Should we also watch out for proxies like Velocity and maybe even Waterfall? Like their pages explain, velocity is probably the most-used proxy for networks today, and Waterfall is a bungeecord replacement for people who cant switch to Velocity. Velocity does need some special packets, but Its completly Vanilla-Client-Compatible. Only the Server needs to support it. Fabric/Quilt are compatible via a mod, and Paper and it's forks has native support.
Geyser has a standalone version which also supports Floodgate. Assuming that's compatible with a vanilla server, there shouldn't be any extra work needed to support it.
I figured, yeah, but geyser still seems to have some issues with Obsidian. as for bungeecord/velocity, it may be nice to support them at some point
This is somewhat of a stretch goal but I would very much love to see this make it into Obsidian. Geyser is a proxy for java edition Minecraft servers that allows bedrock edition servers to connect to it. To support online mode with bedrock players mixed in, we'd have to implement whatever changes the floodgate plugin implements to support it.
Small issue: as of right now I have not found any documentation on how floodgate works. We'd have to find that first (or, just ask them)
