Minecraft EmuServer

JRSmile · January 21, 2012

Hello There,

i want to create a little Minecraft 1.1 server which is capable of using the Minecraft client as GUI for AutoIT to do homeautomation.

this is what i have so far.

#NoTrayIcon
#include "TCP.au3"
ToolTip("SERVER: Creating server...", 10, 30)
$hServer = _TCP_Server_Create(25565); A MineCraftServer. Tadaa!
_TCP_RegisterEvent($hServer, $TCP_NEWCLIENT, "NewClient")
_TCP_RegisterEvent($hServer, $TCP_DISCONNECT, "Disconnect")
_TCP_RegisterEvent($hServer, $TCP_RECEIVE, "Received")
While 1
WEnd
Func NewClient($hSocket, $iError)
ToolTip("SERVER: New client connected.", 10, 30)
EndFunc   ;==>NewClient
Func Disconnect($hSocket, $iError)
ToolTip("SERVER: Client disconnected.", 10, 30)
EndFunc   ;==>Disconnect
Func Received($hSocket, $sReceived, $iError)
ConsoleWrite(">| " & Binary($sReceived) & @CRLF)
Protocol(Binary($sReceived),$hSocket)
EndFunc   ;==>Disconnect
Func Protocol($stream,$hSocket)
switch StringLeft($stream,4)
  Case 0xFE
   ConsoleWrite("+| Server List Ping" & @CRLF)
   _TCP_Send($hSocket, 0xFF)
  Case 0x02
   $username = BinaryToString("0x" & StringTrimLeft($stream,8),3) ; all strings are UCS-2 encoded which is luckily the same as UTF-16 BigEndian.
   ConsoleWrite("+| Handshake by " & $username & @CRLF)
   _TCP_Send($hSocket, "0x020001002D") ; StringToBinary("-",3)
  case Else
   ConsoleWrite("!| Unknown Packet!" & @CRLF)
   _TCP_Send($hSocket, 0xFF)
EndSwitch
EndFunc

It uses the from Kip.

as you can see it's not very much, the minecraft client recognices the server as online and can connect to it.

As of the Server Protocol specs http://wiki.vg/Protocol i have to send a Handshake reply to the client in order to proceed.

the specs say i have to send the packetid which is 0x02 for Handshake then the length of the string which would be 1 char because i don't use authentification and the a "-" (minus) in UTF-16 BigEndian.

But it Doesn't work, either autoit can't send HEX values longer then 8 i think or i have to send it as string which is bad to for the client.

Can' somebody explain to me how i can send it the correct way, or tell me a bit about binary analyses?

I don't think that doing a stringleft with binary is the right way but i can't figure out the correct one.

Best regards,

J.

Ok, did some progress, the handshake is working ....

still no clue how to do binary stuff correctly.

and hanging on the Login Request Reply...

in addition from Ward is beeing used to compress chunk data for the Client, some how.

#cs
What's the normal login sequence for a client?

See Authentication for communication with minecraft.net

    The recommended login sequence looks like this, where C is the client and S is the server:

    C <> S : Connects
    C >  S : Sends handshake
    C <  S : Sends handshake response
    C >  S : After authenticating (if needed), sends the login packet
    C <  S : Either kicks (invalid login) or sends a login response
    C <  S : Sends pre-chunks and chunks and entities
    C <  S : Sends spawn position
    C <  S : Sends inventory [Need to verify this since inventory changed] (beta 1.1_02: looks like Window items with type=0, then a Set slot with window id = -1 and slot = -1)
    C <  S : Tell the client they're ready to spawn by sending a position + look packet. Note: The stance and Y should be swapped when the server sends it to the client (See Protocol Page)!
    C >  S : Sends a position + look packet to confirm the spawn position, with the stance and Y swapped back to the correct positions

I think I've done everything right, but…
…my player isn't spawning!

    After sending the common-sense packets (Handshake, Login, Inventory, Compass and Pre-chunk/Chunk pairs) you need to finally send the player their initial position for them to leave the "Loading Map" screen.

…my client isn't receiving complete map chunks!

    The standard Minecraft server server sends full chunks only when your client is sending player status update packets (any of Player (0x0A) through Player Position & Look (0x0D)).

…all connecting clients spasm and jerk uncontrollably!

    For newer clients, your server needs to send 49 chunks ahead of time, not just one. Send a 7x7 square of chunks, centered on the connecting client's position, before spawning them.

This looks very nice... keep up the good work

Valik · January 22, 2012

This thread was reported since it has the word "game" in it. I'm on the fence about this one. On the one hand, yeah, it breaks the rules. On the other hand, I'm fairly sure Notch would be okay with something like this because it's a rather interesting thing. I also think it may be a bit above the heads of anyone who would use it maliciously. So I think I'll let this thread live.

