Normal warheads not enough for you? Blast radii start at 100m and go up from there. Original explosion system allows for proper compounding of simultaneous explosions.
Added Elements
Blocks: Mini-Nuke (Small) (default blast radius: 50m)
Nuclear Warhead (Large) (default blast radius: 100m)
Nuclear Warhead (Small) (default blast radius: 100m)
Thermonuclear Warhead (Large) (default blast radius: 300m)
Nuclear Missile Launcher (Large/Small)
Projectiles: Nuclear Missile (default blast radius: 100m; range: 15km; arcs in gravity by default!)
Components: Enriched Uranium Core (used to build both warheads)
Overrides Vanilla Warhead (converted to use the same explosion system)
PRO-1 (Precision Hand-held Rocket Launcher; can shoot Nuclear Missiles)
*All elements can be individually toggled/modified in the Config.xml file
Compounding
Explosions will compound with each other and with any other explosions from the "Bigger Explosions" mod. Any explosions that are close enough to each other (and at roughly the same time) will combine to form a single larger explosion. So if you pack several armed nuclear warheads, a few vanilla warheads, and a thermonuclear warhead into a single missile grid and smash it into an enemy base at high velocity (with "Kinetic Devastation" enabled), then all of those explosions will combine into one massive blast.
Config Setup
This mod can be customized by making use of the Config.xml file that generates once the mod is loaded. Loading a file with this mod active creates a Config.xml file inside of the save folder (...\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Saves\<SteamId>\<SaveGameName>\Storage\2667815590.sbm_NuclearWarheads). You can edit the values in this file to change those values in game after loading back into the save.
Setup Steps: 1. Subscribe to the mod 2. Add mod to world 3. Load into world once to generate the Config.xml file 4. Exit world 5. Make changes to the Config.xml file at above location 6. Load back into world to see changes

Known Bugs: Nuclear missile currently has bug where it isn't visible to client players if it was launched from far away (outside their loaded range). Still fully functional in every other aspect; mostly only an issue for PvP since it might catch you by surprise. Will be working on a fix.
