This mod adds in a bunch of fireworks. You can manually launch them by clicking on them, or if you are using Mesecons you can trigger them with a mesecon signal. Fireworks that are touching other fireworks will launch together when one is fired, you can add some delay with fuses if you want to spread out the fun.

00:00Welcome back to another Gluanti mod review. Today we are looking at the fireworks reimagined mod, which has fireworks. Surprise,
00:10surprise. A lot of fireworks, actually. So this is, I should have counted this before, eight, nine? Nine different styles
00:20of, like, firework explosions.
00:23So, for example, I don't even know which one this was. It looks like just a big ring, essentially. Oh
00:31yeah, red ring, wow. I'm so smart. But that comes in every single color. Every single color? You know, I
00:38don't know if every single color is actually correct. Let's just take a quick little peek, see here.
00:44One thing I do dislike is that every single inventory texture is the exact same, other than, obviously, what color
00:51they are. Which makes it kind of difficult to really see what's what.
00:56Um, but yeah, so it's available in red, and blue, and cyan, and pink, and, oh, I'm getting the same
01:04things. Greens, orange, yellow, there's white in here someplace. There we go, whites.
01:10Uh, well, actually, you know, I don't think there's, like, brown, or black, or gray. Which kind of would actually
01:18make sense. Um, I mean, if you had something blow up and it was black, how would you see it?
01:25You know, so that would be kind of silly. And gray would just be a less intense white. Which would
01:30also be kind of silly.
01:32I mean, how do you make, do they use magnesium for white? I believe they use magnesium for white. How
01:36do you make that burn with less intensity? Like, you can't.
01:40Um, not that this claims to be, like, a faithful, true-to-life representation of how fireworks operate.
01:49But, you know, it's fireworks. So, you craft them, you can right-click on them to launch them.
01:58Oh, pretty, pretty. Uh, there is no, you know, actually is there? I don't know, I never tried this.
02:04Um, let me turn. Okay, yeah, no, you don't, you don't take damage from it.
02:10Um, I was, uh, just a little curious about that. Um, because I do believe...
02:16Let's do something crazy real quick.
02:18I want to say that it has collisions.
02:22I don't know why, but I feel like when I was looking at the code...
02:27Yeah.
02:30Bro!
02:33The fireworks will collide with things.
02:35Uh, now, again, they don't...
02:37When they blow up, they don't deal damage, they don't wreck anything, and they won't hurt you.
02:41So, you know, I guess you have that going for you.
02:45Anyways, let's go back to look at the recipes.
02:47Now, there is this Firework 2025, and I don't really know what makes this any different than anything else,
02:53because I have been unable to have this do anything.
02:59Like, it'll launch.
03:01No, no worries there.
03:03It'll shoot off a Firework.
03:04Like, if I put one in the ground here, it shoots off a Firework.
03:10And, and we get that.
03:14And every time you shoot it,
03:18you, you get that.
03:19And I don't know what that is.
03:22Um,
03:25But, yeah.
03:27Oh, and you can put fuses in, but we'll talk about that later.
03:30If you punch it with nothing in your hand,
03:32it'll let you do some configuration changes on it.
03:35Uh, whereas, if you,
03:38um,
03:40punch while holding an item,
03:42you will dig it,
03:43which is helpful to know.
03:44So, anyways, we were looking at craft recipes, were we not?
03:47So, let's get back to that.
03:50Now, these, uh,
03:52these craft recipes get, uh, get interesting.
03:55And we'll, we'll get to them in a minute.
03:57So, this is going to be hard to try to explain.
04:00I probably won't do all of these.
04:01Blue Bursts,
04:02we use TNT and Blue Dye around it.
04:04So, we can assume that the Green Burst, Red Burst,
04:06any of the other colored Bursts,
04:07are going to be doing the same thing, right?
04:10And then, if we look at the Blue Chaotic,
04:13we have a couple Blue Dye,
04:15some sticks,
04:16and TNT.
04:17Blue Flame,
04:18oh, wait, now everything is sorted with the blues first.
04:23Well, good, because, uh,
04:25that makes this a lot easier.
04:27Uh, which one are we looking at here?
04:28This is the Blue Flame, right?
04:29Yeah.
04:30Blue Dye, TNT,
04:31and some sticks.
04:33Or the Hourglass.
04:36Wait a sec,
04:37how does it know what color if there's no dye in this one?
04:41It's interesting,
04:42now I gotta look at a different Hourglass.
04:45Where's the Hourglass?
04:50That's interesting.
04:52How does that even,
04:53that can't,
04:54that can't work.
04:55We're gonna have to try that one out.
04:56Um,
05:00Blue Ring.
05:02Whoops, we want the recipes.
05:05TNT and stick,
05:06but I thought it was the Blue Burst.
