26.3 moved a sign item's text into sign_text_front, sign_text_back and
waxed; 26.2 keeps it in the block entity tag. On the way to a 26.2 client
the three now fold into block_entity_data as SignText's tag (messages as
{text} compounds, filtered_messages, color, has_glowing_text, is_waxed):
into the stack's own block_entity_data, or one naming sign or hanging_sign
from the item. A creative client that sends the stack back hands the text
in with it.

tachyne-common
tachyne is an unofficial fan project, not affiliated with Mojang, Microsoft, or Minecraft's developer/publisher in any way. See the Disclaimer at the bottom.
Project status
Work in progress. tachyne is young and moving fast: a full survival game runs today, but expect rough edges, missing vanilla features, and breaking changes between updates. Bug reports are genuinely useful — please open a GitHub Issue with your client version/edition and what you saw. Contributions are welcome too: see CONTRIBUTING.md.
Just want to run a server? The quickstart repo brings up the whole stack in one command — Docker Compose or Kubernetes, classic infinite survival by default, real-Cape-Town earth mode as a variant.
What's implemented? Gameplay features live in the world engine, not the gateways — see tachyne-world's feature matrix for what to expect (implemented / partial / missing) as a player.
Shared pure-Go module for the tachyne Minecraft cluster. This module is where
the Minecraft wire format lives — the world engine (tachyne-world) has no
wire code at all ("worlds are versionless"); gateways compose these packages
to terminate real clients.
Packages
-
attach/— the domain attach protocol between gateways and world pods: the engine's ONLY external interface. Framingu32be len | u8 type | payload; JSON payloads except Chunk (JSON header + zlib binary of raw block-state/light arrays) and Ping/Pong. The frame catalog is typed end to end: core session frames 0x01–0x09 (Hello/Welcome/Want/Chunk/Move/Time/ Ping/Pong/Bye), clientbound domain events (entities 0x0a–0x10, dig/place/ held/blockset 0x11–0x14, dimension/teleport/command 0x15–0x17, bossbar 0x1a, survival 0x1b–0x1f, items/windows 0x20–0x27, sound/particles/worldfx 0x28–0x2a, misc 0x2b–0x33, entity-status/swing 0x40/0x41), and serverbound typed actions 0x34–0x3f.entities.go(consts + struct docs) is the protocol reference — keep it current when adding frames. Events carry ABSOLUTE positions; per-viewer delta math is the renderer's job. Codec rules that bit us once: one json tag PER field, no custom marshalers on embedded structs (a promoted MarshalJSON silently droppedon_ground). -
render770/— the shared canonical-770 (Minecraft 1.21.5) renderer + serverbound parsers for the attach events.EntityViewis the per-viewer entity tracker: relative i16-delta moves against what THIS viewer actually rendered, absolute resync on first sight / ≥7.5-block jumps / every 40th move,NoSyncfor entities that must never getsync_entity_position(the 776 dragon constraint). Family renderers: presence (sanitizing chat NBT, boss bars, time), survival (health/XP/effects/hurt/death), items (ItemStack with opaque canonical components, equipment, windows, entity metadata), effects (inline-by-name sounds, particles, world FX, block set), misc (game events, abilities, passengers, vehicles, velocity, trades, difficulty, command tree, respawn).parse.goholds theSID*serverbound packet-id consts +Parse*decoders gateways use to lift 770 serverbound packets into typed action frames. Tests are byte oracles: the engine's deleted packet builders were copied in verbatim as expected-output generators — a renderer change that shifts bytes fails loudly. Add an oracle (or strict re-parser) test with every new renderer. -
protocol/— the 770 wire/encoding substrate: VarInt/String, packet framing (plain + zlib-compressed), network NBT writer, paletted containers, positions, generated registries/damage-types/items tables, config-phase composition shared by all gateways (ConfigRegistryPackets(proto),UpdateTagsPacket(proto)— full 1.21.5 AND 26.x tag data —BrandPayload(),FeatureFlags()), and the chained multi-version translation layer (Translator,TranslatorFor(proto),translate_chain.go, generated protomaps incl. 26.x): gateways above 770 render canonical bytes then translate at the client boundary. Generators for the*_gen.gofiles live intachyne-world'sscripts/and write here. -
access/— client for the tachyne-access policy service: fail-closed login verdicts (Check), 30 s verdict cache. -
proxyproto/— PROXY protocol v1 reader (ingress → gateway real client IPs). -
gwsession/— the entire shared Java gateway: the front door (listener, handshake, status ping, version gate, tachyne-access check) and the session pipeline (login → configuration → play bridge, including the silent backend swap when a player crosses a shard seam). Both Java gateway repos are amain.goover this: version pinning plus environment wiring, so a gateway bug is fixed HERE, once. -
shard/+handover/— the multi-pod pieces: shard topology/ownership and the serialized player state that crosses a seam.
Consumers & workflow
Consumers: tachyne-world (the engine — attach frames, render770 types,
shard and handover), tachyne-gw-java-770 and tachyne-gw-java-776 (both
build their gateway from gwsession, which composes render770 and translates
per connection), tachyne-gw-bedrock (Bedrock render), tachyne-ingress
(protocol). The module is public — go get github.com/tachyne/tachyne-common@<sha> resolves through the Go proxy with
no credentials.
Change protocol here → pin the new sha in every consumer
(GOFLAGS=-mod=mod go get github.com/tachyne/tachyne-common@<sha>), go test -race each,
deploy world before gateways. New client-visible features enter as: typed
attach frame here → renderer/parser in render770/ (with oracle test) →
engine emission → gateway wiring.

Development transparency
tachyne is built by its maintainer working with an AI coding agent (Anthropic's Claude): substantial portions of the implementation were written by the model under human direction, and every change is reviewed, tested and deployed by the maintainer. The project's engineering discipline is designed for exactly this workflow — byte-oracle tests pin the wire format, full test suites gate every image build, and real-client verification signs off gameplay. Disclosed here for transparency; judge the code on its behavior.
