Could you build this?
Partial Setting up a standard game plugin is easy, but manipulating low-level Minecraft network packets and chunk serialization without client desyncs or crashes requires specialized protocol expertise.
What it would actually take: The plugin is written in Java or Kotlin on PaperMC using packet manipulation libraries like ProtocolLib or PacketEvents injected into Netty pipelines. The hard part is dynamically capturing, caching, and reconstructing Minecraft's complex paletted chunk packet formats at high frequencies without causing memory leaks or server tick lag. This requires deep domain knowledge of Minecraft network protocol internals and Netty concurrency.
