General

• Sizes and offsets are in bytes
• All offsets are from the start of the packet's data
• Word size = 2 bytes
• DWord size = 4 bytes
• Everything is LSB on the wire

Message header

Offset	Size	Value
00	Byte	1 for frontend messages, 2 for ingame (compression ?)
01	Byte	(??)
02	Word	Message size (max is 0x1414, if larger, the header(s) is(are) sent again)
04	Word	Command

Length: 6

Chat Message

Command:	0x0000
Direction:	Both
Size:	Variable

Just a String, 00 Terminated.

Type:FromNick:ToNick:Text

Differents Types

Normal Message : GLB

Private Message : PRV

System Message : SYS

Notes :

- ToNick is often set to "ALL" to be sent to everyone (doesn't work for whispers)

- When X types /me Text, it sends this : SYS:X:ALL:X Text

- For systems messages, FromNick can be null, since it's not shown

Join

Joining consists of several steps:

Step 1

Command:	0x0004
Direction:	From client
Size:	128

• Nick at 06, null terminated, ends (last place the null could be) at 22.
• Gameid (ascii) at 23, null string for IP games.
• Version at 64, composed of 30 24 F4 (hex)

NB : these 3 parameters are sufficient to enter a game. Everything else can be 0 and it's ok. Figure out what follows.

Step 2

Command:	0x0008
Direction:	To client
Size:	6

Acknowledgement. Empty message. Figure out error messages. (different commands?)

Step 3

Command:	0x0005
Direction:	From client
Size:	114

• Nick at 06, null terminated.
• Flag (+1) at 72 (if 13 is France, then to put French flag, you have to put 13+1 = 0x0E)

Figure out what follows.

Step 4

Server sends:

• Player list, see below.
• Team list (when not empty), see below.
• Map data, see below. (Map is not sent when we rejoin?)
• A message with command 0x001f? What is it?

Figure out how the scheme is sent here when it's not the default Intermediate

Player list

Command:	0x000b
Direction:	To client
Size:	1176

This looks like it's sending a raw array of player structures. Each player structure is 120 bytes in size.

Names are limited to 17 characters, and are padded with 0 bytes. (If a name is exactly 17 characters, there will NOT be a null-terminator) Figure out what the rest is.

Considering there can be 7 players, the total length should be 840 bytes. Array starts at 06, 08 or 0b?

Depending, that leaves 330, 328 or 324 trailing bytes. Figure out what follows (or what is before the array).

Team list

Command:	0x000c
Direction:	To client
Size:	??

TODO

Custom Scheme data

Command:	0x000d (13dec)
Direction:	To client
Size:	308

I saw two messages for a single scheme change? Word at 06 is 0x0000 for the first, 0x0007 for the second. Otherwise identical.

DWord at 08 is always 0xffffffff? Byte at 0xd always 0x00?

(Atleast for version 1 scheme:) Scheme starts at 0e. No SCHM header. No version number? 79 bytes after, probably 76 extra for scheme version 2. Remaining 3 are 0x0046ec?

//edit by Robi//

Updating the Scheme :

53 63 FF FF FF FF 00 [ .WSC file starting at offset 5 ] FF FF FF

Still not sure about the weird FFs and 5363 ... any help ?

The size seems to be always 308, so it is always v2 Scheme, if you put a v1 scheme, it is convertised to v2 (padded with 0's) That's why the version isn't in the packet.

The packet is sent twice because we often double click to set a scheme, where one click is enough to send the scheme once.

//end of edit//

Default Scheme data

Command:	0x001f (31dec)
Direction:	To client
Size:	12

Offset	Size	Value
00	Word	(??)
02	DWord	An identifier for the scheme.

Identifier	Scheme
1	Beginner
2	Intermediate
3	Pro
6	Artillery
7	Classic
8	Armageddon
9	The Darkside
11	Retro
13	Strategic
14	Sudden Sinking
15	Tournament
16	Blast Zone
17	The Full Wormage

If you put 0 as Scheme Identifier, it will crash the game. Any other number that doesn't appear in the list will put Intermediate.

Changing Scheme data

Command:	Depends
Direction:	To client
Size:	12

Offset	Size	Value
00	Word	Always 0x3E (62dec) ?
02	DWord	Value

Command	Description
0x11 (17dec)	Round Time (Positive = Minutes, Negative = Seconds)
0x12 (18dec)	Turn Time (FFFFFFFF = Infinite)
0x13 (19dec)	Victories needed
0x14 (20dec)	Worm Selection (0 = Disabled ; 1 = Enabled)
0x15 (21dec)	Worms HP
0x1D (29dec)	Worm Placment (0 = Disabled ; 1 = Enabled)

Ready signal

Command:	0x000f
Direction:	Both ways
Size:	16

Word at 06 always 0x736e?

DWord at 08 is on/off? DWord at 0b is player number?

Starting Game

Command:	0x001c
Direction:	To client
Size:	20

Assembly that constructs this packet : File:Http://img521.imageshack.us/img521/3048/reverse01zd7.png

Offset	Size	Value
06	Word	Unknown for instance
08	DWord	HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Team17SoftwareLTD\WormsArmageddon\Data\LogicSeed
0C	DWord	"GSAW"
10	DWord	Version of the Game (4C for the normal 3.6.28.0)

Map

Command:	0x002b
Direction:	To client
Size:	64

Offset	Size	Value
06	Byte	(??)
07	Byte	Always 01 ?
08	DWord	File Lenght
0C	DWord	Data Offset
10	DWord	Data Lenght
14	Data Lenght	Data

Note : A DWord is put at the beginning of the File to tell what type of Map is sent.

1 = .BIT Monochrome map (.bit, .lev)

2 = .LEV Monochrome map (.bit, .lev)

3 = .PNG Colour map

Exemple of a multi-packeted BIT-file (135434(0x34DE)bytes file):

<01 48 1414 2B00> <A2 01 [E2 34 00 00] [00 00 00 00] [00 14 00 00]> [ 01 00 00 00 { .BIT file DATA } ]

<01 48 1414 2B00> <A2 01 [E2 34 00 00] [00 14 00 00] [00 14 00 00]> [ { .BIT file DATA } ]

<01 9C F60C 2B00> <A5 01 [E2 34 00 00] [00 28 00 00] [E2 0C 00 00]> [ { .BIT file DATA } ]
