This page documents the changes from release 1.21.1 (protocol 767) to the current release (1.21.3, protocol 768). The stable protocol documentation is currently lagging behind, and the changes documented here will be merged soon, once they are complete. The current pre-release (snapshot 24w44a) is not yet documented.
He who wishes to commandeer the merging of this into [[Protocol]] when an update is made must be sure to respect any changes that may have occured to the respective packets there.

* Removed unused field 'Stance' from Player Position and Look (Clientbound)
 
* Removed unused fields 'N/A' and 'Level Type' from Join Game (Clientbound)

If Window ID is 0, the hotbar and offhand slots (slots 36 through 45) may be updated even when a different container window is open. (The Notchian server does not appear to utilize this special case.) Updates are also restricted to those slots when the player is looking at a creative inventory tab other than the survival inventory. (The Notchian server does ''not'' handle this restriction in any way, leading to [https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-242392 MC-242392].)

{{change|If Window ID is -2, any slot in the player's inventory can be updated irrespective of the current container window. In this case, State ID is ignored, and the Notchian server uses a bogus value of 0. Used by the Notchian server to implement the [[#Pick Item]] functionality.|}}
  
MOBS: 5
+
When a container window is open, the server never sends updates targeting Window ID 0&mdash;all of the [[Inventory|window types]] include slots for the player inventory. The client must automatically apply changes targeting the inventory portion of a container window to the main inventory; the server does not resend them for ID 0 when the window is closed. However, since the armor and offhand slots are only present on ID 0, updates to those slots occurring while a window is open must be deferred by the server until the window's closure.
  
ANIMALS: 6

==== Set Cooldown ====
  
PLAYERS: 7
+
Applies a cooldown period to all items with the given type.  Used by the Notchian server with enderpearls.  This packet should be sent when the cooldown starts and also when the cooldown ends (to compensate for lag), although the client will end the cooldown automatically. Can be applied to any item, note that interactions still get sent to the server with the item but the client does not play the animation nor attempt to predict results (i.e block placing).

The properties included in this packet are the same as in [[#Login Success|Login Success]], for the current player.
  
==== Window Property ====
+
Ping values correspond with icons in the following way:
{| class="wikitable"
+
* A ping that negative (i.e. not known to the server yet) will result in the no connection icon.
! Packet ID !! Field Name !! Field Type !! Notes
+
* A ping under 150 milliseconds will result in 5 bars
|-
+
* A ping under 300 milliseconds will result in 4 bars
| rowspan="3" | 0x31
+
* A ping under 600 milliseconds will result in 3 bars
| Window ID || Byte || The id of the window.
+
* A ping under 1000 milliseconds (1 second) will result in 2 bars
|-
+
* A ping greater than or equal to 1 second will result in 1 bar.
| Property || Short || Which property should be updated.
 
|-
 
| Value || Short || The new value for the property.
 
|}
 
  
'''Furnace'''
+
The order of players in the player list is determined as follows:
 +
* {{change||Players with higher priorities are sorted before those with lower priorities.}}
 +
* {{change||Among players of equal priorities, }}spectators are sorted after non-spectators.
 +
* Within each of those groups, players are sorted into teams. The teams are ordered case-sensitively by team name in ascending order. Players with no team are listed first.
 +
* The players of each team (and non-team) are sorted case-insensitively by name in ascending order.
  
Properties:
+
==== Synchronize Player Position ====
  
* 0: Progress arrow
+
Teleports the client, e.g. during login, when using an ender pearl, in response to invalid move packets, etc.
* 1: Fire icon (fuel)
 
  
Values:
+
Due to latency, the server may receive outdated movement packets sent before the client was aware of the teleport. To account for this, the server ignores all movement packets from the client until a [[#Confirm Teleportation|Confirm Teleportation]] packet with an ID matching the one sent in the teleport packet is received.
  
