About this Mod

If a disc is inserted while a player does not have the chunks loaded or is out of range the disc will not play upon entering the range. This also occurs when the chunks of a playing jukebox are unloaded.
This is a simple mod that checks if a jukebox should be playing upon the chunks being loaded and resumes the track.

This fixes the following bug which is marked as "won't fix"

The mod is client side only and requires fabric API

Nerd Info

Jukebox Fix reads ticks_since_song_started from the jukebox's NBT (written by vanilla) and your disc's duration. Care was taken to make it as compatible as possible with custom discs. Playback should behave normally with custom discs but of course there are no guarantees.
