Key classes:

Class name	Structure	Scope	Content
NetworkManager	Singleton	All networks	Module management
Protocol	Abstract modular	All clients for that protocol	A protocol type
Client	Abstract Instantiated by Protocol	Per client	Protocol conversion
SharedServerSocket	Abstract Inflexible implementations	All clients through that server socket	Internet-level protocol
SessionHandler	Abstract Instantiated by SharedServerSocket	Per client	Internet-level protocol
Player (not part of this package)	Instance	One server-side player from one or multiple clients	Game-level mechanism

Login procedure

1. Data enter through one of the SharedServerSockets
   • UDP: Read into UdpBufferThread, then received by SharedUdpServerSocket through ticking
   • TCP: To be implemented
2. NetworkManager.adoptSession(org.projectnyx.network.ext.SessionHandler) is called per packet read to look for a suitable protocol. If no protocol is available, login packets are stacked. If a protocol accepted this client, a protocol-dependent Client object is created by the protocol.
3. Subsequent packets are handled by the client directly.
4. When enough data have been created, a Player object is created or assigned to act as the in-game entity controlled by this client (and other clients).
