🔗 Chained Together Datapack

Chained Together is a coordination-based challenge for Minecraft Java Edition, directly inspired by the popular cooperative game of the same name. This project physically links 2–4 players together, requiring absolute synchronization to survive and navigate the world.

📊 Technical Information

Version: 0.1.0-beta
Minecraft Compatibility: Java Edition 26.1 – 26.1.2
Pack Format: 71

✨ Key Features

Real-time Physics: Tension is calculated every tick using distance mechanics to simulate a physical bond.
Movement Constraints: Experience gradual speed resistance and elastic pulls when the chain reaches its limit.
Survival Challenges: High tension leads to hunger and direct damage at critical distances.
Advanced Synchronization: Features automatic cluster teleportation for respawns and dimension traversal.
Visual HUD: A live Tension HUD (Actionbar) provides color-coded warnings.
