chaintogether

Players bind one another with ropes, and the binding forms a visual chain between the two bound players. The connection is bidirectional, so each player in a pair sees the same link. A player holds a binding with only one other player at a time, which keeps the binding relationship from growing into redundant association logic.

The chain is meant to add an interactive element to multiplayer minigames and cooperative play. Bound players also share spawn point settings, so a pair keeps the same respawn arrangement when a team plays through survival together. Status changes for the pair are synchronized between the two players, and a status management function and an operation workflow handle the binding steps.

The mod runs on a Forge loader for game versions 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, with files for 1.20.1, 1.20.2, 1.20.3, 1.20.4, 1.20.5 and 1.20.6. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.
