''Two-way''
+
<div style="float:right;">__TOC__</div>
  
Sent C->S when the user presses [tab] while writing text. The payload contains all text behind the cursor.
+
=== Data types ===
  
The server responds with an auto-completion of the last word sent to it. In the case of regular chat, this is a player username. Command names and parameters are also supported.
+
No changes documented so far.
  
In the event of more than one possible completion, the server responds with the options packed into the single string field, separated by a null character. Note that as strings are UTF-16, this is two bytes wide.
