➡️ Directional Attached Block

Directional Attached Block attaches to a side face of another block, like a wall torch or a lever. It breaks automatically if the supporting face is removed.

On placement it scans nearby block faces in the player's looking direction and picks the first valid one. If no face can support it, placement is cancelled.

The block-face-to-attach behavior is determined by the blacklist mode and the block / tag lists:

• Blacklist mode (blacklist: true, default): can attach to any sturdy face except those listed.
• Whitelist mode (blacklist: false): can only attach to faces listed.

If you specify no lists at all in blacklist mode, the block can attach to any sturdy face.
