The mod adds 3 modern Minecraft features to Beta 1.7.3 Trapdoors.

1.The mod removes a check that makes sure that the trapdoor has a block to support it. Removing this limitation allows players to make trapdoors float in mid air as well as other neat stuff.

2.The mod allows trapdoors to be placed on top of (and to an extent bellow) blocks, if the player places a trapdoor on top of a block it will be rotated depending on the players direction.

(Note: You can't directly attach trapdoors to blocks like slabs, you can place the trapdoor on top of a block facing the slab for the same affect)

3.The mod makes the Axe a preferred tool to mine trapdoors. This means you can mine trapdoors faster with an axe.

Differences from original mod

I removed some of the other blocks from the effective/preferred blocks list for the Axe. In my opinion, these other blocks, like signs and such, were out of scope, and so those changes were removed. Axes are still effective on trapdoors though.

1.0.0 Changelog:

It lives! Version 1.0.0. Any future versions will add convenience features that weren't in the original mod, like placing on the sides of blocks.

1.0.1 Changelog:

Oops, forgot to add an icon to the mod! This is a bit more history rewriting than changing some incorrect metadata, so I'll create a new version for this one.

1.1.0 Changelog:

You can now place a trapdoor on the side of a block (both the base class edit and fabric port accidentally removed this vanilla feature), including non-solid blocks (this part is new, however). Placing trapdoors on the side of a block will ignore the player's rotation and place it facing towards that block, similar to modern Minecraft. You can still place against the floor or ceiling block, and it will be oriented based on the direction you're facing.

This should be the final version. The base edit version will also be updated with these changes. The same caveats as before still apply, the base edit adds more blocks to the axe's effective blocks list.
