BFB 100 - A Space Ballista

Behold, the BFB 100
Because everyone could use a Big F*cking Ballista from time to time

To use, enter the cockpit located at the top of the rear section of the ballista.
Once youre in the cockpit, press 3 to disengage safety and once the barrel have closed and locked (green on merge block) you are good to fire away.
After firing, the BFB will reload itself and firing time block is OFF during this time to prevent misfire. However, there is about one second near the end where the barrel is not fully closed but the block is ON again, the dart will destroy the barrel if you fire the dart during this time.

The ballista could launch a dart at 110 m/s from its barrel. Doesn't really work in high gravity environment due to the dart still being pretty slow but it works ok in a low gravity environment.

!!WARNING!!
Just like the BFG in DOOM, this weapon uses "demonic energy" to power itself and could fail at any point in time. If it fails (blew up) when launching dart, it means Lord Clang has visited you to claim his energy back

possible FAQs:

>Survival?
Sorry but no. Why would you want a Clang summoning machine in your survival world.

>The pistons failed to catch the "cable", what to do?
Just press fire again after its finished the loading process, it will fix itself.

>The dart didn't fly away from the barrel?
Just another work of Clang, you'll have to fire again

>The "cable" snapped, what to do?
You will have to spawn in a new BFB 100, its nearly impossible to repair that.

>Dart is too weak, I want stronger darts
You can replace the dart with your own design. The current dart is a central rod with half block "fins" on all four sides (using whole block have a chance for it to be stopped from the merge blocks near the exit). The length of the new design must not be longer than the one that comes with the BFB in order for it to be printable.
