Loading

To load the cannon, right-click on the cannon with gunpowder pouches 3 times. Then, load your desired projectile (cannonball/cannister shot) by right-clicking at the front of the cannon.

• Cannonball: Can penetrate up to 4 blocks deep, mainly used for enemy fortifications.
• Cannister Shot: Special anti-infantry projectile that spreads like a shotgun but does not destroy any blocks.
