— In-game tooltip

A fire bomb is a thrown bomb that can only be crafted by players with the Engineer profession.

Usage

Fire bombs can be thrown by holding RMB to aim and pressing LMB to release, where it will be thrown at the location of the mouse cursor. Upon landing, the fire bomb will start several fires in a radius of 6 tiles. The fires themselves will last about 10 in-game minutes, not taking into account any other objects or zombies caught in the flames.

Upgrades

The fire bomb has various upgrades allowing it to be triggered in several ways, rather than just thrown.

Sensor upgrade

The fire bomb with sensor has a motion sensor attached. It can be placed by moving to the desired location, then press RMB on the item in the player's inventory and selecting "Place Fire Bomb with Sensor" (this is different to "Place Item", which just places the item without arming it). Once placed, it will slowly beep 4 times before beeping rapidly and stopping. Once the beeping stops, the fire bomb is armed, and will be triggered if movement is detected within a certain distance from the fire bomb (without any warning). It's important to note that the character that armed the bomb can also trigger it.

There are 3 versions of the sensor upgrade, each with a different range before triggering.

Version Sensor range
V1 3 tiles
V2 4 tiles
V3 5 tiles

Timer upgrade

The fire bomb with timer has a crafted timer attached. Before placing, the timer can be set by pressing RMB on the item in the player's inventory and selecting "Set time before explosion". The time set is in real world seconds. The method of placing is identical to the sensor upgrade: move to location, RMB on item, and select "Place Fire Bomb with Timer". It will begin to beep slowly, once for every second, and on the last second it will beep rapidly before exploding.

Remote upgrade

The remote fire bomb has a crafted trigger attached, allowing it to be detonated remotely. To trigger, a remote controller must first be crafted. Then the remote controller and remote fire bomb will need to be linked by having both items in the player's inventory and pressing RMB on either the remote or the fire bomb and selecting "Link to ...". "(Linked)" will then appear next to the two items. If the wrong items have been linked, it can be reset by pressing RMB and selecting "Reset Remote Frequency" (both items must be reset in order to be linked to a new item). Once linked, the fire bomb can then be placed: move to location, RMB on item, and select "Place Remote Fire Bomb". Unlike the other upgrades, there will be no beeps, although it is armed. It is triggered by pressing RMB on the linked remote controller and selecting "Trigger".

There are 3 versions of the remote controller, each with a different range that they can be used to trigger the fire bomb.

Version remote range
V1 7 tiles
V2 11 tiles
V3 15 tiles
