Unable to place blocks on fences from off-hand
The bug
Blocks cannot be placed on fences with the off-hand.
How to reproduce
- Hold torch in offhand
- Right click on top of a fence
- You can't place it
Code analysis
The method net.minecraft.block.BlockFence.onBlockActivated(World worldIn, BlockPos pos, IBlockState state, EntityPlayer playerIn, EnumHand hand, EnumFacing facing, float hitX, float hitY, float hitZ) returns true if your mainhand is empty or holding a lead. This is also the reason for MC-21433. Since the method returns true when there's nothing in your mainhand, the offhand is ignored.
