Here is a samll disccusion thread for machines you have made, desighned, or perfected. It can be aynthing from a simple cobbletone genarator or a complex piston contraption. You may provide pictures, links, vids, ect. You can also ask for help on desighns and give constructive criticism.
Pretty much just redstone disccusion.
and BTW, does anyone have a good desighn for a self-reloading cannon?

Considering how quirky redstone can be, especially repeaters, autocannons are generally unreliable, and prone to misfires and premature booster explosions, or late payload explosions can easily destroy your work if you're not careful. Make sure you have a "Kill switch" that stops the payload and booster lines IMMEDIATELY (Normally something that activates every repeater in a clock, so it can't cycle. Or have a piston that disconnects the wire that connects the clock to the pistons. However, if you want to try, make a piston line (8 blocks wide is standard cannon length. Gives you the most power) And use sand after all your TNT is placed, a huge tower of sand is unsightly, but it falls into the receiving area, that then pushes the additional TNT payload blocks. Be VERY careful though, TNT can get jammed in strange places and blow the entire thing up if you're not careful.

It requires a lot of work, and make sure to start simple. Make the actual auto-cannon before you start adding fancy stuff and aesthetics. I've learned that the hard way.

Also, self rebuilding walls are the best thing ever. I hope you know that.

By a self reloading cannon, do you mean a semi-automatic, because that is not hard, just a spring loaded clip, a system that resets the firing pin and, other thing whose name i can't remember which just strips ammo from the clip, and pushes them out of the way so another bullet automatically enters the chamber above the clip, to be stripped and pushed into the breech/firing chamber.

I have NO idea how to use redstone. I can only make torches and music boxes. The most complicated non-crafting thing I've made is an incinerator that's very "glitchy".

I still don't have MC, but I have a basic idea of how Redstone works. I was thinking, has anybody thought of making a vat of lava (instead of boiling oil like in reality) over your castle that would have an Iron Door that would be triggered by a switch? Then the oil (or lava in this case) would be dumped onto any intruders.


If I said that in some way that you didn't understand, I can re-word it.

Wait. what?

Are you sure you're talking about the right game? I've never heard any kind of terminology like this used in Minecraft Cannon development.

Well, it's not based of MC, it's based off true history. :/ Medieval kings would hang pots of boiling oil over the entrances of forts, and then when intruders would approach they'd pour the oil all over them. I was asking if it'd be possible to do the same thing in Minecraft but with Lava instead of Oil.
