About BetterChairs Remastered
From SpigotMCBetterChairs allows you to sit on chairs – Every block can be a chair
BetterChairs allows you and your players to sit on chairs.
Every stair, every half block or even every block can be a chair if you want it to!
It is:
- fast, as it has been written with performance in mind
- easily updated, because you get notified about new versions, and your configurations get upgraded automatically
- customizable, as it generates configuration files for you
- reliable, as it supports all Minecraft versions newer than 1.8 natively
- free and OpenSource. Request Features or add them yourself!