* 0-200 for progress arrow
+
Yaw is measured in degrees, and does not follow classical trigonometry rules. The unit circle of yaw on the XZ-plane starts at (0, 1) and turns counterclockwise, with 90 at (-1, 0), 180 at (0, -1) and 270 at (1, 0). Additionally, yaw is not clamped to between 0 and 360 degrees; any number is valid, including negative numbers and numbers greater than 360 (see [https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-90097 MC-90097]).
* 0-200 for fuel indicator
 
  
Ranges are presumably in in-game ticks
+
Pitch is measured in degrees, where 0 is looking straight ahead, -90 is looking straight up, and 90 is looking straight down.

Notchian clients send a 0 (started digging) when they start digging and a 2 (finished digging) once they think they are finished. If digging is aborted, the client simply send a 1 (Cancel digging).
+
==== Client Tick End ====
  
Status code 4 (drop item) is a special case. In-game, when you use the Drop Item command (keypress 'q'), a dig packet with a status of 4, and all other values set to 0, is sent from client to server. Status code 3 is similar, but drops the entire stack.

In 1.7.3, when a player opens a door with left click the server receives Packet 0xE+start digging and opens the door.
+
See [[Inventory]] for further information about how slots are indexed.
  
==== Player Block Placement ====
+
After performing the action, the server compares the results to the slot change information included in the packet, as applied on top of the server's view of the container's state prior to the action. For any slots that do not match, it sends [[#Set Container Slot|Set Container Slot]] packets containing the correct results. If State ID does not match the last ID sent by the server, it will instead send a full [[#Set Container Content|Set Container Content]] to resynchronize the client.

In normal operation (ie placing a block), this packet is sent once, with the values set normally.
 
  
This packet has a special case where X, Y, Z, and Direction are all -1. (Note that Y is unsigned so set to 255.) This special packet indicates that the currently held item for the player should have its state updated such as eating food, shooting bows, using buckets, etc.
+
When right-clicking on a stack of items, half the stack will be picked up and half left in the slot. If the stack is an odd number, the half left in the slot will be smaller of the amounts.
  
In a Notchian Beta client, the block or item ID corresponds to whatever the client is currently holding, and the client sends one of these packets any time a right-click is issued on a surface, so no assumptions can be made about the safety of the ID.  However, with the implementation of server-side inventory, a Notchian server seems to ignore the item ID, instead operating on server-side inventory information and holding selection. The client has been observed (1.2.5 and 1.3.2) to send both real item IDs and -1 in a single session.
+
The distinct type of click performed by the client is determined by the combination of the Mode and Button fields.
  
Special note on using buckets: When using buckets, the Notchian client might send two packets: first a normal and then a special caseThe first normal packet is sent when you're looking at a block (e.g. the water you want to scoop up).  This normal packet does not appear to do anything with a Notchian serverThe second, special case packet appears to perform the action - based on current position/orientation and with a distance check - it appears that buckets can only be used within a radius of 6 units.

==== Held Item Change ====
+
Starting from version 1.5, “painting mode” is available for use in inventory windows. It is done by picking up stack of something (more than 1 item), then holding mouse button (left, right or middle) and dragging held stack over empty (or same type in case of right button) slots. In that case client sends the following to server after mouse button release (omitting first pickup packet which is sent as usual):
{| class="wikitable"
+
 
! Packet ID !! Field Name !! Field Type !! Notes
+
# packet with mode 5, slot -999, button (0 for left | 4 for right);
|-
+
# packet for every slot painted on, mode is still 5, button (1 | 5);
| rowspan=1 | 0x09
+
# packet with mode 5, slot -999, button (2 | 6);
| Slot || Short || The slot which the player has selected (0-8)
 
|}
 
  
==== Animation ====
+
If any of the painting packets other than the “progress” ones are sent out of order (for example, a start, some slots, then another start; or a left-click in the middle) the painting status will be reset.

If the player is sleeping, the position (or rotation) is not changed, and a [[#Synchronize Player Position|Synchronize Player Position]] is sent if the received position deviated from the server's view by more than a meter.

