how to make explosives explode on contact without using the trigger?

[ArgentumRattus]

so I've been working on uncovering one of the huge ore veins which of course requires a metric ton of explosives to do. i don't know what I did but for a while the explosives were exploding the moment they touched anything which was really nice for what I'm doing but then...it stopped doing that and I had to go back to using the trigger. was that just a glitch or did I press a button i was unaware of? i can't figure it out and i can't find explosives in the info database to check if having them explode on contact is actually an option you can choose

You have to use the remote to blow the charges, however if you toss them, switch to the trigger and click before they land they will explode as the touch the ground/wall.
But if you are too far away, and the Charge doesn't land in a certain amount of time, it won't go off.

the thing is i wasn't using the trigger at all, they were exploding all by themselves as soon as they touched what I threw them at....so perhaps a glitch then?

that's really too bad cause it was awesome doing it that way cause those ore nodes are freaking massive!
