The rope was created for all those times you wanted to rappel down a large cliff or cave. The rope must be attached to a solid block above where you place it.
Any rope blocks placed directly next to other rope blocks will be added to the bottom of the rope. Destroying a rope piece will decrease one from its length. Destroying the block the rope is anchored to makes the entire rope break.
The recipe is shown in the video.
Installation:
Singleplayer Instructions
Multiplayer Instructions
If you’re having problems please reinstall ModLoader. Then make sure you deleted META-INF from minecraft.jar. If that doesn’t work, and you’re sure you reinstalled modloader just now, it could be a blockID or itemID conflict. These mods will automatically create a file in (minecraft folder)/mods/DJoslin/, open that file and change the ID to an unused one.
