Sulfur cubes can absorb TNT

Sulfur cubes can absorb a TNT block, which will give them the physics of a wood block, and on the first impact they will not bounce, they will perform an animation similar to that of TNT for 0.3 seconds and explode with an explosion radius identical to that of TNT.

    It definitely needs some dynamic interaction with tnt

    Great idea!
    But I think immediate explosion on hit is really annoying and hard to use. Instead, I think it is a good idea to allow players to use Flint and Steel to ignite them, they would still act like a TNT but can be bounced when players hit them.

    Instead of a normal explosion, make the explosion cause the block in the explosion radius to turn into sulfur blocks.

    The TNT could go off when the sulfur slime hits a surface with enough kinetic energy. It explodes on impact and splits into two baby slimes. This will prevent the TNT from necessarily going off next to the player while allowing awesome tech and plenty of chaos too.

    I like this a lot, there are many niche blocks that could have some really fun uses.

    I think the sulfur cube should split in two after exploding

    Immediate explosion could be bad to the player though, I think manually lighting it would be good. And if it explodes it can just deduce it to it's small form instead of killing it

    I like idea of them having interaction with TNT, sulfur is used in some explosives so should have some unique interaction
    I like one idea with them exploding only after using flint and steel (or perhaps any ignition source as flaming arrow, fire charge, whole mob falling into fire), and till and after working all bouncy, however would be cool if timer could be significantly longer after ignition, or somehow modified, if it was longer, it could be used in minigames (which seems of showcase of mob as important goal for mob), if it could be shorter or same as TNT, it could still be used in minigames, as well as in both cases surely having also some practical use
    one effect that absorbed TNT could also have could be not destroying blocks around but having blast radius that would deal damage like regular TNT, which could be used for some mob grinding or traps without destroying bunch of terrain
    maybe if sulfur cube with TNT inside being struck with lightning, it could be charged even, increasing its damage and blast radius, similarly to creeper (I assume it should not drop mob heads, as that is part of reward for handling charged creepers in way to acquire those)

    It should explode the same time it takes a tnt alone to have enough time for it to bounce off which will be really fun, also, it can be used for mini-games.

    I think making it to where it will explode after taking a certain amount of damage would be better, so as to let it be able to bounce a bit before it explodes. That way, it doesn't explode immediately upon a hit, and it could be useful when combined with the Happy Ghast.

     

    Making it split upon exploding could be interesting, too. Perhaps the small cubes will "inherit" the explosive properties of the first Sulfur Cube.

    I think to make it more fun it should when it hits something hard, like TNT minecarts. For balancing I think the explosion shouldn't break blocks and the Sulfur Cube should just split into 2 instead of dying

    It will be awesome if sulfur cubes can absorb tnt if we then will be able to make it explode with things like redstone

    I think it should
    And there should be a game rule to change how long until explode

    The cube should survive when exploding in this way so that it can be used as a replacement for TNT duplication bugs which Mojang has previously stated an interest in patching should a suitable replacement be added. Either that, or the SC should be able to help create TNT renewably somehow

    I think it would be better if it goes flying like a wood block, but instead of bouncing it just explodes on impact. I see some people saying it shouldn't break blocks but it definitely SHOULD. Its not like they spawn naturally like creepers, any destruction would be caused by the player, which fits Minecrafts philosophy just fine. If a block TNT can break blocks, so should this, its no different.

    It would be a great idea if you can put TNT in the sulfur cube en when it falls from a height of 4 blocks of higher it will explode

    I have an idea for the mechanic the tnt does not go away when it explodes and it explodes when it hits a player or block

    the cube should have to fall a minimum distance before the tnt inside would explode. allowing the payload to be easily moved around, while allowing the cubes to be dropped from a happy ghast onto an unsuspecting pillager outpost

    I think it’d be cool. Players could either pre-ignite the tnt sulfur for it to explode on contact or they could launch it without being lit, causing your proposal by bouncing once to prime it and exploding the second instance of contact.

    I'm according about the title but the description you have shared is too similar to a simple tnt with a spear

    The possibility of adding more TNT in the cube to make it more powerfull
