How do Atomic Detonators work ?
A. These work like any other Item but you need to Land and Claim the planet you wish to use it on. If there isn’t too much population, using the ADetonator will blow up the planet. The more there is population on a planet however, the more chances they will disarm the Detonator before you remotely activate it at a safe distance. If the planet had any extra ships on its surface, they will also be blown up in the ensuing explosion as you attempt your best not to get caught in the explosion yourself. Since you claim ships left there by others when you claim a planet, it is best to check in your DATA–> ASSET list to see if you wish to Tow some of them away before you blow the planet up.
