Adds ability to control who receives it and who is the source/sender (vanish API)
the standard API is to send the packet to everyone in the world, which is ineffecient.
This adds a new Builder API which is much friendlier to use.
Players are able to use alt accounts and enderpearls to travel
long distances utilizing the pearls in unloaded chunks and loading
the chunk later when convenient.
This disables that by not saving the thrower when the chunk is unloaded.
This is mainly useful for survival servers that do not allow freeform teleporting.
Fires an event anytime an enderman intends to teleport away from the player
You may cancel this, enabling ranged attacks to damage the enderman for example.
Resolves#1101
reporter of this issue was incorrect and did not verify vanilla logic
vanilla logic only skips ticks if the flag is set
spigots change causes bugs as it now skips ticking and processing
chunk teleportation, which was a bug I fixed many many years ago...
Prior to this change the server would crash when attempting to load a
chunk from a region with bad data.
After this change the server will defer back to vanilla behavior. At
this time, that means attempting to generate a chunk in its place
(and occasionally just not generating anything and leaving small
holes in the world).
Should Mojang choose to alter this behavior in the future, this change
will simply defer to whatever that new behavior is.
It is often difficult to diagnose new issues server admins get when
upgrading to a new server version because the only information they are
able to tell us regarding the server version they are running is
"latest". This commit attempts to mitigate this by keeping track of the
previous version of Paper they were running, which is then reported by
the `/version` or `/paper version` command. This gives us a better idea
of the commits included in the upgrade, which may help diagnose new
issues easier.
It was using a redirect, but apparently a small portion of systems,
networks, some mess, are having problems with that redirect.
Just use the direct link and skip the hassle.
This change by spigot ensures that many interactins with chunks,
e.g. getting a list of TEs will cause the chunk to be marked for not
unloading and will block their unload. This is especially true for
servers using Timings (it needs to access the TE list of chunks), or
any plugins which need to access entity/TE lists periodically.
At the time this was re-added, there was concern around how the JIT
would handle the system property that enabled it.
This shouldn't be a problem, and as such we no longer need to block
access to it.
The Vanilla Method Profiler will not provide much to most users however
there is no harm in providing it as an option. For most users, the
recommended and supported method for determining performance issues with
Paper will continue to be Timings.
In some enviroments, the channel limit set by spigot can cause issues,
e.g. servers which allow and support the usage of mod packs.
provide an optional flag to disable this check, at your own risk.
* Make the legacy ping handler more reliable
The Minecraft server often fails to respond to old ("legacy") pings
from old Minecraft versions using the protocol used before the switch
to Netty in Minecraft 1.7.
Due to packet fragmentation[1], we might not have all needed bytes
available when the LegacyPingHandler is called. In this case, it will
run into an error, remove the handler and continue using the modern
protocol.
This is unlikely to happen for the first two revisions of the legacy
ping protocol (used in Minecraft 1.5.x and older) since the request
consists of only one or two bytes, but happens frequently for the
last/third revision introduced in Minecraft 1.6.
It has much larger, variable packet sizes due to the inclusion of
the virtual host (the hostname/port used to connect to the server).
The solution[2] is simple: If we find more than two matching bytes,
we buffer the remaining bytes until we have enough to fully read and
respond to the request.

* Add legacy ping support to PaperServerListPingEvent
Add a new method to StatusClient check if the client is a legacy
client that does not support all of the features provided in the
event.