The Notchian server silently clamps the x and z coordinates between -30,000,000 and 30,000,000, and the y coordinate between -20,000,000 and 20,000,000. A similar condition has historically caused a kick for "Illegal position"; this is no longer the case. However, infinite or NaN coordinates (or angles) still result in a kick for <code>multiplayer.disconnect.invalid_player_movement</code>.
  
When right-clicking on a stack of items, half the stack will be picked up and half left in the slot.  If the stack is an odd number, the half left in the slot will be smaller of the amounts.
+
As of 1.20.6, checking for moving too fast is achieved like this (sic):
  
The Action number is actually a counter, starting at 1. This number is used by the server as a transaction ID to send back a [[#0x6A|Transaction packet]].
+
* Each server tick, the player's current position is stored.
 +
* When the player moves, the offset from the stored position to the requested position is computed (&Delta;x, &Delta;y, &Delta;z).
 +
* The requested movement distance squared is computed as &Delta;x&sup2; + &Delta;y&sup2; + &Delta;z&sup2;.
 +
* The baseline expected movement distance squared is computed based on  the player's server-side velocity as Vx&sup2; + Vy&sup2; + Vz&sup2;. The player's server-side velocity is a somewhat ill-defined quantity that includes among other things gravity, jump velocity and knockback, but ''not'' regular horizontal movement. A proper description would bring much of Minecraft's physics engine with it. It is accessible as the <code>Motion</code> NBT tag on the player entity.
 +
* The maximum permitted movement distance squared is computed as 100 (300 if the player is using an elytra), multiplied by the number of movement packets received since the last tick, including this one, unless that value is greater than 5, in which case no multiplier is applied.
 +
* If the requested movement distance squared minus the baseline distance squared is more than the maximum squared, the player is moving too fast.
  
The distinct type of click performed by the client is determined by the combination of the "Mode" and "Button" fields.
+
If the player is moving too fast, it is logged that "<player> moved too quickly! " followed by the change in x, y, and z, and the player is teleported back to their current (before this packet) server-side position.

Starting from version 1.5, "painting mode" is available for use in inventory windows. It is done by picking up stack of something (more than 1 items), then holding mouse button (left, right or middle) and dragging holded stack over empty (or same type in case of right button ) slots. In that case client sends the following to server after mouse button release (omitting first pickup packet which is sent as usual):
+
Checking for block collisions is achieved like this:
  
# packet with mode 5, slot -999 , button (0 for left | 4 for right);
+
* A temporary collision-checked move of the player is attempted from its current position to the requested one.
# packet for every slot painted on, mode is still 5, button (1 | 5);
+
* The offset from the resulting position to the requested position is computed. If the absolute value of the offset on the y axis is less than 0.5, it (only the y component) is rounded down to 0.
# packet with mode 5, slot -999, button (2 | 6);
+
* If the magnitude of the offset is greater than 0.25 and the player isn't in creative or spectator mode, it is logged that "<player> moved wrongly!", and the player is teleported back to their current (before this packet) server-side position.
 +
* In addition, if the player's hitbox stationary at the requested position would intersect with a block, and they aren't in spectator mode, they are teleported back without a log message.
  
If any of the painting packets other than the "progress" ones are sent out of order (for example, a start, some slots, then another start; or a left-click in the middle) the painting status will be reset.
+
Checking for illegal flight is achieved like this:
  
==== Confirm Transaction  ====
+
* When a movement packet is received, a flag indicating whether or not the player is floating mid-air is updated. The flag is set if the move test described above detected no collision below the player ''and'' the y component of the offset from the player's current position to the requested one is greater than -0.5, unless any of various conditions permitting flight (creative mode, elytra, levitation effect, etc., but not jumping) are met.
{| class="wikitable"
+
* Each server tick, it is checked if the flag has been set for more than 80 consecutive ticks. If so, and the player isn't currently sleeping, dead or riding a vehicle, they are kicked for <code>multiplayer.disconnect.flying</code>.

