I'm working on erlconf, a configuration library allowing nested key value store and notifies processes of updates.

Building blocks with nonexistent block IDs results in all clients crashing when loading the respective chunk or block update.

On login nor when somebody else logs in our out nothing is sent for the online list.

Submitted this as first on purpose :) (it's nice to see who's online)

logging process unpredictably dies

the server already manages ticks, the player_logic processes just have to send them to the client

It's currently not possible to place any signs, they don't appear for other players and disappear when reconnecting.

Many blocks like stairs, levers, ladders, chests, etc. require the server to store their direction as metadata. The direction is usually derived from the direction the player looks.

Introduce Mnesia and use its tables instead of current ets.

ets has to be replaced in:

• mc_erl_entities: players
• mc_erl_entities: entities
• mc_erl_chunk_manager: chunks

things to do: add a function for adding an item to the player's inventory, enable item pickup

fully implemented inventory handling

done:

• saving the inventory on the server side
• player places a block
• move items (w/o shift)

todo:

• use shift while moving items

Strings with a length > 119, or with a character not accepted by vanilla Minecraft, will be passed along to each connected client in chat update (0x03) packets. This will crash any connected vanilla client when a malicious client sends a loaded string.

this blocks successful login after a connection crash

Usernames containing special characters like '§' or more than 119 characters are accepted resulting in colored join messages or all connected clients being kicked.

It is currently possible to dig blocks miles away from the player and to build blocks onto air.

This structure was built from the spawn point but is actually at 1000/1000.

currently trying to use rebar (for my struggles, see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10192671/rebar-generate-enotdir-errors)

see http://wiki.vg/Protocol_Encryption

The client doesn't get disconnected immediately, but any packets sent are just ignored by the server. Eventually the connection times out.

ideas: PostgreSQL, Riak

Entities that were static since the player has joined are not displayed.
