Placing Standard Vanilla Chains Without Connecting Posts
Overriding the Connection Mechanic
Because the mod automatically initiates a stretched link whenever you right-click a fence, wall, or iron bar with a chain, placing a regular vanilla chain block directly on or against these surfaces requires bypassing the linking behavior.
Using Sneak Placement
1. Hold a standard vanilla chain item in your main hand.
2. Walk up to the fence, wall, or iron bar where you wish to build.
3. Press and hold your Sneak key.
4. While continuing to hold Sneak, right-click the surface of the fence or wall.
Sneaking tells the game to skip the mod's linking function and place the chain as a normal, standalone block. This allows you to construct vertical hanging chains for lanterns or set up standard chain layouts directly attached to posts without accidentally tethering two distant blocks together.