Yaw is measured in degrees, and does not follow classical trigonometry rules. The unit circle of yaw on the XZ-plane starts at (0, 1) and turns counterclockwise, with 90 at (-1, 0), 180 at (0,-1) and 270 at (1, 0). Additionally, yaw is not clamped to between 0 and 360 degrees; any number is valid, including negative numbers and numbers greater than 360.

This packet as well as [[#Set Player Position|Set Player Position]], [[#Set Player Rotation|Set Player Rotation]], and [[#Set Player Position and Rotation|Set Player Position and Rotation]] are called the “serverbound movement packets”. Vanilla clients will send Move Player Position once every 20 ticks even for a stationary player.
  
== Status ==
+
This packet is used to indicate whether the player is on ground (walking/swimming), or airborne (jumping/falling).
The status ping works as follows.  
 
    C->S : Handshake State=1
 
    C->S : Request
 
    S->C : Response
 
    C->S : Ping
 
    S->C : Ping
 
  
=== Clientbound ===
+
When dropping from sufficient height, fall damage is applied when this state goes from false to true. The amount of damage applied is based on the point where it last changed from true to false. Note that there are several movement related packets containing this state.

The Cursor Position X/Y/Z fields (also known as in-block coordinates) are calculated using raytracing. The unit corresponds to sixteen pixels in the default resource pack. For example, let's say a slab is being placed against the south face of a full block. The Cursor Position X will be higher if the player was pointing near the right (east) edge of the face, lower if pointing near the left. The Cursor Position Y will be used to determine whether it will appear as a bottom slab (values 0.0–0.5) or as a top slab (values 0.5-1.0). The Cursor Position Z should be 1.0 since the player was looking at the southernmost part of the block.

Inside block is true when a player's head (specifically eyes) are inside of a block's collision. In 1.13 and later versions, collision is rather complicated and individual blocks can have multiple collision boxes. For instance, a ring of vines has a non-colliding hole in the middle. This value is only true when the player is directly in the box. In practice, though, this value is only used by scaffolding to place in front of the player when sneaking inside of it (other blocks will place behind when you intersect with them -- try with glass for instance).

Latest revision as of 09:33, 26 November 2024

This page documents the changes from release 1.21.1 (protocol 767) to the current release (1.21.3, protocol 768). The stable protocol documentation is currently lagging behind, and the changes documented here will be merged soon, once they are complete. The current pre-release (snapshot 24w44a) is not yet documented.

One who wishes to commandeer the merging of this into Protocol when an update is made must be sure to respect any changes that may have occurred to the respective packets there.

Data types

Name Size (bytes) Encodes Notes
Teleport Flags 4 See #Teleport Flags Bit field specifying how a teleportation is to be applied on each axis.
Recipe Display Varies See Recipes#Recipe Display structure Description of a recipe for use for use by the client.
Slot Display Varies See Recipes#Slot Display structure Description of a recipe ingredient slot for use for use by the client.

Teleport Flags

A bit field represented as an Int, specifying how a teleportation is to be applied on each axis.

In the lower 8 bits of the bit field, a set bit means the teleportation on the corresponding axis is relative, and an unset bit that it is absolute.

Hex Mask Field
0x0001 Relative X
0x0002 Relative Y
0x0004 Relative Z
0x0008 Relative Yaw
0x0010 Relative Pitch
0x0020 Relative Velocity X
0x0040 Relative Velocity Y
0x0080 Relative Velocity Z
0x0100 Rotate velocity according to the change in rotation, before applying the velocity change in this packet. Combining this with absolute rotation works as expected—the difference in rotation is still used.

Set Container Slot

Sent by the server when an item in a slot (in a window) is added/removed.

Packet ID State Bound To Field Name Field Type Notes
protocol:

resource:
container_set_slot
Play Client Window ID Unsigned Byte VarInt The window which is being updated. 0 for player inventory. The client ignores any packets targeting a Window ID other than the current one; see below for exceptions , unless it is 0 (see below).
State ID VarInt A server-managed sequence number used to avoid desynchronization; see #Click Container.
Slot Short The slot that should be updated.
Slot Data Slot

If Window ID is 0, the hotbar and offhand slots (slots 36 through 45) may be updated even when a different container window is open. (The Notchian server does not appear to utilize this special case.) Updates are also restricted to those slots when the player is looking at a creative inventory tab other than the survival inventory. (The Notchian server does not handle this restriction in any way, leading to MC-242392.)

