Class PacketBlocker

java.lang.Object

io.netty.channel.ChannelHandlerAdapter

io.netty.channel.ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter

org.geysermc.floodgate.addon.data.PacketBlocker

All Implemented Interfaces:

io.netty.channel.ChannelHandler, io.netty.channel.ChannelInboundHandler

public class PacketBlocker
extends io.netty.channel.ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter

In Floodgate the PacketBlocker is used to temporarily prevent packets from being decoded. A similar system is used to prevent packets from being handled while Floodgate is processing the login. The old system blocked the thread which was processing the Floodgate login, but that doesn't only block the packets for that specific user, it's shared between multiple users causing them to lag or sometimes timeout.
The reason why we prevent packets from being handled is because keeping the packet order is important. That is also the reason why we prevent packets from being decoded during that time. The 'login start' packet for example can only be decoded after the handshake packet has been handled, because the server can only successfully decode the packet after the handshake packet caused the server to switch to the login state.