05:09Oh, no, that was the TNT and dye.
05:11Okay, okay.
05:13Snowflake.
05:15No dynamite required for the Snowflake.
05:19Spiral is very pretty,
05:20I do like this one.
05:22And then we have a Star.
05:25Which, again,
05:26I don't understand how that's gonna work
05:27if you don't have
05:30any dye.
05:31Let's find out real quick.
05:33Give me some TNT, please.
05:35Give me some sticks, please.
05:37You'll notice I also have Misecons here.
05:39Uh, and we will
05:41cover that a little later.
05:43Sure, just give me a bunch of Magenta.
05:45Uh, why?
05:45Uh, actually, you know what?
05:46I don't know if Magenta was in.
05:48Available options, so let's...
05:51Let's go with one that I know is.
05:53Okay, let's get this out of here.
05:55TNT.
05:57And some sticks.
06:00Okay, so it's gonna be a dark green star.
06:06But what about any other star?
06:10Interesting.
06:11So it seems like some of these
06:12may be uncraftable, actually,
06:14because they share the same recipes.
06:17Which is a bit of a problem.
06:21Um, so your mileage may vary
06:23on a few of these, I guess.
06:24But let's look at this other thing.
06:27So firstly,
06:29um, I'm gonna go ahead,
06:31let's
06:33change the time of day
06:35to, well, night,
06:37so we can see these better.
06:38And let me find the spiral.
06:40The spiral is really cool.
06:41Really dig this one.
06:45Nice big spiral effect.
06:46And we'll know that it's...
06:49It's red and white,
06:51as it shows on here.
06:52In fact, all of these have been
06:54red fireworks with white
06:56accents, I guess.
06:58But,
06:59we can change that.
07:00So we can take any firework
07:03once it's...
07:03as a node,
07:04and we can add a dye to it.
07:06Now, I don't think all dyes work.
07:08Like I said, I don't think you can do...
07:09Yep, there's no brown.
07:10Can we do the magenta?
07:12We can.
07:12I'm not going to,
07:13because I want some with a little more contrast.
07:15Let's go ahead with blue.
07:16Sure.
07:17So now we have a red and blue spiral.
07:20I haven't actually tried this before.
07:23I just discovered this
07:23while I was doing...
07:26Nice.
07:28We have the accents
07:29with the other colors now.
07:31So we can...
07:36essentially...
07:36get all kinds of things.
07:38So if we do...
07:41firework...
07:45spiral...
07:46Is it the color first?
07:48It's the color first.
07:49Okay, so let me get the blue...
07:52blue spiral.
07:53Blue spiral.
07:55Blue spiral, please.
07:56Here we go.
07:57Oh, I should have...
07:59Should have been doing it here.
08:05Just give me the blues, please.
08:07You want the blue spiral?
08:09I'm sure you can already guess
08:10what we're going to do.
08:12We're going to go ahead
08:13and take the blue spiral.
08:15And we're going to take the red dye
08:16and get the red and blue firework
08:19to go with the...
08:21Sorry, the blue and red
08:22to go with the red and blue.
08:23Oh, and it launched both.
08:24And it launched too
08:25because I clicked on both
08:27like an idiot.
08:29Alright, let's try that again.
08:31If you have multiple touching,
08:32it will launch all of them.
08:35I should have remembered that.
08:37Wow, they looked identical.
08:39Honestly, it looked like
08:40there was only one firework.
08:43Which wasn't quite
08:44what I had in mind.
08:48But yeah, fireworks.
08:50Who doesn't love a good firework?
08:53Let's talk a smidge
08:57about things.
08:58So again, if I'm not holding
08:59something in my hand
09:00and I punch it,
09:01we pull up the settings here.
09:02We can allow others to launch it.
09:04So if we're on a server,
09:07essentially clicking this option
09:08lets other players
09:09shoot them off.
09:10Otherwise, only the placer
09:11can shoot them.
09:12And we have an inventory slot here
09:13that we can put fuses in.
09:14I believe that's the only thing
09:16we can put in.
09:16I really hope that's the only thing
09:18we can put in
09:18because it would be silly
09:19if we could put something
09:20other than the fuses
09:21in the fuse slot.
09:21Yep, only fuses.
09:23Fuse, I believe,
09:24was 8 string
09:25around one piece of coal.
09:27And you can...
09:29I think put his...
09:30Oh, I maxed that at 15.
09:32And I...
09:33It felt like
09:35when I was counting it,
09:36like it's probably
09:37a half second per fuse.
09:39So if we do two fuses,
09:40that should be a second delay.
09:42So then,
09:43if we go ahead and...
09:46right click on this one...
09:49There we go.
09:50Was that a second?
09:51I don't know.
