Description
Expected behavior
The "28w Pork Tower" should operate without triggering any thread safety errors.
All entity state updates and accesses should occur on the correct (owning) region thread, ensuring smooth operation and adherence to Folia's threading.
Observed/Actual behavior
When the "28w Pork Tower" is activated by a player, the server logs display errors such as:
Thread failed main thread check: Accessing entity state off owning region's thread...
errorlog:
log.txt

Other
When using the redstone contraption known as "28w Pork Tower" , the server logs show errors indicating that entity state is being accessed from the wrong thread. This appears to be due to the redstone machine triggering entity-related operations outside of the entity’s owning region thread in Folia’s multithreaded environment.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with the attached 28w.txt and 28wcollects.txt files, then inspect log.txt for the cross-thread entity access stack trace. Trace the reported entity-state access to its owning region thread; done means the machine no longer produces thread safety errors under the stated Folia version.
