Question Can I make different TNT? Community Answer You must have mods to do so. I vanilla Minecraft, there is only one type of TNT. If you want more, download the “Too Much TNT” mod.

Question Do red stone rails blow up TNT? Community Answer No, but if you use minecarts with TNT, they will blow up when its either activated by activator rails or when it just runs out of track.

Question My TNT just disappears at the time it is supposed to explode. Why? Kenny Community Answer If you are on a server, especially a public server, its possible that TNT explosions have been blocked. This is usually to prevent griefing (trolling others by destroying their structures).

TNT is great for clearing out large chunks of land when digging a mine, but be aware that theres a good chance youll destroy the majority of materials you would have gotten if you had used a pickaxe instead. Youll want to avoid using TNT near rich veins of valuable ore. ⧼thumbs_response⧽ Helpful 0 Not Helpful 0

Protecting yourself from a TNT explosion: If you (or a mob) are sitting in a minecart, you will have minimal damage from a TNT explosion. This can allow you to launch an explosion from considerable distance. ⧼thumbs_response⧽ Helpful 0 Not Helpful 0

If you want to strip mine the fastest way is to light a bunch of TNT stacks on a mountain and it will blow through showing you the contents. This is especially fun with ravines. ⧼thumbs_response⧽ Helpful 0 Not Helpful 0
