Minecraft Megathread; yeah its update 1.12 big whoop what about it

[NickTheSushi]

My plan:
The vault is divided into multiple sections and is filled with water, giving us more reaction time. Entering the vault by normal means or otherwise activates red torches around the fort.
Overlooking each vault section is a control room that controls the doors in and out with wall buttons. All of the vault walls are topped with piles of gravel.

Cool

I'm sacred I'm going to set it off somehow. :s
Well, it'll be cool actually being in one of those giant forts though :D

I'm not going to make a whole fort, but separate "testing rooms" for the different traps and systems. The fort alert system is very easy, if one block/wire of the outside perimeter/ vault, all the rest will light up and give power to the vault, releasing sand and water.

My 2nd room keeps exploding on me because i keep forgetting the water :<

Does TNT explode obsidian?

Yes

There's no way not to set it off. You only have reason to be scared if you're in there without permission.


Currently I'm setting it up so there will be no TNT traps simply because we wouldn't want the chests exploding. Also because I have no TNT and don't want to cheat for it right now.
TNT is better as a perimeter defense.

Those TNT launchers are just hilarious to me. I do hope we have those set up on our main fort. :D

I think I'll use pressure plates with tnt right under.

[A.R.C.]

Is it possible to make a trap that drops a stuff-load of sand/gravel on intruders?

They can still see the tnt so they can avoid it.

A slightly large explosion due to 3 tnt in the trap. I could do it in 2 but the large explosion was fun :D
