About this Mod
Hanging On aims to make chains more useful and convenient, and allowing them to be a part of more builds!
Features:
-Climbable chains! You can now climb chains, just like you'd do with ladders and vines!
-Get them nuggets ready! Chains are now cheaper, being crafted with just 3 iron nuggets in a straight, upward line. it can be crafted anywhere in the crafting table too!
-Hang on! Sneak-Right Click Chain blocks with more chains in your hand/off-hand, and you can place more chains right below the original chain you sneak-right clicked, for up to 2 blocks down! Makes it easy to descend down into caves and big drops!
-Secret connections revealed! You can now tie leads to chains, just like you'd do with fences! A great piece of decor, methinks.
We recommend pairing the mod with the Unchained Mod for maximum peak chain action!
