Opencomputers: Kicked by AFK while using computers

[joserobjr]

If a server has player-idle-timeout=5 configured on server.properties the players will be kicked for AFK even when they are actively interacting with computers.

Minecraft: 1.7.10
OpenComputers: 1.6.0.3-rc.1

It's an issue of afk-detection, it's not really related to OC. All that
detection knows is that you're not moving at all. Nothing to be done on the
side of OC, though I might be wrong here.

It is related with OpenComputers because the AFK detection is vanilla and is present on any forge server setup.

The vanilla detection resets the AFK timer when it receives a packet generated from a player interaction to the game, since OpenComputers uses custom packets to handle interactions to the monitor GUIs it needs to reset the timer when that packets are received.

I looked into the OpenComputers source code and I think that all is needed to do is to add p.player.func_143004_u() to methods executed on player interactions on the PacketHandler class, the methods are already described on the PacketType class

A good example can be found on net.minecraft.network.NetHandlerPlayServer in the methods processPlayerDigging(), processPlayerBlockPlacement(), processHeldItemChange(), etc

Thanks for the pointers, should be fixed now!