If Window ID is -1, the item being dragged with the mouse is set. In this case, State ID and Slot are ignored.

If Window ID is -2, any slot in the player's inventory can be updated irrespective of the current container window. In this case, State ID is ignored, and the Notchian server uses a bogus value of 0. Used by the Notchian server to implement the #Pick Item functionality.

When a container window is open, the server never sends updates targeting Window ID 0—all of the window types include slots for the player inventory. The client must automatically apply changes targeting the inventory portion of a container window to the main inventory; the server does not resend them for ID 0 when the window is closed. However, since the armor and offhand slots are only present on ID 0, updates to those slots occurring while a window is open must be deferred by the server until the window's closure.

Set Cooldown

Applies a cooldown period to all items with the given type. Used by the Notchian server with enderpearls. This packet should be sent when the cooldown starts and also when the cooldown ends (to compensate for lag), although the client will end the cooldown automatically. Can be applied to any item, note that interactions still get sent to the server with the item but the client does not play the animation nor attempt to predict results (i.e block placing).

Teleport Entity

Warning.png The Mojang-specified name of this packet was changed in 1.21.2 from teleport_entity to entity_position_sync. There is a new teleport_entity, which this document more appropriately calls Synchronize Vehicle Position. That packet has a different function and will lead to confusing results if used in place of this one.

This packet is sent by the server when an entity moves more than 8 blocks.

The properties included in this packet are the same as in Login Success, for the current player.

Ping values correspond with icons in the following way:

  • A ping that negative (i.e. not known to the server yet) will result in the no connection icon.
  • A ping under 150 milliseconds will result in 5 bars
  • A ping under 300 milliseconds will result in 4 bars
  • A ping under 600 milliseconds will result in 3 bars
  • A ping under 1000 milliseconds (1 second) will result in 2 bars
  • A ping greater than or equal to 1 second will result in 1 bar.

The order of players in the player list is determined as follows:

  • Players with higher priorities are sorted before those with lower priorities.
  • Among players of equal priorities, spectators are sorted after non-spectators.
  • Within each of those groups, players are sorted into teams. The teams are ordered case-sensitively by team name in ascending order. Players with no team are listed first.
  • The players of each team (and non-team) are sorted case-insensitively by name in ascending order.

Synchronize Player Position

Teleports the client, e.g. during login, when using an ender pearl, in response to invalid move packets, etc.

Due to latency, the server may receive outdated movement packets sent before the client was aware of the teleport. To account for this, the server ignores all movement packets from the client until a Confirm Teleportation packet with an ID matching the one sent in the teleport packet is received.

Yaw is measured in degrees, and does not follow classical trigonometry rules. The unit circle of yaw on the XZ-plane starts at (0, 1) and turns counterclockwise, with 90 at (-1, 0), 180 at (0, -1) and 270 at (1, 0). Additionally, yaw is not clamped to between 0 and 360 degrees; any number is valid, including negative numbers and numbers greater than 360 (see MC-90097).

Pitch is measured in degrees, where 0 is looking straight ahead, -90 is looking straight up, and 90 is looking straight down.

Data kept Byte Bit mask. 0x01: Keep attributes, 0x02: Keep metadata. Tells which data should be kept on the client side once the player has respawned.

In the Notchian implementation, this is context dependent:

  • normal respawns (after death) keep no data;
  • exiting the end poem/credits keeps the attributes;
  • other dimension changes (portals or teleports) keep all data.

Warning.png Avoid changing player's dimension to same dimension they were already in unless they are dead. If you change the dimension to one they are already in, weird bugs can occur, such as the player being unable to attack other players in new world (until they die and respawn).

