Calculating the center of an image: given a (width × height) grid of cells, with (0, 0) being the top left corner, the center is (max(0, width / 2 - 1), height / 2). E.g. (1, 0) for a 2×1 painting, or (1, 2) for a 4×4 painting.

NBT Data NBT Tag Data to set. May be a TAG_END (0), in which case the block entity at the given location is removed (though this is not required since the client will remove the block entity automatically on chunk unload or block removal)

Action field:

  • 1: Set data of a mob spawner (everything except for SpawnPotentials: current delay, min/max delay, mob to be spawned, spawn count, spawn range, etc.)
  • 2: Set command block text (command and last execution status)

  • 8: Set the destination for a end gateway
  • 9: Set the text on a sign

Block Change

Fired whenever a block is changed within the render distance.

Changing a block in a chunk that is not loaded is not a stable action. The Notchian client currently uses a shared empty chunk which is modified for all block changes in unloaded chunks; while in 1.9 this chunk never renders in older versions the changed block will appear in all copies of the empty chunk. Servers should avoid sending block changes in unloaded chunks and clients should ignore such packets.

Changing blocks in chunks not loaded by the client is unsafe (see note on Block Change).

Volume Float 1 is 100%, can be more
Pitch Float Float between 0.5 and 2.0 by Notchian clients

Effect

Sent when a client is to play a sound or particle effect.

By default, the Minecraft client adjusts the volume of sound effects based on distance. The final boolean field is used to disable this, and instead the effect is played from 2 blocks away in the correct direction. Currently this is only used for effect 1023 (wither spawn) and effect 1028 (enderdragon death); it is ignored on other effects.

Pick Item

Used to swap out an empty space on the hotbar with the item in the given inventory slot. The Notchain client uses this for pick block functionality (middle click) to retrieve items from the inventory.


Packet ID State Bound To Field Name Field Type Notes
0x15 Play Server Slot to use VarInt See Inventory

The server will first search the player's hotbar for an empty slot, starting from the current slot and looping around to the slot before it. If there are no empty slots, it will start a second search from the current slot and find the first slot that does not contain an enchanted item. If there still are no slots that meet that criteria, then the server will use the currently selected slot.

After finding the appropriate slot, the server swaps the items and then send 3 packets:

  • Set Slot, with window ID set to -2 and slot set to the newly chosen slot and the item set to the item that is now in that slot (which was previously at the slot the client requested)
  • Set Slot, with window ID set to -2 and slot set to the slot the player requested, with the item that is now in that slot and was previously on the hotbar slot
  • Held Item Change, with the slot set to the newly chosen slot.


Craft Recipe Request

A replacement for Prepare Crafting Grid. It appears to behave more or less the same, but the client does not specify where to move the items.

This packet is sent when a player clicks a recipe in the crafting book that is craftable (white border).

Smelting Recipe Filter Active Boolean Whether the player has the smelting recipe book filter option currently active.

The Recipe Book Status type is sent when one of the states changes.


Name Item

Sent as a player is renaming an item in an anvil (each keypress in the anvil UI sends a new {{#if:MC|ItemName|MC|ItemName}}{{#if:Name Item|{{#if:MC|ItemName| }}Name Item}} packet). If the new name is empty, then the item loses its custom name (this is different from setting the custom name to the normal name of the item). The item name may be no longer than 35 characters long, and if it is longer than that, then the rename is silently ignored.

Possible actions:

  • {{#if:1|1}}{{#if:0|{{#if:1| }}0}} - Update data
  • {{#if:2|2}}{{#if:1|{{#if:2| }}1}} - Save the structure
  • {{#if:3|3}}{{#if:2|{{#if:3| }}2}} - Load the structure
  • {{#if:4|4}}{{#if:3|{{#if:4| }}3}} - Detect size

{{#if:All other values are ignored. |All other values are ignored. }}{{#if:|{{#if:All other values are ignored. | }}{{{2}}}}}The Notchian client uses {{#if:1|1}}{{#if:update data|{{#if:1| }}update data}} to indicate no special action should be taken (i.e. the done button).

Handshaking

Clientbound

There are no clientbound packets in the Handshaking state, since the protocol immediately switches to a different state after the client sends the first packet.

Serverbound

Handshake

This causes the server to switch into the target state.

Packet ID State Bound To Field Name Field Type Notes
0x00 Handshaking Server Protocol Version VarInt See protocol version numbers (currently {{#if:340|340}}{{#if:401|{{#if:340| }}401}})
Server Address String Hostname or IP, e.g. localhost or 127.0.0.1, that was used to connect. The Notchian server does not use this information.
Server Port Unsigned Short Default is 25565. The Notchian server does not use this information.
Next State VarInt Enum 1 for status, 2 for login

Login

Clientbound

Login Plugin Request

Used to implement a custom handshaking flow together with Login Plugin Response.

Unlike plugin messages in "play" mode, these messages follow a lock-step request/response scheme, where the client is expected to respond to a request indicating whether it understood. The vanilla client always responds that it hasn't understood, and sends an empty payload.

Packet ID State Bound To Field Name Field Type Notes
0x04 Play Client Message ID VarInt Generated by the server - should be unique to the connection.
Channel Identifier Name of the plugin channel used to send the data
Data Byte Array Any data, depending on the channel. MC| channels are documented here. The length of this array must be inferred from the packet length.

0x02 Play Client Message ID VarInt Should match ID from server.
Successful Boolean true if the client understands the request, false otherwise. When false, no payload follows.
