I thouched an oldtimer again, and well, it turned out to be a more intricate topic agian to make these part fit and update them to their real geometry and assembly.
The input comes from BL, RB and my own parts, it is noteworthy to say that there are cannons existing, that are not listed as RB or BL.
CANNONs:
1st Gen: 32074c01, round front cover, long trigger
2nd Gen: 57796, round front cover with flat bottom, long trigger
3rd Gen: 57796, round front cover with flat bottom, smaller trigger
-> RB and BL do not diffferentiate between 2nd and 3rd Gen although RB useds pictures of both, listing them as one.
-> the 2nd Gen trigger axle does not fit into the technic grid vertically
-> an arrow in a 2nd and 3rd Gen cannon does not fit the technic grid vertically.
AMMO:
- 32133a (BL) / 76110 (LDraw) Arrow with Round rubber tip and Liftarm shaft
- 32133bc01 (BL) / n.a. (LDraw) Arrow with Round rubber tip and solid shaft
- 32133bc02 (BL) / n.a. (LDraw) Arrow with Galidor Shield tip and solid shaft
- 57028 Open Rubber End and Liftarm Shaft
To dos will follow:
- Update details of the arrows
- common subfile for 57028 and 76110
- Change the cutout at the this common subfile (this affects geometry of official files)
- Add a grove to 57029
- move the axle in the trigger to fit into the grid
- Fix the cover and clips for the 1st Gen cannon

Hello,
I have uploaded some official parts to the Parts Tracker. I had added references and set numbers to these parts. Some more will follow.
However, errors were discovered in some parts during the release. Or for other parts I changed BFC from CW to CCW and additionally these parts are certified to CC 2.0.
The point now is that I want to revise these parts so that they can leave the Parts Tracker again and I am at the beginning of this process.
It will be a long way for me, but probably also a long thread, as I have many questions and many more will come.
If one or the other question seems too trivial or is clear to you, then I ask for your understanding. Sometimes it can also be a comprehension problem on my part, as English is not my native language.
Now to the first point. If a part is also licensed under CC 2.0, then this part must be rewritten from scratch. I will call this part description code. Willy wrote me that no line of code may be taken over.
This is very difficult or even impossible. If, for example, primitives were used or subfiles were used, then it is necessary to use them again.
Can a statement be made here about how big the difference must be, or how much code may be the same, preferably as a percentage, so that the new part counts as a new part with a new author?
The primitives and subfiles could be dispensed with by writing them as individual lines of code and then releasing the part. This makes it a new part with a new author, after which the primitives and subfiles are reinserted and released again. Would such a way be conceivable?
At the pattern, the values for the triangles and squares may vary slightly in the decimal places.
Further questions will follow.
Thank you.
Greetings
Manfred

Hello
I wanted to add the references and the set numbers to the minifigure head 3626bp7b. Uploading to the Parts Tracker was not possible because BFC CERTIFY is CW.
Changing it to BFC CERTIFY CCW should not be a problem.
However, I noticed that the license CC by 2.0 is still specified. Are the above changes (BFC CERTIFY) sufficient to publish this part under my name and reference to the original author only under the CC by 4.0 license?
I would also keep the old HISTORY lines.
Greetings
Manfred
