Yes another question while fixing ValkrienSkies conpat (as my sanity dwindles yet more)

Presumably because this didn't exist back when it was originally implemented (at least not in the way it was needed). A PR to switch to the built-in logic while preserving current behavior is welcome!

huh i have a mixin just for this (i converted your raycast to a mixin for VS2 so that Infared Packets could work on ships)

all i had to do was create a custom ClipContext and overrde getBlockShape
what i ended up doing was getting a Boolean AND of the block collision + Visual shape
