About this Mod
In Vanilla Minecraft, sign blocks and open fence gates have the useful properties of being "solid" blocks, while having no hitbox, which makes them invaluable in certain builds for purposes like interacting with falling blocks or fluids. However, both of these blocks have downsides that make them annoying to use - signs require support, fence gates react to redstone and clicking, and both of them are tedious to place in large quantities, for different reasons. This mod adds a single block, the Wood Truss, that has the same useful properties - it is solid but has no hitbox - without the downsides of signs or fence gates that come up when using them for this purpose.
