⚡ Protocol Architecture

Because tooltips are rendered on the physical client but GameRules exist on the logical server, Durability Multiplier uses Fabric Networking API to push live snapshots of all 73 static GameRules plus dynamic modded item rules to clients.

    Note over Server,Client: Event 1: Player Joins World
    Server->>Net: ServerPlayConnectionEvents.JOIN
    Net->>Net: Snapshot 73 GameRules + Dynamic Maps
    Net->>Client: Send DurabilityPayload (sync_rules)
    Client->>State: DurabilityClientState.apply(payload)

    Note over Server,Client: Event 2: Admin Changes /gamerule
    Server->>Net: GameRules.set() [GameRulesMixin TAIL]
    Net->>Client: Broadcast DurabilityPayload to all players
    Client->>State: DurabilityClientState.apply(payload)
    Client->>UI: Tooltips update immediately without relog

📦 Payload Structure (76 Fields & Dynamic Maps)

DurabilityPayload serializes all GameRules and dynamic maps efficiently using FriendlyByteBuf VarInts, Booleans, and Map codecs:
