Not quite sure what you mean.  Why would you not just camcreate a few different types of explosives and see which you prefer?

no i mean like, have a trigger, and detect if there are any explosions in it, and also find what type they are for use in a script.

like if a grenade went off it would give the script, the exact pos the grenade exploded, and also that it was a grenade

Fired event handler on all units, I suppose
Then check the _this select 2 or 3, if it's in an array of explosive stuff (Hand Greandes, for example), track the object till it's destroyed, then theres your explosion..
Not very CPU-freidnly, but only way I can think of just now..
