Paper: 1.13: Readd Anti Xray

[aikar]

Patch removed, needs to be re added.
0235-Anti-Xray.patch

[stonar96]

I have looked at the source and checked the changes and it shouldn't be that hard to readd Anti-Xray from my point of view. There are infact minor changes for example in DataPaletteBlock but the functionality is all in all still the same such that it can be easy reimplemented by going through the old patch file with small adjustments.

I think it's easier (not just for me) if you (the Paper Core Team) readd it by yourself and if you have any questions or need my help at a specific point you can ask me here of course. Once it is readded I would of course check it.

Please give me a short answer if that's okay for you.

You're probably going to think i'm just piling on work. It seems like you're really busy and I'm really impressed by how much work you've put in to Paper 1.13.

Still I wanted to tell you guys about this before someone else takes the opportunity. I am willing to give you my entire budget for ore block obfuscation to whoever produces a stable anti-xray update first.

I've spoken with the Orebfuscator devs. They are aware of this bounty, but I wanted you to know too so you don't lose the chance to make some money producing this update.

It's an important enough target for me that I want to put money on whomever gets a stable release out first.

Any news on this?

Stonar gave us an update on IRC that there is some significant rework needed for 1.13. He is looking into it, no ETA.

[stonar96]

Looks good so far. I have a basic concept now and started implementing it yet. DataPaletteBlock needs a few changes. The reason is that in 1.13 DataPaletteBlock is directly loaded from NBT.

There is also the new ProtoChunk instead of ChunkSnapshot which also uses DataPaletteBlock now.

All this makes it harder for me to add the predefined block data to the DataPalettes which are used to obfuscate the chunk packets.

It sounds like you may want testing & feedback at some stage. I am happy to also provide testing & feedback at that stage to advance the update towards a stable release.

Just in case someone is interested, this is a screenshot of testing the first build (with working obfuscation). There are still many things to implement at the moment, such as the block updates, but most of the work is done. https://github.com/stonar96/Paper/tree/feature/anti-xray/2.0/pre/1.13

Someone is interested! How do I download the file?

[chistian95]

@NullCase you have to compile the fork stonar96 has made

[NullCase]

I have to compile it. Ok, it sounds like I ought to wait instead. Otherwise i'd learn from scratch. By that time this patch might already be added to paper :smile:

Hello,

Could you help?
