Chunk Data and Update Light

Main article: Chunk Format

See also: #Unload Chunk

	The following information needs to be added to this page:
	How do biomes work now? The biome change happened at the same time as the seed change, but it's not clear how/if biomes could be computed given that it's not the actual seed... (/r/mojira discussion which notes that it seems to be some kind of interpolation)

This packet sends all block entities in the chunk (though sending them is not required; it is still legal to send them with Block Entity Data later). The light data in this packet is the same format as in the Update Light packet.

Packet ID	State	Bound To	Field Name		Field Type		Notes
0x24	Play	Client	Chunk X		Int		Chunk coordinate (block coordinate divided by 16, rounded down)
			Chunk Z		Int		Chunk coordinate (block coordinate divided by 16, rounded down)
			Heightmaps		NBT		Compound containing one long array named MOTION_BLOCKING, which is a heightmap for the highest solid block at each position in the chunk (as a compacted long array with 256 entries, with the number of bits per entry varying depending on the world's height, defined by the formula ceil(log2(height + 1))). The Notchian server also adds a WORLD_SURFACE long array, the purpose of which is unknown, but it's not required for the chunk to be accepted.
			Size		VarInt		Size of Data in bytes
			Data		Byte array		See data structure in Chunk Format
			Number of block entities		VarInt		Number of elements in the following array
			Block Entity	Packed XZ	Array	Byte	The packed section coordinates, calculated from ((blockX & 15) << 4) | (blockZ & 15)
				Y		Short	The height relative to the world
				Type		VarInt	The type of block entity
				Data		NBT	The block entity's data, without the X, Y, and Z values
			Trust Edges		Boolean		If edges should be trusted for light updates.
			Sky Light Mask		BitSet		BitSet containing bits for each section in the world + 2. Each set bit indicates that the corresponding 16×16×16 chunk section has data in the Sky Light array below. The least significant bit is for blocks 16 blocks to 1 block below the min world height (one section below the world), while the most significant bit covers blocks 1 to 16 blocks above the max world height (one section above the world).
			Block Light Mask		BitSet		BitSet containing bits for each section in the world + 2. Each set bit indicates that the corresponding 16×16×16 chunk section has data in the Block Light array below. The order of bits is the same as in Sky Light Mask.
			Empty Sky Light Mask		BitSet		BitSet containing bits for each section in the world + 2. Each set bit indicates that the corresponding 16×16×16 chunk section has all zeros for its Sky Light data. The order of bits is the same as in Sky Light Mask.
			Empty Block Light Mask		BitSet		BitSet containing bits for each section in the world + 2. Each set bit indicates that the corresponding 16×16×16 chunk section has all zeros for its Block Light data. The order of bits is the same as in Sky Light Mask.
			Sky Light array count		VarInt		Number of entries in the following array; should match the number of bits set in Sky Light Mask
			Sky Light arrays	Length	Array	VarInt	Length of the following array in bytes (always 2048)
				Sky Light array		Array of 2048 bytes	There is 1 array for each bit set to true in the sky light mask, starting with the lowest value. Half a byte per light value. Indexed ((y<<8) | (z<<4) | x) / 2 If there's a remainder, masked 0xF0 else 0x0F.
			Block Light array count		VarInt		Number of entries in the following array; should match the number of bits set in Block Light Mask
			Block Light arrays	Length	Array	VarInt	Length of the following array in bytes (always 2048)
				Block Light array		Array of 2048 bytes	There is 1 array for each bit set to true in the block light mask, starting with the lowest value. Half a byte per light value. Indexed ((y<<8) | (z<<4) | x) / 2 If there's a remainder, masked 0xF0 else 0x0F.

Note that the Notchian client requires an Set Center Chunk packet when it crosses a chunk border, otherwise it'll only display render distance + 2 chunks around the chunk it spawned in.

The compacted array format has been adjusted so that individual entries no longer span across multiple longs, affecting the main data array and heightmaps.

New format, 5 bits per block, containing the following references to blocks in a palette (not shown): 122344566480743131516914101202

Open Sign Editor

Sent when the client has placed a sign and is allowed to send Update Sign. There must already be a sign at the given location (which the client does not do automatically) - send a Block Update first.

Packet ID	State	Bound To	Field Name	Field Type	Notes
0x31	Play	Client	Location	Position
			Is Front Text	Boolean	Whether the opened editor is for the front or on the back of the sign

Respawn

To change the player's dimension (overworld/nether/end), send them a respawn packet with the appropriate dimension, followed by prechunks/chunks for the new dimension, and finally a position and look packet. You do not need to unload chunks, the client will do it automatically.

Packet ID	State	Bound To	Field Name	Field Type	Notes
0x41	Play	Client	Dimension Type	Identifier	Valid dimensions are defined per dimension registry sent in Login (play)
			Dimension Name	Identifier	Name of the dimension being spawned into.
			Hashed seed	Long	First 8 bytes of the SHA-256 hash of the world's seed. Used client side for biome noise
			Gamemode	Unsigned Byte	0: Survival, 1: Creative, 2: Adventure, 3: Spectator.
			Previous Gamemode	Byte	-1: Undefined (null), 0: Survival, 1: Creative, 2: Adventure, 3: Spectator. The previous gamemode. Vanilla client uses this for the debug (F3 + N & F3 + F4) gamemode switch. (More information needed)
			Is Debug	Boolean	True if the world is a debug mode world; debug mode worlds cannot be modified and have predefined blocks.
			Is Flat	Boolean	True if the world is a superflat world; flat worlds have different void fog and a horizon at y=0 instead of y=63.
			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.
			Has death location	Boolean	If true, then the next two fields are present.
			Death dimension Name	Optional Identifier	Name of the dimension the player died in.
			Death location	Optional Position	The location that the player died at.
			Portal cooldown	VarInt	The number of ticks until the player can use the portal againWhat impact does this have on the client? Needs more info.

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.

Update Section Blocks

Fired whenever 2 or more blocks are changed within the same chunk on the same tick.

Changing blocks in chunks not loaded by the client is unsafe (see note on Block Update).

Packet ID	State	Bound To	Field Name	Field Type	Notes
0x43	Play	Client	Chunk section position	Long	Chunk section coordinate (encoded chunk x and z with each 22 bits, and section y with 20 bits, from left to right).
			Suppress Light Updates	Boolean	Whether to ignore light updates caused by the contained changes. Always inverse the preceding Update Light packet's "Trust Edges" bool
			Blocks array size	VarInt	Number of elements in the following array.
			Blocks	Array of VarLong	Each entry is composed of the block state id, shifted left by 12, and the relative block position in the chunk section (4 bits for x, z, and y, from left to right).

Chunk section position is encoded:

((sectionX & 0x3FFFFF) << 42) | (sectionY & 0xFFFFF) | ((sectionZ & 0x3FFFFF) << 20);

and decoded:

sectionX = long >> 42;
sectionY = long << 44 >> 44;
sectionZ = long << 22 >> 42;

Blocks are encoded:

blockStateId << 12 | (blockLocalX << 8 | blockLocalZ << 4 | blockLocalY)
//Uses the local position of the given block position relative to its respective chunk section
