I'd prefer a craftable catapult to protect devils castle.

As long as u have the option to load it with rotten fruit and live cows:)

Personally I think a potato gun would be incredibly difficult to craft, since proper valves, air pressure tank and tubes are necessary. I think it's just to much precision necessary which can not be brought up in an apocalyptic scenario. Only if you can find it as a total gun, and then maybe with an attatched gas container.

 

I'd rather go with a catapult (or sligshot), but I don't see any need for a catapult. Maybe destroying bases, but then it's probably easier to just walk to the base and destroy it, instead of making a catapult.

What kind of crazy potato guns are you making?  All you need is a pipe big enough for a potato to snugly fit in with one end blocked and a hole in the side of the combustion chamber for filling/igniting the fuel.

PVC pipe + gas+ fire and potato on one end and someone crazy enough to operate it is all you need. I grew up poor and rural, we made our own fun and tater guns were cheap and easy to make. Oh I forgot duct tape, no invention is complete without it. Inaccurate but man it will launch a spud a good ways

Will it fire poop? How far? What types of poop will it launch?

More like fruits, stones, flares and grenades.

Get on a tall house in Electro, launch Beans in the surrounding area.