09:54Oh, that was...
09:57That was interesting.
10:01I might have to do this again.
10:04Let's go...
10:05Oops.
10:05Let's go with this one instead
10:07and put two fuses in here.
10:11So now...
10:13We want to launch
10:14the non-fused firework,
10:15which is this one.
10:16And it launches.
10:17And then a second later,
10:18they both launch.
10:20Because this one's launch
10:22is triggering that one's launch.
10:25Which is wild.
10:26Which now makes me wonder...
10:29Oopsies.
10:30Now makes me wonder
10:31if we couldn't go
10:32kind of crazy...
10:34Hear me out...
10:36And go with...
10:39How do I do this?
10:40I need to punch it
10:41with nothing in my hand.
10:42We're going to put
10:42one fuse in this one.
10:44And we're going to put
10:45two fuses in this one.
10:49Eeps.
10:51Oops.
10:54That wasn't supposed to happen.
10:55How did that...
10:58I think I just...
11:02I clicked instead of punching.
11:05Okay.
11:07This is...
11:08This is clearly
11:09the best idea ever.
11:11I think I may have missed one,
11:12but you know what?
11:13That's fine if I did.
11:13That one has six instead of five.
11:15You know what?
11:15We're just going to roll with it.
11:18And that one has eight
11:19instead of seven.
11:20Oops.
11:23Well, are they all
11:24going to shoot off now?
11:27Or...
11:29Oh.
11:30I'm a little confused.
11:32Not going to lie.
11:33I don't really know
11:34what I just did.
11:35But it is...
11:36It is doing what I
11:37wanted it to do
11:38more or less.
11:42While I...
11:43Oh, because of course
11:44I'm only seeing spirals
11:45because that's all
11:45the fireworks were.
11:47They were all spirals.
11:50Where did the rest
11:51of them go?
11:52Should have been
11:53more than that.
11:56Was that all of them?
11:58I think it was.
11:59Anyway, so you can see
12:00you could do
12:00some creative things
12:02with the fuses.
12:03Now, the fuses
12:04do get used up
12:05when they shoot off.
12:06So I would have to
12:07go through and refill
12:08all of these with fuses
12:09every single time
12:10if I wanted to
12:12do that delayed shoot.
12:14But each time one fires
12:15it does shoot
12:16any of the connected ones.
12:18So the ones
12:18with the delays
12:19when they shoot
12:19will reshoot off
12:21anything that doesn't
12:21have the delay.
12:22It doesn't reset
12:23the delays on the ones
12:24that already are delayed
12:25from the previous firings.
12:27Which is good
12:29because
12:31that would just
12:33be silly.
12:36Yeah, we can put
12:37the delay of 15.
12:39Now I think
12:42with this
12:44that should give us
12:45about a 7 second delay
12:47if I did my math right.
12:49Which just feels like
12:50a lot more than
12:517 seconds.
12:55But there they go.
12:57They all shot
12:57with the delay.
13:00Which is swell.
13:02Now, but now
13:03there is a
13:05there is a limit here.
13:07So if we just
13:08want to really go
13:11bonkers
13:12I didn't actually
13:14mean to put one there.
13:15I meant to put it here.
13:17Okay, we're going to
13:17let those all shoot off.
13:19Okay, we're going to
13:20try that.
13:21And you'll notice
13:21we only got
13:237?
13:25Was that 7?
13:26I don't know.
13:28Let's try from here.
13:30Um
13:325?
13:33I
13:34it's too fast.
13:35I can't count.
13:383, 4
13:39I think that was 7.
13:41I think it gave me
13:427 fireworks.
13:43There is a limit
13:44to keep this from
13:45killing your server.
13:48But
13:50oh wait a second.
13:52I thought there was a
13:55oh you know
13:56it's a privilege.
13:57That's what it is.
13:57Um
14:01I don't have a way
14:02to view all
14:03privileges.
14:22Okay, I just
14:23looked at the
14:24um
14:25API
14:27and I found it.
14:28So it's
14:29fireworks
14:31underscore
14:32master.
14:35Did I not do that
14:36correctly?
14:37Grant me
14:40fireworks
14:42master.
14:43There we go.
14:45So now I think
14:45I should shoot
14:46all of them?
14:48No.
14:48Okay, well
14:49then that's not
14:50bypassing the limits.
14:54well I'm
14:56I'm shook.
14:58I want to be
14:58to shoot all of
14:59the fireworks
15:00for all of the
15:01time.
15:02Um
15:03there was a
15:04slight
15:05slowdown to my
15:06frame rate there.
15:07Not too
15:07bad though.
