Currently two features in the mod can be listed under this topic.

Tank threads change according to the terrain season. They are either normal or snowy if it's a winter terrain.

Launcher backblast is dangerous.

If you stand too close and too directly behind the launcher tube when it is fired you will die.
If you're lucky and happen to be outside the “kill zone” you will be knocked out and damaged.

You can shield yourself by positioning yourself so that there is a solid object object between you and the blast. But make sure your head is not peeking over the object or it will get mangled..
Elevation protects you only if there is ground between you and the blast, or if you're in high enough position to be above the “damage/kill zone.”

If the launcher is fired inside a solid structure it becomes more lethal, the smaller the room the more lethal it is. If you fire a launcher inside a too small of a room you will damage yourself, small enough room and you will die. Same goes for anyone occupying the same room.

This is sort of passive and active at the same time.
Depends on which setting you choose to use, found in the Mod Settings.

• Auto

  The single use launcher is disposed automatically after it has been fired. Default setting.

• Manual

  You have to drop the launcher manually via the action menu
