Packet Enrichment Module

Overview

The packet enrichment module provides servers with additional information about already existing packets and/or adds additional packets to provide servers with extra information about a player.

We have an open-source reference plugin (opens in a new tab) that leverages the PLAYER_USE_ITEM_BUCKET_PACKET to eliminate water and lava bucket desync on 1.7 and 1.8.

This module is disabled by default, if you wish to use this module you will need to enable it in config.yml.
