Cool Vs Don’t Die From Explosions (AKA Explosion Nerf)

Unmodded behaviour
In the unmodded game explosions are designed to kill NPCs. They do between 0.25 and 1.5 of a normal NPC’s full health. The problem is that the damage is the same for the player. If the player is level 40, the game looks up the health of a level 40 NPC (5700 on Very Hard), and does that amount of damage (for a car explosion, for example), or as low as 0.25 that (1425 damage!) for a small cannister of CHOOH2. Armor also doesn’t affect explosion damage.

It might be possible to survive some smaller explosions at very low levels, but after that it’s completely impossible. The Blast Shielding perk in the Engineering tree (10/20/30% reduction to explosion damage) works, but is useless since the damage is still too high.

Explosion sizes (there may be more things that explode, and maybe some other multiplier levels I forgot):
0.25 NPC health: small CHOOH2 cannister
0.5 NPC health: tall CHOOH2 cannister, robot explosion
1.0 NPC health: car
1.5 NPC health: ???

What this mod does
Damage is scaled (for the player only) using NPC DPS instead of NPC Health. I find that NPC DPS is decently balanced throughout the game (goes from 50 at level 1 to 850 at level 50 on Very Hard) and it generally matches the player’s health and armor growth throughout the game.

(NOTE: the S in DPS is definitely not actually a second of gameplay. Enemies don’t do damage that fast, but an enemy with twice the DPS value does twice the damage per hit with the same weapon)

Explosions will do the full DPS amount for the given level, scaled by the size of the explosion as in the list above. So at level 40 on Very Hard a small CHOOH2 can does 25% of enemy DPS (617), for 154 damage (minus armor). A car explosion will do 100% of enemy DPS, 617 damage, minus an armor reduction (0.1 * # armor points). To survive car explosions at high level you need lots of armor and/or Blast Shielding!

The damage is also split between physical and thermal for the gas canisters (unmodded behaviour preserved in this mod), so any thermal resistance you have will apply there. It’s also scaled down if you’re at the outer edge of the damage range, as in the unmodded game.

There is also a knockdown status effect applied whenever you suffer damage from an explosion. In testing I found that sometimes this doesn’t work, but it’s rare (seems like the falling animation can be interrupted by other animations).
