Description

A collection of all of my TNT cannons! Please leave a diamond if you enjoy or use one!
All cannons should be functional in 1.12-1.17+ but were designed in 1.16.5.

All of these cannons, aside from a few potential ones in the future, work in Vanilla Minecraft and require no mods, plugins, and/or add-ons in order for them to function. I primarily design them with adjustable trajectory/arc which allows you to control the angle of the shot as well as the range but I also upload some which allow you to adjust the propellant load of the cannon.

A short description of how it works is that the trajectory of the gun is controlled based on pulse length. The shorter pulse means a lower arc, while a longer pulse means a higher arc. This is because the arc of the gun is created by controlling the point in which the projectiles are dispensed and dropped rather than just having them sit on a stationary mounting block like a fence, slab, or ladder. The point in which the projectiles are at in their drop when the propellant explodes controls the arc of the cannon. A shorter pulse results in the projectiles being dropped sooner allowing them to fall more and reducing the arc while a longer pulse makes them drop later and reduces the amount of drop they have at the point in which the propellant explodes.

All the work in the gun has been done for you and all you need to do to use it is to insert them into you build! You can even wire multiple cannons to a single trigger to adjust all of them at the same time.

Enjoy!
