lan-extender-fabric's Issues

Instability after changing the authtoken mid-game

Issue description

1. Publish the world
2. Change authtoken
3. Game crashes when you leave the world, ngrok process is not killed

LAN Extender version

0.2.0

Minecraft version

1.19.2

What other mods do you have installed?

Fabric API, Mod Menu, Cloth Config

Operating system

macOS

Priority this issue should have

High, immediate attention needed (e.g. game crash, mod not working)

Are all of the following true?

• I have followed the setup guide for the mod.
• LAN Extender is configured with my Ngrok Authtoken.

Backports to previous versions

Explain the feature

Some people might want to play on previous versions of Minecraft.

Ideal solution or implementation

Backporting to at least 1.18 would probably be for the best.

[Optional] Alternative solutions or implementations

No response

[Optional] Other context

• 1.18
• 1.17 (?)
• 1.16 (?, Not worth doing anything before this)

Clipboard configuration

Explain the feature

It's not always desirable to have the server address copied to your clipboard, esp. if you want something else copied.

Ideal solution or implementation

It should be configurable in the mod's settings.

[Optional] Alternative solutions or implementations

[Optional] Other context

No response

Forge version

Explain the feature

Forge is really popular (probably more so than fabric) which means LAN Extender will be compatible with less modded games

Ideal solution or implementation

This could be fixed by adding an FML version of the mod!

[Optional] Alternative solutions or implementations

No response

[Optional] Other context

There's a mod template @ https://files.minecraftforge.net/net/minecraftforge/forge/

1.19 support

Explain the feature

Some people might not like using the mod on 1.19.2 because of its chat reporting.

Ideal solution or implementation

This could be fixed by adding support for Minecraft 1.19. This would mainly mean updating the name of the jar-file and allowing previous versions of dependencies like Cloth Config API.

[Optional] Alternative solutions or implementations

No response

[Optional] Other context

No response

Does this work with mods (if all players have the same)?

Add formatting to LAN Extender

Explain the feature

It can be easy to miss the server address or misinterpret what's being sent in the chat unless you take time to read it.

Ideal solution or implementation

Adding formatting to chat text would add a visual indicator of what's happening.

[Optional] Alternative solutions or implementations

Setup screen when starting game without authtoken configured

Explain the feature

A lot of people install mods through the CurseForge app or just download the jar without doing much reading. This could make it easy to miss the setup guide in the README.md.

Ideal solution or implementation

This could be fixed by adding a screen that appears when you startup Minecraft without an ngrok authtoken configured. It wouldn't have to be the entire guide, just a link to the README or CurseForge page.

LAN Extender version

All

Minecraft version

1.19.3

What other mods do you have installed?

N/A

Operating system

All

Priority this issue should have

High, immediate attention needed (e.g. game crash, mod not working)

Are all of the following true?

Checkbox isn't perfectly centered

Issue description

As you can see in the picture above, the Open to LAN checkbox isn't centered.

LAN Extender version

0.2.0

Minecraft version

1.19.2

What other mods do you have installed?

Fabric API, Cloth Config, Mod Menu

Operating system

macOS 12.5.1

Priority this issue should have

Low, slightly annoying (e.g. typo, confusing text)

Are all of the following true?

• I have followed the setup guide for the mod.
• LAN Extender is configured with my Ngrok Authtoken.

Rework config system

Right now the config file is simply a text file containing the token. If LAN Extender adds more features in the future, this would be a pain to upscale. It should be converted to a file containing JSON or TOML data.

Rework ngrok logic

Explain the feature

The logic for starting & stopping ngrok tunnels is pretty scuffed and probably not maintainable.

Ideal solution or implementation

It should probably be moved into its own class.

1.20.6 Support

Explain the feature

Would be nice to have a 1.20.6 version, so people can play on LAN servers.

Ideal solution or implementation

To update to 1.20.6

[Optional] Alternative solutions or implementations

+even better if it works with Vulkan Mod

[Optional] Other context

No response

Copy address to clipboard on publish

Explain the feature

It's hard to share the server address with others because it's moderately long.

Ideal solution or implementation

This could be fixed by copying the address to the clipboard so you can send it to people easily.

[Optional] Alternative solutions or implementations

No response

[Optional] Other context

No response

Add moderation slash commands

Explain the feature

LAN is missing moderation slash commands which are very useful for medium size servers.

Add /ban, /kick, and /whitelist.
