Description
Minecraft typically renders the beacon beam twice per frame. This is noticeable by comparing the opacity of the
beacon beam when the beacon is in view versus when it's out of view (fly 50 blocks above, for instance).
This fix is based off a Forge PR that was added to 1.11.x:
https://github.com/MinecraftForge/MinecraftForge/pull/3651/files

Fixes #38
How to test
Place a beacon beam, check opacity, go up and check opacity. You can look up and down to get the beacon block in and out of view to test once you are high up
