<![CDATA[gunpowder barrels should not be able to light up under water]]>

**As title said, i think that the Gunpowder barrel should not be ablet to light up under water, they should not be able to touch the water at all, and if u light up it and someone throws water at you it must defuse the fuse, becouse at the moment ther is no way to prevent someone to make it explode on ur Ship, if someone jump on the boat whit that u have no choice, if u shot him it will explode, if u dont he will make it to explode, and thats a bit unfair, give the pepole a way to defend from them.
O and please ADD the FIRE. **

I do know from personal experience that fuses do Work underwater.

We would play with M-80’s and Block Busters (quarter stick of dynamite 🧨 as kids and always threw them the water and they always went boom 💥

@giangi877

For what @Glannigan has said, there was a time (before the gunpowder skeletons event) when kegs had no fuse, and could only be destroyed by damage.

For water, perhaps allowing them to be capable of floating while lit, as they can leave their fuse above the water, but a well placed bucket disarming them.

@glannigan said in gunpowder barrels should not be able to light up under water:

^^^^ This right here.

@giangi877

I like how you can use the kegs as mines.
I agree lighting should extinguish them in water though.

Perhaps keep collision detonations though?

Using water bucket to diffuse is a brilliant idea as you have a chance to disarm them....very.....very carefully.
