Awesome! You beat me to the punch. I was about to start work on a firework and flare mod. It would be awesome if you could dye your fireworks and make them work with redstone; that way people can setup firework displays!
Dude. Give it an 'x'% chance to fail to launch. You know, to mirror accident rates with fireworks.
*sets off firework, firework sits there burning* "OH SH-"
Also, I agree with the idea above, coloring fireworks with dye. If possible, use damage and block data values to stack the different colors onto one block id.
I tested this out, but it was a bit annoying, because the fuse time is to low for escaping from the explosion. I always died, when the launch failed.
Thank you all for the nice comments.
I will look, if i can include some of your ideas to the mod.
And I had the idea for the mod, while i was playing arround with the TNT java files, then i had a block that didn't fly up, but it was like a cannon, because i had changed the motionX. Then i had a big epic cave after punching it ;D
Cool mod btw =) U should maybe work on making a new EntityExplosion (sorry if i'm wrong but i'm pretty sure that thats what makes explosions) that makes cool coloured firework =) I got no idea how to though
I also don't know how it works with the Particle Effects, but I will try to change it;D
Developement closed until I know how to code the things i want (like custom particles)
I present you my first Mod named Firework Mod.
What is it?
Do I really have to explain what firework is?
What's it's use?
Fun (maybe some people will use it to make caves)
How to install:
1. Download Risugami's Modloader V4(it looks like that it also works with V5, but I haven't tested it) and install it http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?t=80246
2. Download Firework Mod [link below]
3. Add all ".class" files + the "mods" folder to your minecraft.jar
4. Delete META-INF folder
5. Have Fun
Use it with caution!(I destroyed my whole world with it!)
Note: You CAN use Redstone to activate it!
For the next Version:
-I might will change the Block ID to 235 (I tried for V1.1, but i failed and got more than 500 Errors) *cancelled for now*
-I will try to make an own particle for the Firework, to look more like a Firework
-COLORS!
Progress: I managed to change the color of the particles, but i had to edit the "particles.png",and because there is only 1 of it, i only can set 1 color at the moment. I think I will need some time to figure out, how to make several colors, because i don't want to have too many files in the end.
A little Test
Changelog:
V1.1
-Changed the Recipe--Instead of Gunpowder, you have to use TNT
-Decreased motionY of the first Entity from 1.6D to 1.45D, so you can see the Particles better.
