Description

As per our discussion in discord, armor stands in default Minecraft, when invisible, show all non-null slot items as rendering normally. In this case, would it be possible to get the slot items rendered even if the underlying armor stand is invisible?

In addition to that, let's say I have a render that has an armor stand holding a glass block- let's also say that glass block is covering a light source (like a torch), would it be possible to let that torch take the color of the glass block that is covering it up perfectly?

Thanks!

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the armor-stand rendering code and the light-transport path, then determine how invisible entities and held slot items are handled. Done means invisible armor stands render non-null slot items and a covered light source can take the covering glass block's color, with behavior verified in rendered scenes.
