Missing Server→Client Packet Handlers (PR #1091)

Date: March 26, 2026
Author: dreaminglucid
Files Changed: 1 file, 81 additions, 0 deletions

Problem

The server was sending packets via event-bridge that the client had no handler for, causing “No handler for packet” console errors. These packets were being queued but never processed, leading to UI systems missing important events like skill completion notifications and combat state changes.

Solution

Added 8 missing handler methods in ClientNetwork that forward packet data to the client world event bus so UI systems can react to these events.

Missing Handlers Added

onFletchingComplete - Fletching batch finished notification
onCookingComplete - Cooking result with burn check
onSmeltingComplete - Smelting batch finished notification
onSmithingComplete - Smithing batch finished notification
onCraftingComplete - Crafting batch finished notification
onTanningComplete - Tanning batch finished notification
onCombatEnded - Combat session ended notification
onQuestStarted - Quest begun notification

Implementation Pattern

Each handler follows the same pattern: receive packet data, add local player ID, and emit to world event bus.

// Example: Cooking completion handler
onCookingComplete = (data: {
  rawItemId: string;
  resultItemId: string;
  wasBurnt: boolean;
  xpGained: number;
}) => {
  this.world.emit(EventType.COOKING_COMPLETE, {
    playerId: this.world?.entities?.player?.id || "",
    ...data,
  });
};

// Example: Smelting completion handler
onSmeltingComplete = (data: {
  barItemId: string;
  totalSmelted: number;
  totalFailed: number;
  totalXp: number;
}) => {
  this.world.emit(EventType.SMELTING_COMPLETE, {
    playerId: this.world?.entities?.player?.id || "",
    ...data,
  });
};

// Example: Combat ended handler
onCombatEnded = (data: { attackerId: string; targetId: string }) => {
  this.world.emit(EventType.COMBAT_ENDED, data);
};

// Example: Quest started handler
onQuestStarted = (data: { questId: string; questName: string }) => {
  const playerId = this.world?.entities?.player?.id || "";
  this.world.emit(EventType.QUEST_STARTED, { ...data, playerId });
};

Impact

Eliminates Console Errors: No more “No handler for packet” warnings in browser console
UI Reactivity: UI systems can now properly react to skill completion events
Quest Notifications: Quest start notifications work correctly
Combat State: Combat end events properly trigger UI updates
Event Bus Integration: All handlers forward to world event bus for consistent event handling

Problem

Prayer state wasn’t properly syncing when players logged in, causing prayer points and active prayers to be out of sync with server state. This led to visual inconsistencies where the UI showed incorrect prayer point values or active prayer states.

Solution

Improved prayer state initialization and synchronization flow to ensure prayer data is correctly loaded from the database and sent to the client on login.

Impact

Correct Prayer Points: Prayer points display correctly on login
Active Prayer Sync: Active prayers sync properly between sessions
State Consistency: Eliminates prayer state desync issues
Better UX: Players see consistent prayer state across sessions
