Overview
The Rocket Launcher is a ranged explosive tool that is unlocked through Research (Tier 4, 2000 Gold)
It can destroy some terrain that is impervious to smaller digging tools (such as Crackstone).
Mechanics
The Rocket Launcher fires a missile that travels slowly for a short distance before accelerating quickly. When the missile collides with a solid surface it explodes in a wide, roughly circular area of damage.
Initially holding 3 rockets which are slowly automatically reloaded, both the magazine capacity and reload time can be improved through upgrades.

Upgrades are purchased with Fluxite.

| Quick-Load System | Reduces the time it takes to reload | 2 | 500 |

Tips
The missile can travel around 55 tiles before it will despawn if it has not hit anything.
