Just in time for the new update, a way to display your precious plushies (and other items) ~~without the fear of them despawning or getting garbage collected!~~

This mod adds 2 types of display cases which will display their current inventory item. You can rotate the displayed items using pitch/yaw/roll controls in terminal or via toolbar actions. The block also contains a configurable light source which you can modify to ensure maximum viewing pleasure. PB interface should follow as well (because why not?).

Only one item (type) will be allowed (as only one gets displayed) at a time, stacks are allowed. The smaller version has a capacity of 100L and the bigger one 500L (the volume of an item shows in the tooltip that shows when you hover over the item in an inventory), to avoid items clipping the glass. Ores don't render properly so they are not allowed, ingots should work though! The block must be powered for the item to be displayed. Grinding or otherwise destroying the block should spawn the item(s), right-click deleting the block in creative will destroy the block as well as the item.

It has been tested on dedicated servers and found to work properly.

Thanks to Valikai for the awesome model for Case 1 that inspired the script and for collaborating on making this thing work! Please be gentle (and send tips) about Case 2, it's my first time in blender xD (massive thanks to enenra for SEUT though!)

Thanks also to the awesome folks in the keen discord and especially Digi (who's always helpful and who I stole a sh*ton of code from)
