How to Place Horizontal Flags and Hanging Banners

Ent’s Flags Mod adds two distinct ways to display banners in your world: horizontal flags that wave in the wind and hanging banners that use vanilla hanging sign placement rules.

Placing Horizontal Flags

Horizontal flags are designed to extend sideways and feature a gentle waving animation. Once you craft a horizontal flag at a crafting table, you can place it in three ways:

1. On a pole: Right-click the side of a vertical post or pole to mount the flag sideways so it flies out from the support.

2. On a wall: Right-click directly against any solid wall block to mount the flag sideways against the building facade.

3. Standing or held: You can place standing horizontal flags or hold a flag in your hand to carry a waving banner while walking.

Placing Hanging Banners

Hanging banners follow the exact same attachment mechanics as vanilla hanging signs, changing their top support depending on the block you target:

1. Under solid blocks: Right-click the underside of a ceiling or solid block to hang the banner from two parallel chains.

2. Under fences or chains: Right-click the bottom of a fence post, horizontal bar, or hanging chain to suspend the banner directly below it.

3. On wall sides: Right-click the side of a solid block to extend a horizontal wooden bar outward with the banner hanging underneath, ideal for decorating the outside of town shops.
