Bug Description

Certain copycats from the "Create: Connected" or "Create: Copycats+" mods cause faces on Chipped's blocks using connected textures, in this example using a copycat slab, whether a block face is made invisible is dependent on its orientation. Specifically, when a copycat slab is placed on the south, east, or top face of the block, all adjacent Chipped connected texture blocks will have their texture removed. In all of these orientations, the copycat slab has its NBT "type" value set to "top". This can be used to x-ray for caves.

This bug still occurs if connected textures are disabled on the copycat slab, which I believe could indicate that it's being caused by Chipped.

What I believe also indicates that this is an issue on the side of Chipped (or Athena/CTM for that matter) is that this same bug does not occur with Rechiseled blocks, (which use the Fusion mod for connected textures).

Worst case scenario, this might be an issue with Athena, although that would need some further testing in order to determine.

How to Reproduce?

1. Install Create: Connected, or Create: Copycats+
2. Place down a copycat slab in the south, east, or top face, next to any connected texture block from Chipped.

Expected Behavior

Adjacent Chipped block faces are still rendered when visible.

Code of Conduct

• I have searched the issue tracker and confirmed that the issue has not been reported
• I have checked the FAQ (if one is present) and my issue is not listed
• I have verified that I am using the latest version of the mod
• I have verified that I have installed all the required dependencies for the mod
• I have verified that I do not have Optifine installed. We will close issues if we detect Optifine is in your pack. We cannot fix Optifine issues. Please do not report issues with Optifine present.

After some testing, I will conclude that this is an issue with how Athena handles connected textures.

I created a simple resource pack just replacing the Athena-formatted textures for Thick Inlayed Deepslate with Fusion-formatted textures, and the issue is no longer present.

Strangely, I also had to manually delete "chipped/blockstates/thick_inlayed_deepslate.json" in the original mod's assets because I can't get the resource pack to actually override it.

Also, since this is actually an Athena issue, I have created a report there as well.
