As of Minecraft 1.21.4, the Compass and Clock items are driven by the resource pack.
Outside of the vanilla overworld, compasses/clocks spin franticly.
This becomes an issue when using custom dimensions.
Bukkit based servers allow you to set the compass target of a player, which doesn't work in MC 1.21.4+.
This pack fixes this issue with 2 small changes:
- Compasses now only spin franticly in the vanilla nether and end dimensions.
- Clocks now only spin franticly in the vanilla nether and end dimensions.
Compasses and clocks can now work as intended in custom dimensions.
