Explosion Bias

(Up to Game logic)

Explosion Bias is the name given to the feature that lowers the centre point of an explosion in order to make worms fly up into the air when the weapon detonates on their head. This was an editable property of each weapon in Worms 2, however the ability to edit this was removed in future games.
