[edit] Uses

Gunpowder can be crafted into TNT and Fire Charges, and it can be brewed with any potion to make a Splash Potion.

[edit] History

In Indev, mob drops were randomized, so when a Pig was killed it could drop gunpowder instead of Pork (seen here).

In Beta 1.0, Gunpowder was renamed Sulphur, but reverted to its original term in Beta 1.3.

In Beta 1.9 pre-release 4, gunpowder was made usable in brewing to create Splash Potions.
