Licence summary for automated readers: https://justified.gg/llms.txt ## Firework Maker Firework Maker (`/fireworkmaker`) is a production job where you run a machine that turns paper and black powder into firework packs. Simple setup, steady profit, and satisfying to watch. --- ## Getting Started ### Buy the Machine Buy the **Firework Machine** (£5,000) from the F4 menu. You can only have one. ### Fit the Parts A new machine is bare. From its menu, buy each of its four parts and bolt them in. ### Buy Ingredients You need **Paper** (£1,000) and **BlackPowder** (£1,000) to keep the machine running. ### Buy a Box Get a **Box** (£100) to collect the finished fireworks. ### Load the Machine Touch the paper and black powder to the machine to fill it. ### Start Production Press **Start** on the machine's screen. Watch it go! --- ## How It Works | Stage | What Happens | | - | - | | **Loading** | Touch ingredients to the machine to fill it | | **Production** | The machine rolls tubes, loads them, binds the pack and charges it with powder | | **Output** | Firework packs come out of the machine | | **Packing** | Put the packs into a Box, 8 to a box | | **Selling** | Take full boxes to the Broker | Box Your Packs The machine stops when 8 unboxed packs are waiting. Come back and box them to keep it running. --- ## Machine Parts The machine has four parts, and each one speeds up a different stage: | Part | Stage | | - | - | | **Tube Roller** | Rolls paper into tubes | | **Tube Loader** | Loads tubes into the pack | | **Cake Binder** | Binds the pack | | **Powder Charger** | Fills the pack with powder | Upgrade each part from the machine's menu. The menu tells you which part is slowing you down. Once a part is maxed, you can **overclock** it for more speed, but it wears out faster. ### Wear and Repair Parts wear down as they work. A well-kept part runs a little faster, a worn one runs slower, and a part at 0% jams and stops its stage. Repair a part from the machine's menu by tightening its bolts with a wrench. --- ## Firework Types Pick what the machine makes. New types unlock with your Firework Maker level: | Type | Level | | - | - | | **Firework** | 1 | | **Bangers** | 3 | | **Sparkler String** | 5 | | **Roman Candle** | 10 | | **Golden Fountain** | 18 | | **Crossette** | 26 | | **Peony Shell** | 35 | | **Willow Cake** | 45 | | **Grand Finale** | 55 | Small packs are quicker to make but fill your boxes faster. Big packs are worth more per box. --- ## Collecting & Storing Fireworks | Method | How It Works | | - | - | | **Physical Box** | Packs go into the box (holds 8). Carry the box to transport it. | | **Carried Stock** | Press E on a box to pick its packs up as carried stock. The box is used up. | Death Warning If you die, your **carried stock is lost**. Carry physical boxes if you can, or sell often. --- ## Selling Take your fireworks to **The Smelter**, the Broker that buys fireworks. Broker names change, so read the nameplate. The Fence buys anything, for less. - The Broker counts your carried stock AND boxes near you - Each Broker's rate moves over time - Every rank gets the same price --- ## Paid Ranks There are three paid versions of the job: **Pro**, **Expert** and **Veteran Firework Maker**. They give you a reserved slot and a higher salary. --- ## Tips for Success ### Upgrade the slowest part The machine is only as fast as its slowest stage. Upgrade the part the menu says is holding you back. ### Keep ingredients stocked The machine stops when it runs out. Always have paper and powder ready. ### Keep your parts in shape Repair before a part jams. A well-kept part runs faster. ### Use physical boxes Carried stock is lost when you die. Boxes stay in the world. ### Secure your base Machines and boxes can be destroyed in raids. Build in a fortified location. --- ## Common Problems ### Machine stopped producing **Cause:** Out of paper or black powder, 8 packs waiting to be boxed, or a jammed part. **Solution:** Refill, box your packs, or repair the part. ### Machine won't start **Cause:** It's still missing parts. **Solution:** Buy and fit all four parts from the machine's menu. ### Production is too slow **Cause:** Low-level or worn parts. **Solution:** Upgrade the part the menu names as the slowest, and repair worn parts. ### Lost fireworks on death **Cause:** Carried stock is lost when you die. **Solution:** Use physical boxes, or sell more often. --- ## Quick Reference - **Ingredients**: Paper + BlackPowder - **Box capacity**: 8 firework packs - **Parts**: Tube Roller, Tube Loader, Cake Binder, Powder Charger - **Upgrades**: per part, then overclock - **Repair**: tighten the bolts on worn parts - **Carried stock**: lost on death! - **Sell to**: The Smelter
