Player Relay

✨ New Features

Server support [⚠️EXPERIMENTAL]

• If both the client and the server have Player Relay installed, the mod should work between clients
• Players may still manually connect (/connect) to an external relay if they want to see player info from another server
• The server must have Ping Wheel installed for other players to send and receive pings
  • Player Relay only relays Ping Wheel pings when connected to a P2P relay, not a server - it's Ping Wheel's job to broadcast the packets

Parties

• Server only feature
• Restricts player information to only members of the party
• Currently doesn't save when exiting world

Join codes

• Encrypts whichever connection address is provided
  Address for connecting can be changed in General->Host->Connection Address
• Does not hide your IP address, only obscures it from being easily visible

New config options

• General
  • Use Encrypted Join Codes - turn off to replace join codes (j:DGcvwwreF ...) with addresses
    (default: ON)
• Client
  • Use Resource Pack Icons - turn on to replace vanilla icons with the ones in your resource pack
    (default: OFF)

🔧️ Fixes & Improvements

• IP addresses in logs and chat are replaced with fingerprints (Peer<gt4dsf>)
• Clients can now view their ender chest contents immediately on join, without needing to open an ender chest first, as long as the server has the mod installed
• Player list now updates every tick instead of every frame

🔃 Major Code Refactors

Large portions of the codebase were restructured to support client ↔ server communication

This should improve how Player Relay works internally, but may also introduce new bugs
