Description
Welcome to Nostalgic Placement!
This mod will change the placement rules of certain blocks to match that of version Beta 1.7.3
Features:
Chests- You can't place chests next to a double chests.
Logs- Logs can't be placed horizontally anymore.
Stairs- No more upside down stairs, all stairs will be converted to normal. No corner stairs.
Slabs- Slabs can only be placed on the bottom half of blocks. No combining them into full blocks.
Trapdoors- Trapdoors can only be placed on walls. If the surface it was placed on is broken, then the trapdoor breaks too. This means trapdoors don't float aswell.
Beds- Beds can only be placed if there is a block under each half of the placed bed.
Signs- You cannot right click signs to edit them.
Levers- Levers can only be placed on the sides of blocks.
Torches- Torches cannot be placed on glass of any kind.
Fences/Walls: They need to have a block underneath them in order to be placed. They also have different collision.
All features can be disabled independently, for allowing full customisation.
Please check the changelog of every update, this will help you determine whether or not it is safe to update.
