Diagonal Fences v1.0.5

The Diagonal Fences mod mostly works with the Framed Fences, but it will not visually connect. Is compat for this possible?

Compat for DiagonalFences is theoretically possible though in practice it's most likely going to be pretty ugly because I would need to access code in DiagonalFences that is not exposed via an API and can therefore not be considered as stable over long term.

I will look into the feasibility of this and get back to you. Should this not be doable in a maintainable way, then I will add the Framed Fences to the exclusion Tag from DiagonalFences in order to avoid any confusion in the future.

Pinging @Fuzss in case you have any input on this.

Ah, thanks for looking into it!

Hi there, I've just pushed an update for Diagonal Fences which includes fences from Framed Blocks in the exclusion tag for now.
If you want to work on compat I'm happy to make whatever changes you need on my end.

Thanks for the heads up.
At a first glance, the only thing I need is to have the BlockState properties declared as API. Then I can generate the quads without having to worry about accessing internals.

EDIT: just checked and saw that you did exactly that a few hours ago, that should be enough to make this work 👍

This was far easier than I assumed in the beginning.

Wow, nicely done!

About the tag, I just did a quick test and it's working fine...
But it only prevents newly placed fences from connecting diagonally, maybe you still had some old ones?

I opened an issue about it on you repo ;)
