Game Mechanics

Fireworks are a group of items used in SWG as special effect demonstrations. Fireworks come in 8 types, each with a different display effect produced when they explode:

• Type 1 Firework (Starburst - Light)
• Type 2 Firework (Concussion Rings)
• Type 3 Firework (Chandelier)
• Type 4 Firework (Spiral Tears)
• Type 5 Firework (Starburst - Heavy)
• Type 10 Firework (Type 10 Effect)
• Type 11 Firework (Type 11 Effect)
• Type 18 Firework (Type 18 Effect)

Fireworks are used individually but can automatically be managed through item called a Firework Show Package. A firework show package is used to setup event displays through controlling the launch frequency and type of firework that will be shot in sequence.

Usage Restrictions on Fireworks and Show Packages:

• Fireworks and Show Packages can only be used outdoors

• Firework and Show package can be used from primary inventory (but not from inside another pouch or other container)

• Fireworks and Show package can be used from the toolbar

Using a Firework

• Fireworks can be used through the Launch radial option.
• Fireworks can be used through the Tool Bar.

Once used, a firework will spawn on the ground, begin a set animation sequence timer, and then flies into the air and explodes.

Using a Fireworks Show Package

Fireworks show packages act as a container for Firework charges. One of each type of firework may be loaded into the firework show package

Loading Fireworks

• Have the Show Package and the individual fireworks in your inventory (uncrated).

• Right click on the Show Package and from the radial menu, select Show Data.

• Next, select Add Event to add your individual fireworks to the show package. • After that, you will get a popup window.

• In the pop-up window, you may add fireworks from your inventory to add to the show.

This will add one charge of the firework to your show. You may also Remove Events from the show through the radial menu.

Everyone also has even more options under Show Data to arrange and re-arrange the order of the fireworks ( Modify Events ) in their Show Package.

Be sure to play around with the different delays and effects to really make an impressive display.

The maximum delay is 100 seconds the minimum is 0 (.10 seconds).
