Advandced Use of Remote Explosives

Description
To throw explosives, just select (Remote Explosives) instead of a grenade and throw it.

To attach the explosives to the object, stand close to it and select "Put (your Remote Explosive)" in the action menu.

To attach the explosives to the drone, stand in front of it, look at it and select "Put (your Remote Explosive)" in the action menu.

Known issues:
On some textures, explosives are attached at a wrong angle.
You can’t choose which explosives will be thrown by the unit (always throws the first in his inventory).
The drone should be known to the player, so after you assemble the drone, I advise to press "T" and only then put the explosives.
If you put the explosives, then deactivate it and activate it again, it cannot be touched off separately. Do instead: take it and put again from action menu.
This mod is only for [SP]. If you are a modmaker and can remake a mod for use in [MP], I have nothing against it.

If you have my mod "Remote EDs separate detonation" installed, you should not run it with this mod.

Great mod, fixes a big issue of the base game. I have some additional suggestions if posible:
1) Would it be possible to also include satchel charges?
2) Would it be possible that when thrown the explosives auto attach to objects the collide with?
So instead of having a "put Action" it is all handled by the throw and so one action is no longer needed ;)

Your are playing with Platoon Commander 2 mod, not Advanced use of Remote Explosives. Yes, your squad must put the charge and then move away some distance to detonate it.

1) Put in VR two Explosive Specialist units in one group (1 player and 1 AI).
2) Start your scenario, press Backspace, select AI unit (by pressing Fn + F2), go to 6 Actions, select Put Explosive Charge and put it.
3) Move your group away ~ 20 m, then press Backspace, select Ai unit, go to 6 Actions, then go to 0 More and select Touch off bomb #1

Actually it might be a distance thing or timer, it blew up after a certain amount of time or the unit go far away

I pressed it and the Actions option is Not applicable to be picked. I pnly have one squad and i wanted to blow up a vehicle. they plant the explosive but no action avaible to detonate

MFd00m1775, use group units action menu (press Backspace, go to Actions, put some explosives by some unit, then detonate it using the same menu)