Hey Valik,

thanks for letting me life

Just to prevent further distraction, its a server, so to the impact on the minecraft community is rather low

you still have to pay for minecraft if you want to use it as client.

the protocol is mentioned on the official wiki and you are encouraged to create 3rd party clients and servers.

in addition you won't be able to "play" the "game" as usual.

Just having a map build previously and imported is used to place buttons and levers and maybe some signs for ingame feedback for the user.

MAYBE Redstone state, which i don't think will be implemented.

No block breaking or placing.

implementation of the protocol just to the state the client thinks it is ingame and starts displaying things i want

ps: any tricks to concatenate binarys ?

Edited January 22, 2012 by JRSmile

czardas · January 22, 2012

I'm not sure what you mean by concatenate binary. I'm also not so familiar with TCP, but I imagine that packets can't be greater than a certain size. At first I thought perhaps you need to use BitOR, but some of the hex values in your code are too large and would need to be split. Could you give an example of what you mean by binary concatenation? I hope to learn something new here.

@Valik You know you're going to have to explain game-botters why this thread is still open at least twice a day from now on right?

JRSmile · January 22, 2012

@Valik You know you're going to have to explain game-botters why this thread is still open at least twice a day from now on right?

First your question, then your answer

I don't think he needs to, because a bot is used to get advantage out of automation in a game, during the fact that this is a server you won't get any advantages out of it for the real game, except the fact that you can use it as GUI as intended.

Thanks for the Help, but it isn't working as i expect.

for example:

$bBinary1 = Binary(0x00000001)
$bBinary2 = Binary(0x00000002)
ConsoleWrite(Hex(_WinHttpBinaryConcat($bBinary1, $bBinary2)))

Func _WinHttpBinaryConcat(ByRef $bBinary1, ByRef $bBinary2)
    Switch IsBinary($bBinary1) + 2 * IsBinary($bBinary2)
        Case 0
            Return SetError(1, 0, Binary(''))
        Case 1
            Return $bBinary1
        Case 2
            Return $bBinary2
    EndSwitch
    Local $tAuxiliary = DllStructCreate("byte[" & BinaryLen($bBinary1) & "];byte[" & BinaryLen($bBinary2) & "]")
    DllStructSetData($tAuxiliary, 1, $bBinary1)
    DllStructSetData($tAuxiliary, 2, $bBinary2)
    Local $tOutput = DllStructCreate("byte[" & DllStructGetSize($tAuxiliary) & "]", DllStructGetPtr($tAuxiliary))
    Return DllStructGetData($tOutput, 1)
EndFunc   ;==>_WinHttpBinaryConcat

results in: 0100000002000000

Which isn't what i need.

I will give a short example of my requirements:

$bBinary1 = Binary(0x00000001)
$bBinary2 = Binary(0x00000002)

$result = MAGIC($bBinary1, $bBinary2)

Consolewrite ($result & @CRLF)

Which should result in: 0x0000000100000002 [isBinary = TRUE]

Do i really have to code it with Stringreplace?

Or maybe is it possible to split the incomming packets into a Struct?

Edited January 22, 2012 by JRSmile

JRSmile · January 22, 2012

I have done a function that returns the thing i want, but is it the correct way to do so?

Func MAGIC($b1,$b2)
if not (IsBinary($b1) and IsBinary($b2)) then return False
ConsoleWrite($b1 & " " & $b2 & @CRLF)
$b1_string = string($b1)
$b2_string = string($b2)
ConsoleWrite($b1_string & @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite($b2_string & @CRLF)
$b1_short = StringTrimLeft($b1_string,2)
$b2_short = StringTrimLeft($b2_string,2)
return Binary("0x" & $b1_short & $b2_short)
EndFunc

You're not making abot and I hope botters will realise that, but the experience is that they will use any reason why they would be allowed to break the rules.

Anyways back to the topic.

I think the problem with how you use 'my' example is the input. I'll try to demonstrate is with an example:

$bBinary1 = Binary(0x00000001)
$bBinary2 = Binary(0x00000002)
ConsoleWrite($bBinary1 & @CRLF) ;this is probably not the input you want?
ConsoleWrite($bBinary2 & @CRLF)
$bReturn = _WinHttpBinaryConcat($bBinary1, $bBinary2)
ConsoleWrite($bReturn & @CRLF) ;concat seems correct to me
ConsoleWrite(IsBinary($bReturn) & @CRLF & @CRLF) ;return type seems correct to me

$bBinary1 = Binary(0x01000000)
$bBinary2 = Binary(0x02000000)
ConsoleWrite($bBinary1 & @CRLF) ;this is probably the input you want?
ConsoleWrite($bBinary2 & @CRLF)
$bReturn = _WinHttpBinaryConcat($bBinary1, $bBinary2)
ConsoleWrite($bReturn & @CRLF) ;concat seems correct to me
ConsoleWrite(IsBinary($bReturn) & @CRLF) ;return type seems correct to me

