# multiplayer protocol this is a concept! it has not been implemented yet! the Furnace protocol is described here. # information all numbers are little-endian. the following fields may be found in "size": - `f` indicates a floating point number. - `STR` is a UTF-8 zero-terminated string. - `CFG` is the same as STR, but contains a config. - `???` is an array of variable size. - `S??` is an array of `STR`s. - `1??` is an array of bytes. - `2??` is an array of shorts. - `4??` is an array of ints. two player IDs are reserved: - 0: system - 1: host (console) two usernames are reserved: - SYSTEM - HOST some characters are not allowed in usernames: 0x00-0x1f, `@`, 0x7f-0x9f, 0xd800-0xdfff, 0xfeff, 0xfffe and 0xffff. # header ``` size | description -----|------------------------------------ 3 | "fur" header 1 | packet type 4 | sequence number ``` the sequence number always starts at 0. # client to server packets (init) ## 0x00: keep-alive this packet keeps a connection alive. the server shall respond with a packet of type 0x00 (keep-alive). if the client does not receive any packets during 30 seconds, it will disconnect from the server. likewise, if the server does not receive any packets during 30 seconds, it will disconnect the client. ## 0x01: start connection ``` size | description -----|------------------------------------ 1 | reason | - 0: information | - 1: join 3 | padding 4 | client version STR | host name (may be blank) ``` after sending, you will receive a packet of type 0x01 (information), 0x02 (disconnect) or 0x03 (authenticate). ## 0x02: disconnect ``` size | description -----|------------------------------------ STR | reason ``` ## 0x03: auth response ``` size | description -----|------------------------------------ 1 | type | - 0: open | - 1: password | - 2: token --- | **open response** STR | username --- | **password response** 1 | password type | - 0: plain text | - 1: SHA-512 STR | account name ??? | password --- | **token response** STR | token ``` # server to client packets (init) ## 0x00: keep-alive this packet keeps a connection alive. it is a response to a client's keep-alive packet. ## 0x01: information ``` size | description -----|------------------------------------ 4 | server version 2 | online players | - if it is 65535, this information is concealed. 2 | maximum players | - 0 means unlimited.
