Compound N is an Explosive in Barotrauma.
Functions & Usage
Compound N is capable of causing significant damage to both Creatures and structures in an area. It is exactly as powerful as UEX and is used to create Volatile Compound N, which has a limited lifetime. Unlike most explosives, it is made in the Medical Fabricator.
Compound N can be loaded inside Railgun shells ( Railgun Shell,
Physicorium Shell,
Nuclear Shell) and Depth Charge shells (
Depth Charge Shell,
Depth Decoy Shell,
Nuclear Depth Charge,
Nuclear Depth Decoy) to explode on impact and deal additional damage. It can also be placed and then remotely detonated using a Detonator.
It is not completely safe to handle - it may explode if it comes into contact with fire, and is susceptible to explosions. Storing in a Toolbelt or a Storage Container will protect from fire and prevent chain reactions.

Notes

Bleeding and a 20% chance of 15 additional
Burn.
