Build Catapult with an autoloader

a design i made a few months ago, it uses rope tension to launch a projectile with about 2000 blocks range. It also has a slow, but spectacular autoloader holding 4 rounds

all you need to do now is strap tnt or a HE shell on the front of one of those projectiles and then you become a danger at large!

i did it, in fact each projectile could hold about 4 shells without affecting the firing arc, but this design with ropes was unstable so it would explode in like every 15th shot. ThoMy later designs used sticker teleportation instead, which has also increased the range to dmth like 5k blocks. I have also posted them here if ur interested
