I learned coding on private MMO emulators (lineage 2 primarily). I had my own private server I was building in my spare time, implementing all the needed server features for the client one by one. Packet sniffing to know what any of the messages even meant. I was in the middle of that when I was approached by my business partner to do my first startup, and I haven't touched it since (2014).

It'd be a whole lot easier to get that done (and adapted to another client) now if I pulled that code back out.

Edit: After playing for a few min, not too bad! One thing I did notice, is the netcode/movement feels a little bit janky. I had jitter and ghosting on other players and NPCs.

Cool project!
