Prototype cPropellant Cannon

Description
A mechanical semi-auto/bolt action cannon.
Requires: SProps + CPropellant

Made using props, a slider, a few ropes and luck (so it wouldn't just break the physics lol)
Everything is welded to the world to behave better and not break physics. I recommend applying persist to everything but the bolt so you don't grab anything by accident.
Capacity for 5+1 1Mn propellant cases. (5 in mag, 1 in chamber)
The bolt was made with a slider so it can slide better inside the weapon, 4 ropes keeping it from reaching the back plate and 4 ropes keeping it from advancing too much, and a elastic to make it push forward.

Instructions:
MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS FROZEN! Leave bolt unfrozen for semi-auto, freeze it for bolt-action.

1 - Insert 5 1Mn propellant in the top magazine
2 - Pull back the bolt
3 - Release the bolt to chamber a round
4 - Fire by pressing ALT+E on the propellant inside the chamber
5* - Failure to feed is pretty common, specially if there are more than 3 rounds in the mag, pull back the bolt and let it chamber again to clear the jam, or force it forward (might break the slider that way tho, be careful!)
# - If the bolt is frozen it won't cycle, so you must pull back the bolt again to chamber another round.

Its just a prototype I made in a few minutes. Edit as you wish or use the system in a more elaborate prop/bomb cannon. Credit me if possible, thanks! :D
(Yes, the images are made in paint and look terrible, I know)

Have fun!

works pretty much the same, just put 10nm propellant in it

Physical Properties tool set to super ice I think. Been a while, can't remember exactly.
