Keep Alive (serverbound)

Configuration 0x04, client → server.

config · 0x04 · serverbound (client → server)

Response to a clientbound KeepAlive during configuration. keepAliveId must match the id the server sent. The server disconnects the client if no matching reply arrives within the timeout.

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

// Client side, echo the server's KeepAlive id.

  await client.sendPacket("KeepAlive", {

  });
});

Echo the parsed id exactly and promptly. keepAliveId is a signed 64-bit value; id is also accepted as a write alias.
