Cannon

The is an ability block which can destroy obstacles.
== Obtaining ==
s are usually found in Rare (16.7% for 1), Epic (14.3% for 2), and Legendary Chests (12.5% for 4). It can also be purchased in the Shop at a rate of 250 Gold for 1.
The Dragon quest rewards 25 s after first completion.
== Functionality ==
The emits flame particles from its wick, indicating when it is ready to fire. Click or activate (with an input block like the Button) the , then click on the desired spot to fire. Entering this aiming mode changes the pointer to a crosshair.
The is ineffective at destroying Large Rocks, as they only make them one stud smaller on impact (equal to a single block impact). The shield emitted from the Shield Generator may also block the cannonball. s can splash to hit multiple rocks like the tiny rocks in the former Lava Stage.
After firing, the has a reload time of ten seconds, remaining in the direction in which it was last fired. Using the Property Tool's "Aim" property, players can toggle whether or not the fires toward the player's cursor or its barrel's current direction. Although the 's barrel appears to angle up when placed, firing from its default position with the aim property disabled will still fire straight, unlike Harpoons.
=== Player-versus-player ===
While PVP Mode is enabled, the cannon deals 6 damage to any block, enough to instantly break Marble, but not Titanium, Obsidian, or Gold.
== Uses ==
Other than its use against obstacles, s can push players and knock over taller crafts due to the explosion.
In PVP Mode, s are effective at destroying opponents' boats and fighting against other players as ranged combat.
s are almost mandatory to beat the Dragon quest, obtain Worthy's Plushie, obtain two specific Secret Treasures, and beat certain event quests like the Skeleton Boss Quest.
==Bugs==
*Shooting the cannon in first person mode will sometimes cause the cannon to fire at the player's head instead of where they are aiming.
*The projectile may freeze and fail to disappear after the gets deleted.
*When many s are inside of each other and a Button/Lever is pressed, all of those s acts like a machine gun.
**Placing 70 or more s inside each other then pressing Clear All can freeze the whole server for 2-8 seconds.
***Going near stacked Cannons can cause FPS lag, especially on lower-end devices, presumably because of the layered textures.
*Sometimes, a single Cannon shot will fling a player. It is hypothesized to depend on the player's rig.
* projectiles ignore Isolation Mode, meaning if the player has PVP enabled, others can shoot into their plot and destroy their boat.
