About TNT Minecart
The TNT Minecart is a rolling minecart packed with explosives. It does not blow up on its own. It detonates the moment it rolls over a powered activator rail, which makes it useful for remote traps, tunnel clearing, and redstone devices.
Key facts:
- Triggers instantly when it crosses an active activator rail.
- The blast is strong enough to break stone and most common building blocks.
- It does not detonate from ordinary rails or redstone wire alone.
You can push it, send it downhill, or launch it with powered rails before an activator rail sets it off.
How to get TNT Minecart
You can only get a TNT Minecart by crafting it. Combine a regular minecart with a TNT block in a crafting grid. There is no chest loot or villager trade that gives this item, so you need to make the TNT first.
