Gunpowder

From Noita Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Gunpowder is a volatile powder that is highly flammable and potentially explosive depending on the variant.

Characteristics

There are 2 main variants of this material, one that explodes and one that only burns, but they are called the same thing when mouse-overed in the game. Generally speaking, the variant that spawns naturally is always the one that explodes, whereas the non-exploding variant comes from the Gunpowder Trail modifier.

Like most explosives, exploding gunpowder can set creatures on fire.

All variants of gunpowder can be dissolved with the Dissolve Powders perk.
