energy, but are not consumed)
 * Container traps
 * potions when destroyed by fire "boil and explode"
