KDocs: PacketLib KDocs

Type Safe generated Minecraft Protocol Packets in Kotlin. For current versions: 1.19.3(also 1.19.4). But some complex Packets are not implemented yet.

Serialization Implementations

There are no more default implementations for serialization in this library, so you have to write your own. But here are some old example implementations: https://gist.github.com/Newspicel/54184b844dee00a4f351e58de033e071

So you need to implement the MCProtocolSerializer interface and the MCProtocolDeserializer interface. Then just get your Packet over the MinecraftCodecs and serialize it.
