Chains

G'day everyone!

Another yet tiny chains bug fix, that took way too long for us to find, and it's all about crushing wheels. There was small bug, where crushing wheels only could be crafted using spruce planks, but now it was fixed and you can use any kind to craft them!

Enjoy your Chains experience, and Have a good day y'all!

G'day everyone!

Another yet tiny Chains Update, this time it aims to fix the bug with Waterwheels and their strange rotation.

⚙️ Changelog

🔒 Bug Fixes

Fixed the bug, where stripped log in the middle of the Waterwheel didn't rotate while rotating the Waterwheel of any type except for the Spruce one with a Wrench.

G'day everyone!

Just like always, we've found a few bugs with the new 0.3 Update, so we decided to fix them quickly so that players can enjoy the new Update without any bugs.

⚙️Changelog

🔒Bug Fixes

We've fixed a bug, where Transport Funnel couldn't be placed. Now it works properly. And a bug, where players weren't able to take something from Mechanical Press, in case it didn't have a funnel. Now you can do that just by pressing [RIGHT-CLICK] with Wrench on it. Also, a bug was fixed, where Depot dropped Stone Button if it was operated by a Mechanical Press and didn't have any remainder.

💓QOL Changes

In case, Depot was operated by a Mechanical Press and didn't have any remainder, it will now be able to collect new items without needing to click on it with a wrench.

It's been a long time since the 0.2 came out. And, finally, the brand new 0.3 with completely new features is ready to release. Introducing the Chains 0.3 - Pumps and Pipes Update!

⚙️Changelog

CP => CT

Based on the feedback we received, we have changed the term and Chain Power will now be referred to as Chain Torque.

As always, we've updated the Wiki. You can find everything you need there! To make life even easier, we made a new command:

/trigger wikithis

You can now use the command to quickly search for information about the item that you are currently holding in your hand.

🔗New Machines

Steam Engine - Completely new CTS, that has 3 different tiers of progression.

Liquid Pumps and Pipes - Transport liquid with ease.

Depot - Showcase your Items or use them with different Machines.

Funnel - Output Items from different Machines.

Mechanical Press - Compress Items into their compressed variants, such as Iron Ingots into Blocks.

Filter - FIlter In- and Outputs of different Machines.

Mechanical Saw and Drill - chop Trees or break Stones. All you need is a bit of CT!

And so many bug fixes! Although it may seem, like this update is smaller than 0.2, it took us a long time to complete everything. So I hope you like it!

The 0.3 is FINALLY here! Here's the resource pack. I hope y'all like it!

This is a Resource Pack, click here to download the Data Pack.

Nothing special, just a link to the resource pack in the Featured Versions from now on. The 0.3 will be out soon!

G'day everyone,

I encountered an issue with the Waterwheel in Chains Datapack, but I managed to fix it quickly. As a result, there's now a beta version available with this enhancement.

⚙️ Changelog

🔒 Bug Fixes

We have resolved two issues related to Waterwheels. Firstly, we have fixed a bug where they were not receiving the "rotating" tag, which caused them to malfunction. Additionally, we have corrected a bug where two Waterwheel Textures were appearing instead of one when a Waterwheel was placed.

G'day everyone,

A new tiny Chains Update is now available, improving TPS and overall experience with the Chains Datapack, particularly at the start, by changing how every function behaves.

The information below may seem a little complex, but to sum it up: You can achieve higher TPS if you're not currently doing Chains.

⚙️ Changelog

There has been a modification to the "Schedules" function that triggers every function when the game begins. For Instance, the Crusher functions now only execute when the player is nearby,

If the player stays away from Chain's machines or only approaches a few, it can lead to a better TPS overall.

Yesterday's 0.2.1 update had some bugs related to the Mechanical Fan. However, a new update has been released to fix these issues.

⚙️ Changelog

🔒Bug Fixes

Resolved an issue with the mechanical fan that was causing uneven movement.

G'day everyone,

I've just found a few troubles in the Datapack, which decreased your TPS. So, here's a tiny Beta, which fixes them!

⚙️ Changelog

🔒 Bug Fixes

Changed the way the mechanical fan behaves, resulting in an increase in TPS by almost 2 times.

I'm happy to announce: Chains 0.2 - Power of Wheels! It's a huge update with significant changes, so I hope you'll like it! First things first, to make it easy to understand the data pack, we've decided to create Chains Datapack Wiki! I'm sure it helps a lot, but now, let's move on to the Changelog!

⚙️ Changelog

🔒Bug Fixes

Good news! We fixed a bug with Chains when there were many Working Waterwheels in the World and Crusher Recipes that were not working before are now fixed and working perfectly.

⚙️ Changelog:

Waterwheel:

Waterwheel is a new CP (Chain Power) Source. It produces CP if has water 2 Blocks below it. Currently works only on the x-axis.

Sawmill:

Sawmill is one of the powerable units. If powered, cuts every Log and Wood (as well as stripped ones) into 6 Planks each. Throw a log onto it to start the process.

Crusher:

Crusher is the most complicated machine of all. To power it you need to ride a horse connected on a lead to the fence above the crusher. There are very couple of recipes with Crusher. Here's a list of them:

▷ Sandstone of any type -> 2 Sand or Red Sand (depends on sandstone)

▷ Basalt/Blackstone/Cobbled Deepslate -> Cobblestone

▷ Cobblestone -> Gravel

▷ Gravel -> Sand

▷ Any prismarine Block -> 4 Prismarine Shards

▷ Any block, that has a cracked version of it -> Its cracked version