Func _WinHttpBinaryConcat(ByRef $bBinary1, ByRef $bBinary2)
    Switch IsBinary($bBinary1) + 2 * IsBinary($bBinary2)
        Case 0
            Return SetError(1, 0, Binary(''))
        Case 1
            Return $bBinary1
        Case 2
            Return $bBinary2
    EndSwitch
    Local $tAuxiliary = DllStructCreate("byte[" & BinaryLen($bBinary1) & "];byte[" & BinaryLen($bBinary2) & "]")
    DllStructSetData($tAuxiliary, 1, $bBinary1)
    DllStructSetData($tAuxiliary, 2, $bBinary2)
    Local $tOutput = DllStructCreate("byte[" & DllStructGetSize($tAuxiliary) & "]", DllStructGetPtr($tAuxiliary))
    Return DllStructGetData($tOutput, 1)
EndFunc   ;==>_WinHttpBinaryConcat

I have done a function that returns the thing i want, but is it the correct way to do so?

It should work, You might want to make some speed comparisons with different methods though.

I'd use whatever works for you as a place holder and put a review on your TODO list.

What I don't understand is that the function Binary() seems to ~~perform a BitRotate() operation~~ (actually this is wrong, it's more like byte size segments in reverse order ). It says that Binary() returns a binary variant but this is not clear to me.

I have the same problem understanding it, maybe because of the Big/LittleEndian annoyance?

czardas · January 22, 2012

Sorry, I was editing as you replied. Perhaps a search around the forum will reveal its secrets.

Edit

Here's a promising link:

Edited January 22, 2012 by czardas

JRSmile · January 22, 2012

thank you very much, i may be able to proceed from here,

one additional question

is it possible to create a struct lets say DllStructCreate("byte[" & BinaryLen($bBinary1) & "]) and split it by using a struct which has a different structure and copy the pointer somehow?

czardas · January 22, 2012

Well I have learned something today. I noticed that Manadar was passing a string to the function Binary() and that made quite a difference.

SkinnyWhiteGuy · January 22, 2012

I played a lot with the Binary functions with the Encryption stuff I did. If I recall, it was making sure both parts of the concatenation were Binary, so something like this:

Local $bFirst = "0x01020304"
Local $bSecond = "0x05060708"
ConsoleWrite(Binary($bFirst) & Binary($bSecond) & @CRLF)

@JRSmile, yes, you can do that. While using DLLStructCreate(), just use it's pointer option to point to the other struct's pointer, like this:

Local $tBinary1 = DllStructCreate("byte[4]")
Local $tInt1 = DllstructCreate("int", DllStructGetPtr($tBinary1))
Local $iNumber = DllStructGetData($tInt1, 1)

I think I remember writing a func that I could pass arbitrary Binary data into, and a type, and it took care of creating structs, getting pointers, and just returned the data I was looking for. If no one else thinks of it before I can get home and find it, I'll try to post it here.

Thank you very much, that would help me a lot with analysing incomming packet structures.

ps, works great already:

$bBinary1 = 0x0000000F
Local $tBinary1 = DllStructCreate("byte[4]")
DllStructSetData($tBinary1,1,$bBinary1)
Local $tInt1 = DllstructCreate("int", DllStructGetPtr($tBinary1))
ConsoleWrite(DllStructGetData($tInt1,1))
$tBinary1 = 0
$tInt1 = 0

can't wait for your function to arrive

pps: love your avatar

SkinnyWhiteGuy · January 22, 2012

Found a copy of that function on my laptop:

Local $bData = Binary("0x00000001")
ConsoleWrite(LoadState($bData, "int") & @CRLF)

Func LoadState(ByRef $byte_stream, $type)
    If $type = "string" Then
        Local $size = LoadState($byte_stream, "int")
        Return LoadState($data, "char[" & $size - 1 & "]")
    EndIf
    Local $temp = DllStructCreate($type), $output = DllStructCreate("byte[" & DllStructGetSize($temp) & "]", DllStructGetPtr($temp))
    DllStructSetData($output, 1, BinaryMid($byte_stream, 1, DllStructGetSize($temp)))
    $byte_stream = BinaryMid($byte_stream, 1 + DllStructGetSize($temp))
    Return DllStructGetData($temp, 1)
EndFunc

This version was made to take the data off the Binary Stream coming in, so you could call it multiple times to pull out different values.

Just as a note: this will pull values from the Binary data as Little Endian order (which from my Wikipedia searching is what Windows stores things as). If you need it as Big Endian, you will have to do some massaging of the data.

Edited January 22, 2012 by SkinnyWhiteGuy

JRSmile · January 22, 2012

thanks, i deal with a java client so Big Endian is the word of the day... will have to figure that out

SkinnyWhiteGuy · January 22, 2012

I play Minecraft too, I might have to try out your script and see what it's doing.

Try it and see what it returns, if the numbers/data doesn't look right, I might can help get it flipped back around.
