Holy shit that is the funniest thing I've seen in a long while. Should set up a wall to blast it into

TNT doesn't do any damage when it's in water. You could easily ride it, but I'm not sure that the physics is the same when there's a player in the cart. It would probably just shoot you really fast along the rails.

Edit: Here's two videos. The first one is just a human cannon, and the second one has a guy getting in a minecart in front of his cannon.

I had assumed this was the basis of the whole cannon, but I noticed that you can see the animals taking damage as they launch... or is that just a graphic side effect from receiving force from an explosion (or crap like snowballs)?

Yep, exactly. When a player is hit by it the same thing happens. You hear the damage sound effect and your hearts blink, but no damage is done.

Ahh~, I see...

It looks like that self-launch had more of a glitch regarding maxing out the level height or something (although it looked like he was more than 64 above sea-level. It looked like he stopped dead in mid-air and wasn't actually just a shorter launch due to weight.

I wonder if you can make a barrel for the cannon to aim yourself better. I'd love for some one on a random server to just build a cannon aiming nowhere, launch some one, and have them build in the new land.

If they were easily controllable/predictable with a tutorial or something, it'd probably be my first excuse to just spawn a shitload of TNT on my server.

You know a lot of people have been playing single player but I have seen hardly any screenshots of the cool things built, so I guess I'll share mine.

This is my Greenhouse for anything growable, but mainly use it for wheat/sugarcane/cactus infinite supply place especially with the new dyes and cake recipes.

First I picked out a location near my spawn, in water so creepers can't blow it up, that and it looks cooler IMO.

Spoiler: show

Next I lay the foundation,...

Spoiler: show

After that I finish the edge and add infinite water hole so I don't mess up the water around my structure.

Spoiler: show

Next I encase it all with glass so I can start the next floor and so nothing can get in but me

Spoiler: show

Start the next level with the same pattern as the bottom.

Spoiler: show

Move infinite water to next level to save time and fill it up, then plant seeds and raise walls again.

Spoiler: show

And what it looks like, partially done... I still have a few layers to go as I do from bottom to top, wheat, wheat, sugar cane, cactus.

Spoiler: show

Anyone else make some cool stuff in singleplayer they want to share?

Here's my build which started as an underground rollercoaster/transport system and I just kept building (I blame INVedit)

Shows the start off in the distance and track leading to the station. As you can see I didn't actually get that far lol

Spoiler: show

Arrival and reception

Spoiler: show

First & second levels

Spoiler: show

Third floor, havn't decided what to do with empty space yet

Spoiler: show

Third floors 'basement' and departure (clouds ftl)

Spoiler: show

Oh and one of my underground wheat farms, I build one in pretty much every world

Spoiler: show

**Syntex** · 2011-01-19 01:38

Is that wheat farm really yours or you just copied the picture because I have seen that pic before.

Self-plagiarism, the worst offense.

**Jojimbo** · 2011-01-19 10:43

Whoops, forgot I posted the pic before ;;

**Syntex** · 2011-01-20 03:35

I decided to make the top level a place where I can safely harvest trees without my whole countryside being robbed of shade and saplings/torches everywhere.

Just need get grass to grow from ground level to up there, its gonna take a while.

I'll post some pics later.

**Shnaklaha** · 2011-01-20 08:58

Ha! Love those monsters. Shapeshifter is the scariest one >.>

I really want him to code in some real oceans or deep trenches. I want some occasional depth to oceans where you can't touch the bottom on a single breath.

I was recently chasing a squid through some open deep water and it has so much more potential with the big, scary, open, blue water... especially if there was something to fear underwater where you can't move worth a shit.

The game itself has a shitton of potential to go ANYWHERE (like i was surprised when i heard he was thinking about npc towns and such). If somehow we were given a crafting recipie for say....an airtank, BUT once it ran out you had to either throw it away or set it on redstone in open air to refil it or something.....if that was added then i would say go all for more underwater mobs AND underwater cave systems... would probably be super easy to make too since its basically just making open caves with water spawning instead of air.
