Option experimentalTabCompleteFixForTabSize80 doesn't work

[andreasdc]

The experimentalTabCompleteFixForTabSize80 option doesn't work I guess?

[Andre601]

Do you actually use a fixed size tab list with size 80?

[andreasdc]

type: FIXED_SIZE
size: 80

[CodeCrafter47]

The option only works for clients on version 1.19.2 or older.

[andreasdc]

Is workaround possible?

[andreasdc]

Maybe something like custom, secret or near empty names?

[andreasdc]

bump

[Andre601]

Bumping won't make it be solved any faster. Be patient

[CodeCrafter47]

The experimentalTabCompleteFixForTabSize80 option no longer works for the latest Minecraft versions. This is due to changes on the client and there is nothing I can do to fix it.

The experimentalTabCompleteSmileys option should still work, though.

[andreasdc]

What did change exactly?

[Andre601]

This is me guessing but since 1.19.3 are players no longer required to be in the tab list to have their skin displayed in the server, so this is probably the cause, as the Client no longer needs to get the Player tab info for seeing the other players on the server. So maybe some relevant code that made the experimental option work has been removed or changed.

[andreasdc]

Isn't it better to keep the fix?

[CodeCrafter47]

The previous fix relied on the minecraft client using a specific datastructure to store the tab list entries. We used the empty string as name (which doesn't show up in tab completion) and tweaked the entries, such that the hash function would ensure the correct order.
I don't remember the details, but I looked at it when the 1.19.3 update has been published, and a similar fix is no longer possible.

[andreasdc]

I don't understand this, can you take a look into it by any chance?

[Andre601]

He just told you that he can't fix it...

[andreasdc]

no
