Message format

lways bytes!
Packet id followed by arguments
Some packets don't have arguments so send just the packet id
There can be multiple packets in one message, those with unknown amount of arguments have to be terminated
All number types are signed

Authentication

Unsurprisingly, tokens are used to authenticate.

The first message from the server is:

0x6d 0x73

The client replies with a single message:

0xb6 0xc4
client version (byte), currently it's 0 and won't change until everything is complete
length of access key (byte)
token (bytes), decoded from base64

Authentication complete.
If something's wrong the server disconnects, see below for reason codes.
Otherwise the client receives a pong.
No commands are handled during this time

Commands

Server bound (Client -> Server)

Code	Name	Data	Notes
`0x00`	Ping		the server replies with pong must be sent by client every at most 30 seconds, otherwise the server disconnects
`0x01`	Settings	1. byte: setting id 2. value 3. and so on (terminated by 0xFF)	see below for IDs, value type varies

Client bound (Server -> Client)

Code	Name	Data	Notes
`0x00`	Pong	1. long: unix millis	A response to ping, also sent by server on successful authentication

Disconnect reasons

Alongside code, there's always a human-readable message which contains more specific information

Code	Name	Notes
`3000`	reserved
`3001`	unauthorized	used during authentication phase
`3002`	version mismatch	incompatible client
`3003`	timeout	client wasn't sending pings
`3004`	access key revoked	when the access key was revoked while connected
`3005`	server error

Settings

Code	Name	Notes
`0x00`	reserved
`0xFF`	terminator	not a setting, just used to terminate sequences
