Explosives

The Explosives are a placeable, consumable Mechanism that can be detonated using Wire. Detonation causes a large explosion that covers a radius of ten tiles (up to 314 blocks total), destroying most block types and inflicting around 250 damage to entities. They can rarely be found underground in natural traps, and can be crafted.

Their damage is high enough to despawn killed players' dropped items, preventing them from being retrieved after respawning.
