We've done this ourselves only because it was easier at the beginning.
However by now (and especially with 1.20.5), Minecraft's packet decoding
has become substantially more sophisticated, to the point that it's
probably a bad idea to try to do it ourselves.
This commit gives back that responsibility to Minecraft by adding the
standard decoder (and encoder because it's required for proper
connection state management on modern versions) to our channel pipeline,
changes the full and the quick replay sender to send raw `ByteBuf`s into
the front of the channel, and moves the posititon of the full replay
sender in the channel pipeline such that it can see and modify packets
after Minecraft has decoded them.
- Upgrade Gradle to 8.7
- Increase build daemon max memory to 8GB because archloom can compile a lot
more projects at the same time.
- Disable Minecraft 1.8 (not 1.8.9) because archloom fails to set up for that
We'll use it in 1.20 mixins.
Unclear what minimal fabric-loader version it requires, so in the interest of
keeping older versions compatible with OptiFabric (old versions of which aren't
compatible with the latest fabric-loader), we'll add it to 1.16.4+ only.
Because on 1.11+ a `null` item stack is not something that should exist.
This then also allows us to compare item stacks by value rather than only by
reference, potentially saving a few redundant entity equipment update
packets (but more importantly, also allows us to store a copy instead of the
original, which will be important for the next commit).
MC uses the client-side position of an entity to determine whether it is inside
the simulation range and therefore whether it will get ticked. For some (most)
entities it interpolates the client-side position to match the server-side one
inside of the tick method... no prices for guessing where this goes wrong.
Somewhat similar to the issue we have with chunk unloads which we work around in
FullReplaySender but worse cause they'll get stuck if they ever leave the sim
range even for a single tick, rather then just when their chunk is unloaded.
That was never actually finished and we do not need to keep it around anymore.
Whether we add its successor once that is ready for production use remains to be
seen.
In particular, Iris updates its frame counter and timer in the outer method, so
if we only call the inner one, then its shadows and sky will not update
properly.
Since the render method also renders the GUI, we set the current screen to null
and cancel the HUD during rendering. MC also clears the depth before rendering
the HUD, which we don't want because it breaks the depth map export, so we
cancel that as well.
This also allows Vanilla post-processing (aka Super Secret Settings, aka Vanilla
Shaders) as well as entity outlines to function properly cause those are applied
in that method as well.
Should have done this a long time ago but better late than never.
Closes#321
