FancyFlares
The "Immersive Vehicles" library is required in order to use this mod!
Immersive Vehicles is like a "Game Engine"/ API / Library.
I use its features and code to make the flare gun and its effects possible, which is why its a dependency.

Fancy Flares is a small mod that adds a flare gun and a set of cartridges to your game.
The Flare Gun:
This is the flare gun.
You load it with cartridges by pressing [LMB] (when empty) or [R],
then fire it at the sky (or any mob, noones stopping you).
You craft it with some copper, a flint&steel, sticks, a lever and some red dye!

Flare Cartridges:
Cartriges come in six different colors. The golden one is a rainbow flare!
You're allowed to use this mod in your modpacks!
You may include this mod in public or private Minecraft modpacks, provided the mod file is unmodified and downloaded from its official Modrinth or CurseForge page
This is a standalone port of the Flare Gun from the Immersive Vehicles Official Content Pack
