About Explosive Fuels

From Factorio Mod Portal

Nuclear fuel and rocket fuel are extremely dangerous substances! Anything containing them will explode when destroyed (trains, machines, chests, furnaces, etc)

Makes anything containing rocket or nuclear fuel explode when destroyed. This includes chests, trains, machines, furnaces, etc. Rocket fuel will cause a small explosion (enough to destroy nearby machines) but nuclear fuel will cause a full on atomic bomb blast.

Be careful about where you manufacture and store your extremely energy dense fuel!

Note: this only works with the two mentioned vanilla fuel items. I'm unlikely to have the time or effort to implement and test and maintain support for modded fuel items.
