    Hi Conner,

    You can use a gear relation to link the rotation of the sprockets together, but there’s no way to make the chain move - it’s a solid singular part. The chain was made this way so that it would be easy to add detail/show where the chain path would go. Having the chain in your model and linking the rotation of the sprockets together will earn you full points, so no worries!
