Keep Music Playing While Paused

Continuous Music During Pause

Unlike vanilla Minecraft, this mod allows background music to continue playing even when you open the pause menu.

How It Works

1. While playing, press Esc to open the pause menu as normal

2. Notice that the background music does not stop — it keeps playing in the background

3. The Now Playing widget continues to update, showing you what's currently playing

4. Close the pause menu by pressing Esc again or clicking "Back to Game"

Why This Matters

This feature is useful when you want to:

• Take a break without losing immersion in the soundtrack
• Check your inventory or settings while enjoying the music
• Pause gameplay but keep the ambient experience intact
• Transition smoothly between game modes without music interruption

The music will also continue across mode switches (like moving from Survival to Creative), maintaining a seamless listening experience throughout your session.