Before 1.16, if you must respawn a player in the same dimension without killing them, send two respawn packets, one to a different world and then another to the world you want. You do not need to complete the first respawn; it only matters that you send two packets.

Carried item Slot Item carried by the cursor. Has to be empty (item ID = -1) for drop mode, otherwise nothing will happen.

See Inventory for further information about how slots are indexed.

After performing the action, the server compares the results to the slot change information included in the packet, as applied on top of the server's view of the container's state prior to the action. For any slots that do not match, it sends Set Container Slot packets containing the correct results. If State ID does not match the last ID sent by the server, it will instead send a full Set Container Content to resynchronize the client.

When right-clicking on a stack of items, half the stack will be picked up and half left in the slot. If the stack is an odd number, the half left in the slot will be smaller of the amounts.

The distinct type of click performed by the client is determined by the combination of the Mode and Button fields.

1 Normal Pickup all but check items in reverse order (impossible in vanilla clients)

Starting from version 1.5, “painting mode” is available for use in inventory windows. It is done by picking up stack of something (more than 1 item), then holding mouse button (left, right or middle) and dragging held stack over empty (or same type in case of right button) slots. In that case client sends the following to server after mouse button release (omitting first pickup packet which is sent as usual):

  1. packet with mode 5, slot -999, button (0 for left | 4 for right);
  2. packet for every slot painted on, mode is still 5, button (1 | 5);
  3. packet with mode 5, slot -999, button (2 | 6);

If any of the painting packets other than the “progress” ones are sent out of order (for example, a start, some slots, then another start; or a left-click in the middle) the painting status will be reset.

Set Player Position

Updates the player's XYZ position on the server.

If the player is in a vehicle, the position is ignored (but in case of Set Player Position and Rotation, the rotation is still used as normal). No validation steps other than value range clamping are performed in this case.

If the player is sleeping, the position (or rotation) is not changed, and a Synchronize Player Position is sent if the received position deviated from the server's view by more than a meter.

The Notchian server silently clamps the x and z coordinates between -30,000,000 and 30,000,000, and the y coordinate between -20,000,000 and 20,000,000. A similar condition has historically caused a kick for "Illegal position"; this is no longer the case. However, infinite or NaN coordinates (or angles) still result in a kick for multiplayer.disconnect.invalid_player_movement.

As of 1.20.6, checking for moving too fast is achieved like this (sic):

  • Each server tick, the player's current position is stored.
  • When the player moves, the offset from the stored position to the requested position is computed (Δx, Δy, Δz).
  • The requested movement distance squared is computed as Δx² + Δy² + Δz².
  • The baseline expected movement distance squared is computed based on the player's server-side velocity as Vx² + Vy² + Vz². The player's server-side velocity is a somewhat ill-defined quantity that includes among other things gravity, jump velocity and knockback, but not regular horizontal movement. A proper description would bring much of Minecraft's physics engine with it. It is accessible as the Motion NBT tag on the player entity.
  • The maximum permitted movement distance squared is computed as 100 (300 if the player is using an elytra), multiplied by the number of movement packets received since the last tick, including this one, unless that value is greater than 5, in which case no multiplier is applied.
  • If the requested movement distance squared minus the baseline distance squared is more than the maximum squared, the player is moving too fast.

If the player is moving too fast, it is logged that "<player> moved too quickly! " followed by the change in x, y, and z, and the player is teleported back to their current (before this packet) server-side position.

Checking for block collisions is achieved like this:

  • A temporary collision-checked move of the player is attempted from its current position to the requested one.
  • The offset from the resulting position to the requested position is computed. If the absolute value of the offset on the y axis is less than 0.5, it (only the y component) is rounded down to 0.
  • If the magnitude of the offset is greater than 0.25 and the player isn't in creative or spectator mode, it is logged that "<player> moved wrongly!", and the player is teleported back to their current (before this packet) server-side position.
  • In addition, if the player's hitbox stationary at the requested position would intersect with a block, and they aren't in spectator mode, they are teleported back without a log message.

