Protocol error in smpmap (IndexError: list index out of range)

[RedNicStone]

Hello,
I'm quite new to SpockBot (worked with CraftProtocol before) and experiencing an Issue.

I've first tried to start SpockBot in Python version 3.6 and got the following error:

  File "start.py", line 29, in <module>
    client.start('[serverAddr]', 25565)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/spockbot-0.2.0-py3.7.egg/spockbot/plugins/helpers/start.py", line 34, in start

IndexError: list index out of range

Here is the full log:

Be careful, it's very big (and full with junk). I suggest viewing with nano.

process.log

After that I tried starting it with Python 3.7, and after fixing this issue about async, the same error occurred.

In Python 2.7 a different issue occurred, but in case of this request it is not important.

I was using bat and cursedspock to, but its unlikely that they caused the error.
If someone wants more information on my setup, please contact me.

The server is on 1.8.9 and running ViaVersion + addons to support protocols up to MC version 1.13. If someone thinks it has to do with the server I will make an open test server to test if this is the case.

Thanks for your help

The smpmap.py decoder is known to be broken, even for the version we claim to support. SpockBot has been abandoned for a looooong time. I'm currently working on a rewrite but for right now you're better off working with Mineflayer.

[RedNicStone]

Oh, I didn't knew it was abandoned.
I would really like to help, but my Minecraft protocol skills are mediocre and the code is almost unreadable to me at some passages.
I'm going to try out Mineflayer as you said, but since I am totally new to JavaScript, this is gonna take a while.

Thanks for the help!
