Explosive Jars Do No Damage To Players or Buildings After 2.4.6

Game mode: Online private | Single-player
Type of issue: Bug
Server type: PvE
Region: East USA
Mods?: No
Edition: Steam


Bug Description:

Explosive Jars do no damage to buildings or players either via explosion or fire. Tested on both admin and regular players on both Private Server and Singleplayer.

Demon Fire Orbs also do not do any player damage.


Expected Behavior:

Explosive damage to both player and structure.


Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Place Explosive Jar
  2. Stand Next to Explosive Jar
  3. Detonate Explosive Jar

Are ‘Can damage player buildings’ and PVP ticked on in singleplayer?

Yes. Regardless, in the case of PVP, explosives should damage the player who placed and ignited them, correct?

Yeah, avatars versus a sandstone block in sp don’t work either. Tad annoying when you wish to demolish old structures. Tried checking decay timer in sp to see if that has any effect with explosives inability to damage anything?

I tried with and without decay, increased the damage to buildings, and turned off friendly fire.

Post is flagged PVE.

I can confirm that explosive jars do not damage players on my server when PvP is turned off. They do damage players with PvP on + Building Damage off.

It seems that the damage from explosives counts as PvP damage and requires PvP to be active. I am not sure if this has always been the case but I am pretty sure you used to take damage even on PvE servers. The fact that they don’t damage buildings on PvE and PvE-C is working as expected, these type of servers don’t have building damage enabled.