Checking for illegal flight is achieved like this:

  • When a movement packet is received, a flag indicating whether or not the player is floating mid-air is updated. The flag is set if the move test described above detected no collision below the player and the y component of the offset from the player's current position to the requested one is greater than -0.5, unless any of various conditions permitting flight (creative mode, elytra, levitation effect, etc., but not jumping) are met.
  • Each server tick, it is checked if the flag has been set for more than 80 consecutive ticks. If so, and the player isn't currently sleeping, dead or riding a vehicle, they are kicked for multiplayer.disconnect.flying.

Set Player Rotation

The unit circle for yaw
The unit circle of yaw, redrawn

Updates the direction the player is looking in.

Yaw is measured in degrees, and does not follow classical trigonometry rules. The unit circle of yaw on the XZ-plane starts at (0, 1) and turns counterclockwise, with 90 at (-1, 0), 180 at (0,-1) and 270 at (1, 0). Additionally, yaw is not clamped to between 0 and 360 degrees; any number is valid, including negative numbers and numbers greater than 360.

Pitch is measured in degrees, where 0 is looking straight ahead, -90 is looking straight up, and 90 is looking straight down.

The yaw and pitch of player (in degrees), standing at point (x0, y0, z0) and looking towards point (x, y, z) can be calculated with:

dx = x-x0
dy = y-y0
dz = z-z0
r = sqrt( dx*dx + dy*dy + dz*dz )
yaw = -atan2(dx,dz)/PI*180
if yaw < 0 then
    yaw = 360 + yaw
pitch = -arcsin(dy/r)/PI*180

You can get a unit vector from a given yaw/pitch via:

x = -cos(pitch) * sin(yaw)
y = -sin(pitch)
z =  cos(pitch) * cos(yaw)

Set Player On Ground Movement Flags

This packet as well as Set Player Position, Set Player Rotation, and Set Player Position and Rotation are called the “serverbound movement packets”. Vanilla clients will send Move Player Position once every 20 ticks even for a stationary player.

This packet is used to indicate whether the player is on ground (walking/swimming), or airborne (jumping/falling).

When dropping from sufficient height, fall damage is applied when this state goes from false to true. The amount of damage applied is based on the point where it last changed from true to false. Note that there are several movement related packets containing this state.

Play Server Hand VarInt Enum The hand from which the block is placed; 0: main hand, 1: off hand.
Location Position Block position.
Face VarInt Enum The face on which the block is placed (as documented at Player Action).
Cursor Position X Float The position of the crosshair on the block, from 0 to 1 increasing from west to east.
Cursor Position Y Float The position of the crosshair on the block, from 0 to 1 increasing from bottom to top.
Cursor Position Z Float The position of the crosshair on the block, from 0 to 1 increasing from north to south.
Inside block Boolean True when the player's head is inside of a block.
World border hit Boolean Seems to always be false, even when interacting with blocks around or outside the world border, or while the player is outside the border.
Sequence VarInt Block change sequence number (see #Acknowledge Block Change).

Upon placing a block, this packet is sent once.

The Cursor Position X/Y/Z fields (also known as in-block coordinates) are calculated using raytracing. The unit corresponds to sixteen pixels in the default resource pack. For example, let's say a slab is being placed against the south face of a full block. The Cursor Position X will be higher if the player was pointing near the right (east) edge of the face, lower if pointing near the left. The Cursor Position Y will be used to determine whether it will appear as a bottom slab (values 0.0–0.5) or as a top slab (values 0.5-1.0). The Cursor Position Z should be 1.0 since the player was looking at the southernmost part of the block.

Inside block is true when a player's head (specifically eyes) are inside of a block's collision. In 1.13 and later versions, collision is rather complicated and individual blocks can have multiple collision boxes. For instance, a ring of vines has a non-colliding hole in the middle. This value is only true when the player is directly in the box. In practice, though, this value is only used by scaffolding to place in front of the player when sneaking inside of it (other blocks will place behind when you intersect with them -- try with glass for instance).
