Description
Atlas Alarms adds customizable flashing alarm systems
Place an Alarm block and give it a name. Place an Alarm Controller, type that same name in, and the controller takes over every alarm with that name in the current dimension. Power the controller with redstone and every linked alarm flashes and plays your chosen sound in sync.
You can also Shift + Right-Click an alarm block while holding another alarm in your main hand to open its name/config screen — the alarm keeps that configuration when you place it elsewhere.
Custom sounds
Open any Alarm Controller and hit Upload to pick an MP3 or WAV file (≤ 10 seconds). The sound uploads to the server automatically, gets shared with everyone on the world/server, and shows up in every controller's sound list.
If you want colored light

Install Colorful Lighting (Sodium Compat).
