The main tools and what they do
Table
Every sandbox activity in Nico's Mod starts with one of these two guns. Once you have props in place, the other items give you ways to interact with them more violently.
| Tool gun | places props in the world and lets you rotate and adjust them. |
| Physics gun | grabs props already in the world and moves them freely. |
| Guns and bombs | used for combat, explosions, and general destruction. |
| Ragdolls | physics-simulated dummy characters that react to forces and explosions. |
| Vehicles | driveable objects you can ride around the map. |
