Ship (Ghost) Block Remover

Description
AS USUAL, WITH THESE MODS YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL AND ALWAYS BACK UP YOUR SAVES FIRST IN CASE YOU MESS UP. WHATEVER YOU DO WITH THIS IS IRREVERSIBLE UNLESS YOU RELOAD YOUR SAVE.

Short description
- Solution to the "ghost door/hatch" glitch
- Could be a problem solver in some tight spaces
- Slightly better ship customization

Longer description
Allows for removal of ghost ship blocks that normally block you from building and/or glitched blocks in your ship in general. My goal was to make a tool that could help people who for example want to use big shipping containers in just-big-enough spaces along with let's say storage bridges (Frackin' Universe), which need more space and frankly they work the best near the bottom-left corner of the container. In the shipping container that's the only way to do so, unless you have space under it. Check the last image in the preview

You could say it's an alternate version of Weaver's Ghost Hatch/Door Remover
I got inspired by it and thought I'd gladly take it another step for when you need the slightly extended use this mod can deliver.

Should be compatible with every other mod.

Guide:
- You need admin mode for this. /admin
- To get it you need to either do /spawnitem blockrem_[left, down, up, right] or just craft it through the "hands" crafting menu.
- If you need to, enable debug mode with boxes using /debug, then /boxes
- Place it facing the block you want cleared/removed. It's indicated with an arrow and a red outline around the to-be-removed block.
- It should automatically get rid of the block and you can safely break the remover and trash it or reuse it again.

Note: If you remove blocks on the ship that are supposed to be a part of it and then upgrade, in my case it just put the blocks back over my placed objects. They might break and be lost forever, so make sure you break anything that's not supposed to be there, upgrade your ship and redo the block removing afterwards.

near perfect but you cant put a background block where was the one removed, only foreground ones, any idea how to solve it?

Still works perfectly as of early-mid 2023!

This was a godsend at removing some invisible blocks left behind by a glitched crafting station.

At least that's as long as the map/ship doesn't get regenerated, or updated in any way

a ghoast glitch how to activate ghost world (interacte with nothing):
the moment you use the blinkdash-tech TP up, then nothing can interract with you.
fix: restart world or /serverreload
