Mounts on the top or the bottom of the block space like a vanilla trapdoor, swings toward whoever opens it, and copies the frame around it — including grass.

Behaviour

  • Top or bottom mount, exactly like vanilla.
  • Swings toward the player who opens it.
  • Copies the surrounding frame, grass tint included.