15:09Um
15:10if you want to
15:10bypass that
15:11it's
15:11I looked at the
15:12code
15:12so full disclosure
15:14I don't
15:15need to
15:15disclose this
15:16I use this
15:16mod for
15:18well if you're
15:19watching this
15:19video when it
15:20releases
15:20I use this
15:21mod for the
15:22fireworks video
15:22that I posted
15:23on the
15:25250th
15:25the
15:25bi-semi-centennial
15:28of the United
15:28States.
15:29So that's why I'm
15:30not doing a
15:31mod review on it.
15:32Um
15:33I need me
15:34I don't know why
15:35that's not what I
15:35want.
15:35I just need some
15:36fireworks.
15:37I don't want all
15:38blue ones though.
15:39You can also use
15:40them with
15:40mesocons as I
15:41had mentioned
15:42previously.
15:42So I'm going to
15:43just get rid of
15:43all of this
15:44stuff.
15:45And we're just
15:45going to grab
15:48a handful
15:51and let's go
15:52ahead and make
15:52it daytime so
15:53we can see what's
15:54going on.
15:54Here you'll notice
15:55I have a bunch of
15:56mesocon wire laid
15:57out and a
15:57blinky plant.
15:59And there we go.
16:00I have a whole
16:00giant row of
16:01fireworks.
16:02You can always
16:03see me putting
16:04all those out.
16:04That would have
16:04been pretty boring.
16:05And we have
16:06as mentioned before
16:07the blinky plant.
16:08We will go
16:08ahead and change
16:09time of day to
16:10night.
16:11Go ahead and
16:12connect that to
16:12the blinky plant.
16:14There we go.
16:15Wow.
16:16That was pretty
16:17wild.
16:18Here we go
16:19again.
16:21I can't tell
16:22what's happening
16:23because there's
16:24just so many
16:25of them.
16:27We've got a
16:27couple spirals
16:28in there.
16:30Yeah.
16:31Now you will
16:32notice one thing.
16:33They all shoot
16:34to the exact
16:37same height.
16:39And I do
16:39mean exact.
16:42Like, it's
16:43the exact same
16:44range.
16:45I feel like
16:46personally, it
16:48would be better
16:48with a little
16:49variation in the
16:52heights for how
16:52high they're
16:53shooting.
16:55And maybe just
16:56some offset to
16:57the sides too
16:58so that you
16:58could shoot a
16:59whole bunch and
17:00not end up with
17:00everything just
17:01inside of each
17:02other.
17:02like, you
17:03try to do a
17:03grand finale
17:05at a fireworks
17:06display, you
17:07need them to be
17:08different heights.
17:08If they're all
17:09the same height,
17:10you just get
17:10that, which, I
17:12mean, let's be
17:13real, that looks
17:13terrible.
17:15And it, of
17:16course, would be
17:16better if we had
17:17some other colors
17:18mixed in there
17:19too so they
17:20weren't all with
17:21white accents,
17:22but I didn't feel
17:23like spending all
17:24of the time to
17:24do that.
17:25Why didn't my
17:26blinky plant die?
17:27Oh, wait, no,
17:27the blinky plant's
17:28not dead.
17:29The fireworks have
17:30died.
17:30Ah, fireworks have
17:31died, yes.
17:32So, when you
17:35are shooting the
17:36fireworks with
17:36misocons, they
17:37will, um, I
17:40don't want to
17:41say break, but
17:42they will stop.
17:44I want to say
17:45it's after eight
17:46shots.
17:48So I guess we
17:48could count how
17:49many shots we
17:50had and we
17:51would find out.
17:53And now here
17:55they go again.
17:56And they will
17:57show after a
18:00handful of times
18:01that they have
18:02to be right
18:02clicked to
18:03re-enable
18:04launching.
18:05And again,
18:06this is, so
18:07if it's on a
18:08server, somebody
18:09doesn't set up
18:09what I did
18:10here and
18:12just shoot off
18:13a bajillion
18:14fireworks constantly
18:15over and over
18:17and pretty much
18:18just lag people
18:19out.
18:20I mean, right
18:21now, if I look
18:22at all this,
18:22we're going down
18:23to about 30
18:23frames a second.
18:24I mean, I
18:25have it set to
18:27cap at 60.
18:28And we're at
18:2936 when all
18:30that's blowing
18:30up.
18:31So there's a
18:34good reason for
18:34it.
18:36However, if you're
18:37using it in
18:37single player, it's
18:38pretty easy to go
18:39in and change the
18:40settings and just
18:42change that to an
18:43incredibly high
18:43number.
18:43That's what I did.
18:45I changed it up to
18:46like 200 because I
18:47didn't want to ever
18:48stop and I needed
18:49to make a video.
18:51So anyways,
18:53that's fireworks
18:54reimagined.
18:54Oh, hey, the one's
18:56in the middle
18:56now.
18:56It's on the
18:57content database.
