Don't Press The Big Red Button!

Edit: Still had problems with the red button remote. I overhauled it entirely, renamed everything, updated images, etc. and now it seems to be working again.

This mod was inspired by both Ren and Stimpy and Captain Blasto (a PS1 game). The sprite is based on the button design from Captain Blasto, and pressing the button in most Blasto levels will kill you (though some red buttons in a gew levels give bonuses) and there is a Red and Stimpy episode where Stimpy presses the history eraser button and kills everyone. True to its name, this button and its weapon variant will summon a projectile that one shots anyone it touches. There are limitations to the projectile's behavior. The damage is indiscriminate, but when summoned from the button object, it won't home on on hostile NPCs and monsters. When summoned from the weapon, it won't home in on some friendly NPCs, including yourself. It will kill everyone regardless so be careful that you aren't the target, but admin mode will protect you. The Ren and Stimpy cartoon referenced is here at about the 1:12 mark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhLFlIuuyMQ&ab_channel=JCH and the button in Captain Blasto is at 4:12 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w90wYtLV8HI&ab_channel=Cybernator

Craft the big red button and the remote weapon at the wiring station. Have fun exterminating villages. That'll teach annoying villagers not to get in the way of switches and your building projects! As shown in one of the videos, this weapon will even kill Erchius Horror. The projectile ignores defense, and will also apply a status debuff that sets health to 0 for any instance that an NPC is immune to standard damage outside of damage protected areas (like the Outpost). If anyone is good with lua, I will list you as a mod contributor if you can enable the red button projectile to bypass damage protected areas like the Outpost and modded areas like it.
