- Hold it in your hand, aim at a distant target, and right-click to fire.
- Two TNT projectiles will launch simultaneously. Stand well back — the explosions are enormous and detonate the instant they land.
Overview
The Twin Tnt Launcher is a hand-held, twin-barrel explosive weapon. A single right-click launches two high-speed TNT projectiles in a wide side-by-side spread. Each projectile arcs through the air under gravity and detonates the moment it hits any surface or entity. The blast radius is massive, capable of destroying virtually any block — including bedrock — so the weapon demands careful aim and a safe firing distance.

How To Use
- Fire: Right-click while holding the launcher. Both barrels fire at once with no cooldown, so you can fire again immediately.
- Spread: The two projectiles launch with a slight horizontal spread, covering a wider area than a single shot.
- Flight: Projectiles travel at extreme speed (~500 mph) and arc gently downward. Lead your target slightly for moving entities; at range the drop is minimal.
- Impact warning: On impact, a brief electric energy-dome particle effect flashes at the hit location just before the explosion — use this visual cue to judge blast coverage.
- Explosion: Each projectile detonates instantly on contact with a very large explosion (blast power 475). Both explosions fire in rapid succession from their individual impact points.

Abilities And Mechanics
Bedrock-Breaking Explosions
Each TNT projectile's explosion is powerful enough to destroy bedrock. This applies in any dimension. There are no block types immune to the blast.
No Cooldown
The launcher has no use cooldown. You can fire continuously as fast as you can right-click.
Energy Dome Preview
At the moment of impact, a sphere of electric-spark particles and end-rod particles briefly appears around the blast site. This gives a split-second visual preview of the affected area and serves as a warning before terrain is destroyed.
Low Gravity Arc
Projectiles have very low gravity (roughly 0.03 blocks/tick²), meaning they travel in a fairly flat trajectory at high speed. At short-to-medium range they fly nearly straight; at extreme range they begin to curve noticeably downward.
Progression And Strategy
- Always fire from a distance. The blast radius is very large — standing close to the target will kill you and destroy the ground beneath your feet.
- Use the spread to your advantage. The two projectiles land a few blocks apart, so aim at the center of a group of mobs or a wide structure to maximize coverage.
- Avoid enclosed spaces. Firing indoors or underground will almost certainly collapse the surrounding area and trap or kill you.
- Bedrock demolition. The launcher is one of the only ways in-game to remove bedrock. Plan any bedrock-removal work carefully before firing, as the blast is uncontrolled and wide.
- No ammo cost. The launcher consumes no TNT on use, so resource management is not a concern after crafting.
