Hi,
ChainedCylinder could also print a warning, doing nothing in the simulation
but suggesting to have a look at GridNodes/Connections documentation.
Cylinders and Grid don't have exactly the same algorithms, therefore I
think it is safer to do nothing rather than letting the user think it is
working as before.
