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 STRs.
  • 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.

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.

after sending, you will receive a packet of type 0x01 (information), 0x02 (disconnect) or 0x03 (authenticate).

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

 STR | server version (string)

 STR | project name

the client may send a 0x00 (keep-alive) packet after receiving this one within 5 seconds. connection is then closed.

0x02: disconnect

 STR | reason

after being sent, the connection is closed.
