The idea

The goal of the core is to be easy to use and understand, and this applies to:

• the core code
• how it works
• the settings of the core itself

Unlike cores of other games like Minecraft, where the core is the brain of the whole system, Odncore serves as an intermediary between clients. It simply:

• passes packets from client to client
• allows clients to process these packets

This makes the core not the most important part of the system, but rather a facilitator of communication between clients.

Introduction

In the docs/ folder you can find information such as:

• how the server's API works
• how does the server architecture work and why is this the case?
• what incoming and outgoing network packets exist and their description
• how to set up the config and what each setting is responsible for

Contributing

Odncore is open source. Anyone can contribute. In order for your changes to be accepted, they must:

• the code must be easy to read and understandable
• your changes must fit the basic idea of the architecture: simplicity
