UPDATE: An awesome youtuber named PS360 Gamers has made a video showcasing my invention:
For a slower firing version that will almost never need to be reloaded, see the "Testificate Terrifier" Section below.
NOTE: This uses no redstone, pistons or new-age fancy pants trickery of any kid. It is powered solely by entities (cows). This will work for most mobs/entities, with a few adjustments.
NOTE 2: This requires the player to be in Creative, or to be extremely inventive with their cow breeding and moving.
Premise: After watching a video by Game Chap and Bertie titled "Cow Cannon" (found here: ) and being extremely disappointed that it launched the player instead of cows, I decided to play around with the invention anyway. While doing this I acidentally shot several cows, and set about trying to figure out what I did to do that. I worked it out, and decided to bring the burger-belting fun to the Minecraft Forums.
TL;DR: I figured out how to launch cows.
First of all, we are going to need a 3x3 platform, preferably high up, like so:
After we have built this, place a ring of blocks around the edge:
Now place a second ring, excluding one block on any side:
Now, place 2 blocks so that the hole in the middle is covered, just like this:
Now place a half slab or any other block that doesn't take up the whole 1x1 space, such as a ladder or trap door:
Now to "load" our machine gun. It is recommended that you do not attempt this on a lower-end computer, as I have recorded drops as extreme as 250 FPS to 120 FPS. To "load" the contraption, take your cow egg and right click one of the top corners of the inside box, like this (you will need A LOT):
Now destroy the block over your middle hole, as well as your half-slab (or other block):
And now we let the cows fly:
Once the stream of cows slows down, to "reload" simply replace the blocks that you destroyed earlier and re-fill with cows.
This projection of the cows is caused by the pushing that happens when 2 entities attempt to occupy the same spot, which you will have noticed when you walk in to a mob. The cows fly so far because of the sheer amount of entities, pushing it out at extremely high speeds.
If you want to make a video of this, please credit me and link to this thread. Make sure to post your video here and I will put it in the main topic.
The Testificate Terrifier: This one is reeeaally simple. All you need to do is build the normal player launcher (can be found in the youtube link near the top of the page) and a tube with a dispenser filled with zombie/skeleton/creeper/whatever eggs so that when activated by redstone, the creature falls down the tube and gets shot out.
Pros: Almost never needs to be reloaded Can shoot out any over world mob.
Cons: Slower firing than regular version.

GJ team, you have successfully ended the Enclave. The only other faction on the server, apart from the NCR. Who is headed by a whiny shithead, Rug, and filled with whiny shitheads. (I'm talking to you, 25th.) If you guys wanted to ruin your server, you could have let Hoyt stay, he would have done that well.
And you know what? Web isn't a good choice for elder because he is inactive. I don't give a single **** what his life situation is, if it's that bad, he should not be spending it playing a game, and people shouldnt ****ing force responsibility on him! You idiots talk like you are helping him by keeping him Elder! News flash, putting extra responsibilities on a person who is stressed is a bad idea.
You guys are so ****ing concerned with making all of these idiots who cry "KoS" every time someone kills them that you're ruining the experience for everyone else. I didn't KoS anyone, I told them before that I was going to kill them. And if you want to make a good ****ing RP experience, don't require that someone say "I'm going to kill you" and wait ten seconds before doing so. It's totally immersion breaking. And let me give you a hint, because you guys are somewhat bad at understanding simple sentences, Player immersion is the point of RP. A crazy concept, I know, but let it sink in.
Yeah, I'm whining. "Oooh my immersion! Ooooh I'm banned! Ooooh you mods are against me!" But you know what? I dont ****ing want to come back to your server. Playing on this server has left a foul taste in my mouth, and shown me the worst extent of what pandering to the unskilled can be. I have no desire to be unbanned, and I have no desire for further contact with any of the staff on this server.
As a final note, the only reason that the Enclave "Stirs up ****" and the NCR doesnt is that the Enclave actually goes out and does ****, whereas the NCR simply sits in their base all day, perfectly content to be self contained. Guess what? In the lore, the Enclave doesnt like the NCR, so in reality, I'm following the lore and RP better by attacking then they are sitting around with a thumb up their ass! Remember how the NCR actively went out and annexed towns and other places? I do. But that never happens on this server, because the NCR are awful, and too much of pussies to actually attack anyone.
Alright, I'm done here.
Enclave hasn't started any **** for a while. Come to think of it, all of the factions are a bit to secluded (well, BOS is supposed to be).
We have had Legion for a while.
I'm pretty sure 25th isn't even in NCR.
Perhaps it should have less of a blast radius than TNT, should it be implemented. This means that it still has a purpose, but would be more of a prank/stealthy grief, if you wanted a bit of a "WTF!?" moment with a friend.

Without coke, pepsi wouldn't exist. We wouldn't even be ABLE to resort to dr. pepper, since it's freaky mutant cola.
IT WOULD JUST BE GINGER BEER

Edit: Oh he was banned. That's why he was raging.

You might want a half-step floor to prevent mobs from spawning if you want a dark and gloomy feel to a building.
