[MC-155551] Rails, ladders and vines slightly float above/off of the blocks they're placed on

These blocks use flat models, as opposed to them being arranged in a x or # shape like many other blocks. They float above the blocks they're attached to, which is a bit weird.

This would not be fixable by moving their models down to the exact block, as this would more than likely cause unsightly Z-fighting issues. A better fix would be to introduce dedicated 3D models for these blocks. While this would result in very complex models that may be trickier for the game to render, it would eliminate this odd floating, look nicer, and allow for unneeded faces to be culled.

Redstone dust and lily pads are rendered a lot closer to the block it sits on, and the floating is unnoticable in the former case, so other blocks could be made to look like this to fix this also.

How to fix

The resource pack attached to MC-237445 fixes this issue completely, alongside fixing multiple other issues with flat plane models.

I can confirm that this affects 19w36a and 19w37a, and also that this bug is completely different from MC-56139 - I fail to see why this rather vague sounding report was swiftly declared a duplicate of this other very specific one.

Can this ticket be reopened, and can I request ownership of it?

violine1101 2019-09-12T12:16:58Z

Because apparently I can't read. Reopened.
