Connectible Chains [Fabric]

Connectible Chains

Connect your fences and walls with a decorative chain!

Description

Connect your fences/walls with a decorative chain!

Use the normal vanilla chain item on fences or walls, and you can create a chain for up to 7 blocks long (Configurable to 32 with config, however I do not support this and rendering issues may occur).

These chains have collision and can be broken when attacking it with a shear.
Sneak on fences if you want to place them normally.

Version Support

I will not be supporting versions lower than 1.20.4

Compatibility with other mods

Using data/c/tags/items/chains.json we check if an item can be used to make a catenary.
The code then assumes an item and blocktexture for the knot and catenary.
This implies that you can make anything a compatible chain, as long as you have textures available. For modded players, you need to add a data pack where you add tags for the modded chain items you want added.

See the example below to add blockus:golden_chain.

{
  "replace": false,
  "values": [
    "minecraft:chain",
    "blockus:golden_chain"
  ]
}

Forge?

There is a forge port however I do not maintain it.

Known Bugs

Rendering a link that is perfectly vertical does not work.

Other information

If there are invisible collisions for some reason, hold a shear while having entity hitboxes on (F3+B) to see the collisions and then attack them to remove them.
