I’m playing on the Bedrock Edition and I’m struggling to get a TNT minecart to explode instantly. I’ve tried using multiple minecarts, powered rails, and activator rails, yet it doesn’t detonate the way I want. Anyone know what I might be doing wrong or how to fix this? I’m really frustrated and could use some advice.

In Bedrock Edition, TNT minecarts don’t work quite the same as they do in Java Edition. They generally require some extra steps to detonate immediately. Try using multiple TNT minecarts stacked on top of each other. When one is activated, they’ll all explode instantly. Make sure your activator rails are set up to ignite them when they collide or hit a barrier.
Have you considered using redstone mechanisms to improve your setup? Sometimes adding a redstone torch or lever for precise timing can help detonate the TNT minecart as you intend. Also, check if the powered rails are correctly aligned with the activator rails.
If you’re not getting the instant explosion you want, try increasing the speed of the minecart. Use more powered rails or place them on a downhill slope to increase velocity before reaching the activator rail. Faster speeds seem to trigger the explosion better.
