Cant find out how to detonate c4?

[Apollo]

I literally cant find this detonate button or any image or video of how it is supposed to look. I throw the remote c4, and then there is nothing to click or any skill to use to detonate the c4. Im super lost

I combined the detonator with the c4 to make the remote c4, but then I throw it on the ground to use it I cant find out how to blow it up. If I try to click on it it only disarms it.

Did you try using a remote?

I'm lost as well regarding this. There are no actions available whatsoever when it comes to initiating remote explosives and the remote itself is completely inactive. Maybe the developers simply forgot to program this part of the game in? Kind'a weird if that's the case.

The character with the remote in their inventory has a an action on their hotbar.

Oh sweet, thank you! I can't believe I overlooked that. I guess I was just used to the way that JA2 did it.

You have to add a remote detonator to the C4. Explosives like the C4 need something like a detonator. Combining timers with C4, they will explode after a few seconds, but you have to find a remote detonator and combine that with C4 to make it go boom.

Yeah, so I was curious about this as well.

So far I have found:

3 different explosives
remote trigger
timer detonator

So I can make a bomb on a timer (seems of limited value -- principally just for doors), but I assumed I need more than just a remote trigger to 'combine' with the explosive. Is there a remote detonator item that I have to build or find?

Or do I 'combine' a remote trigger with a timed detonator to 'pair' it, so to speak?

Its confusing, but there's the 'remote', which you just need one, and the 'remote detonator', this is what you use to combine with explosives. And you just have to find it...Later? I *know* there's a place I've gone to that sold these parts but right now I can't remember where it was. It was some table labeled 'explosive parts'.

After combining to make it a remote explosive, you just throw it and there will be a hotbar action to press your remote, and boom.

Ok, so there are three things need for remote triggerable booms. I just haven't found them yet, cool.

Clarified, thx.

The remote in my screenshot above seems to be a guaranteed find on the starter island. It has been there every time I did a restart.

yeah i think the fort on starter island(very right side), if you sneak up the left side of the fort with all the mines and climb the ladder there's a lootable under the stairs that usually has explosive parts.
