How can I get the cannon loaded?
1 of 11: By using the various instruments that are arrayed around it.
2 of 11: Start by making sure the cannon is clean.
3 of 11: Get the swab from on the wall to the right of the cannon and use it on the cannon's opening.
4 of 11: Next, you need to get the load of gunpowder in.
5 of 11: Right-click to replace the swab, then look near it for the empty gunpowder shovel.
6 of 11: Pick it up, then fill it by using it on the gunpowder barrel that's on the floor to the right of the cannon.
7 of 11: NOTE: If you haven't clicked on the gunpowder barrel's lid to remove it yet, do so before picking up the shovel.
8 of 11: After filling the shovel with gunpowder, use it on the cannon's opening to get the gunpowder put in.
9 of 11: You'll then need to tamp the gunpowder down with another tool.
10 of 11: Get the rammer from next to the swab and shovel, and use it on the cannon's opening.
11 of 11: Now you can use your cannonball on the cannon's opening to put it in and have a loaded cannon.
