Gunpowder Fuses in Vanilla Minecraft!

This seems to be a popular feature request lately, so I decided to allow gunpowder to be used as fuse timers for TNT with command blocks! Let's see how it works!

Say I need to get past this huge wall because the plot of this crappy roleplay says so. I can't light the TNT by hand because I might get hurt, but I could lay a fuse of gunpowder to light.

Here we go, a trail is set. I simply threw down the pieces onto the ground with Q. Any misplaced pieces were picked back up and replaced.

Now I can safely light the fuse from this bunker and reach the other side of this wall.

Simply use flint and steel to start the chain. Each piece will burn for five seconds before being destroyed and igniting its nearby neighbors.

The flame will continue down the line until it reaches the final piece on top of the TNT.

After the final piece burns out, the TNT will detonate immediately without going through the fuse stage.

Kaboom! The gunpowder chain worked perfectly, though I did forget to actually go in the bunker I based this entire story on.

Woohoo, gold! Now for the explanation and some other things.

It's simple--armor stands (of course)! Whenever you throw one piece of gunpowder onto the ground, these guys are created and given a scoreboard value.

This lets them burn and whatnot. You can also pick up the gunpowder from them just by standing by it. Also, if the block beneath the powder is removed, it will turn back into an item drop, fall, and then turn into another one of these upon touching the new ground!

All in all, a pretty simple thing that could do a lot for adventure maps or even in a survival world. It could be tweaked a little bit, but I think it's pretty cool. Thanks for checking it out!
