- Implement `encoded_len` for packet enums.
- Fix bug in `has_next_packet` causing a later `unwrap` to panic.
- Add robust `encoded_len` check in `PacketEncoder` for debug builds.
- Split packet inspector regex into separate "inclusive" and "exclusive"
arguments because the `regex` crate does not support negative lookahead.
- Better `Debug` impls for `Ident` and `Compound`.
- Remove read/write timeouts from packet inspector.
Closes#84
# Changes
- Implemented new algorithm for tracking loaded entities and chunks.
- The client does not need to maintain a list of loaded chunks and
entities anymore, as this information can be inferred using carefully
maintained data from the previous tick.
- Chunks are used as a spatial partition for entities. Entity visibility
is now based on chunk visibility rather than the euclidean distance to
clients.
- The BVH is no longer strictly necessary, so it has been moved to the
new `valence_spatial_index` crate.
- The API has been generalized to support things other than entities.
The crate does not have a dependency on the main `valence` crate.
- Chunk, entity, and player list packets are now aggressively cached to
increase performance.
- Chunk packets now include some filler light data. This makes the
vanilla client lag a lot less.
- Entities and chunks must now be marked as deleted before they are
removed.
- Improved `ChunkPos` interface.
- Added function to get the duration per tick.
- Added `Index` and `IndexMut` impls to collection types.
As a result of the above changes, performance under heavy load has
increased significantly. With the rust-mc-bot test on my machine, I went
from a max of ~1000 players to ~4000 players.
* Replace HashMap with BTreeMap in valence_nbt
Turns out that `BTreeMap`s are a bit faster when the element count is low.
This change also makes debugging compounds a bit easier since the elements are displayed in sorted order.
* Simplify read_list function slightly
