Here is a very cool script again by the amazing author Martin O’Hanlon, you can right click block and have it explode like TNT in Minecraft.
Here is the code:

#www.stuffaboutcode.com
#Raspberry Pi, Minecraft Bombs - Turn any block into a bomb!
#import the minecraft.py module from the minecraft directory
import minecraft.minecraft as minecraft
#import minecraft block module
import minecraft.block as block

mc.setBlock(pos.x + x, pos.y + y, pos.z + z, block.AIR)
if __name__ == "__main__":
time.sleep(5)

# - minecraft needs to be running and in a game

#Post a message to the minecraft chat window

#loop until Ctrl C

# if a block has been hit
if blockHits:
# for each block that has been hit
for blockHit in blockHits:

# pass the position of the block, fuse time in seconds and blast radius
# threads are used so multiple exploding blocks can be created

Hey back, I would like to show you guys a new script i found out there it allows you to play the classic game Snake by Martin O’Hanlon.
Here is a video i found on the page
Code:

Note! I changed the glowing obsidian aka ‘The Snakes food’ to a gold blocks because i was testing it on raspberry juice
