Steps 1, 2, 3, 9, 10 of [0] (they didn't mention encryption or compression, I'm assuming they didn't implement it.) They didn't mention anything about any of the steps past 10 - again, assuming they didn't implement them. It's a trivial thing they've implemented - good work, sure, but a Minecraft server? Absolutely not. [0] https://minecraft.wiki/w/Java_Edition_protocol/FAQ#What's_the_normal_login_sequence_for_a_client https://minecraft.wiki/w/Java_Edition_protocol/FAQ#What's_th...?
