`config` · `0x02` · **clientbound** (server → client)

Disconnects the client during configuration with a text component `reason`. The server closes the socket after sending it. The client shows the reason on the disconnect screen.

Sent by the server, read by the client. Listen for it with `client.on("Disconnect", (data) => …)` on the receiving side.

## Fields

| Field | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `reason` | NBT |  |

## Send it

```ts
await client.sendPacket("Disconnect", {
  reason: { text: "Configuration failed", color: "red" },
});
client.disconnect();
```

`reason` is an NBT text component shown on the disconnect screen. Send the packet before closing the socket so the client receives the message.

Field aliases listed under Notes are accepted as alternative keys when writing.
