Explosion-proof objects

Several explosives, like Dynamite and Bombs, break placed objects when they explode. This page lists explosion-proof objects, i.e., objects that will remain placed when an explosion occurs.

Although these objects are themselves impervious to explosions, they will not shield other objects from explosions. Explosions will destroy any vulnerable objects within their radius, even if explosion-proof blocks are in the way.
