Available since LÖVE 0.8.0
This function is not supported in earlier versions.

Creates a new ChainShape.

O.png Due to a limitation of the current collision algorithm, collision with chain shapes can react in a odd manner. see [here]  


O.png Making changes to a World is not allowed inside of the beginContact, endContact, preSolve, and postSolve callback functions, as BOX2D locks the world during these callbacks.
