The first atomic bomb. July 16th, 1945. Raise and lower the device in its tower with controls on right. Makes a mushroom cloud with smoke and alt. velocity- if you use alt. velocity, and bomb casing fully dissolves. Try different heights of burst!

  It's good someone remade "The Gadget." You should make it an actual implosion type, not one that generates neutrons mysteriously from the center of the "The Gadget."

  Side note: In addition to adding alt. velocity to your display (pressure= red/blue, velocity= white), I've found that adding other settings make things look even cooler. Try the settings mentioned above, plus fire, blob, persistent, etc.

  @MinecraftTranquility: Plut in this game doesn't work as realistically as one would hope. You can always add the fire fx to your display mode though.

  the explosion should create a fire ball though

  @Anastasia_616 (Cont): Also at the Trinity site was a scientific control explosion- 100 tons of TNT, fashioned into a cube. The scientists ran tubing through the boxes and soaked them with radioactive particles, scaled to the 100 ton yield. For the purposes of this save, I did not include Jumbo nor this heap of TNT.

  The Trinity test did have 800 meters from ground zero a bomb shielding called "Jumbo" hung in its own tower. It was meant as a failsafe for "The Gadget", to save the plutonium in case of a fizzle. Scientists were confident at test time, so they didn't use it.

  @Anastasia_616: The weapons effects testing series that involved structures and vehicles came after Trinity, you should check out operations Buster-Jangle, Hardtack, Upshot-Knothole.
