Expand description
The dispatch module contains functions that will change the state of the active Connection.
Each function in dispatch corresponds not to a specific packet, but to a whole state.
Each state has different packets, and a packet can be named the name but have different intent
based on state.
§Example of state switch
(Initial state: ‘Handshake’) We receive a Handshake packet, ID=0x00 with next_state(VarInt Enum) set to: 1: we switch the connection state to ‘Status’. 2: we switch the connection state to ‘Login’. 3: we switch the connection state to ‘Transfer’.
