ConstaNetMultiPart is the packet type used to transport large payloads split across multiple chunks.
All chunks that belong to the same logical message share a common multipart identifier and are reassembled by the receiver.

Member Variables

multi_part_id

DataType: String
Default: ""
Identifier for this multipart message.
All chunks belonging to the same logical payload use the same multi_part_id.

num_of_chunks

DataType: int
Default: 0
Total number of chunks that make up this multipart message.
Receivers can use this to determine when they have received the complete set of chunks.

chunk_id

DataType: int
Default: 0
Identifier for this specific chunk within the multipart sequence.

data

DataType: PackedByteArray
Default: []
Raw binary data for this chunk.
Used together with multi_part_id, num_of_chunks, and chunk_id to reconstruct the complete payload on the receiving side.

Packet Structure

Offsets below refer to the payload portion (after the base header defined in ConstaNetHeadder).
See DataTypes.

Where:

• Multipart ID is a 36-byte ASCII identifier, encoded in the same format as NodeID.
• Data byte length is a 4-byte little-endian integer specifying the size of the following chunk data.
• Chunk data contains the raw bytes for this portion of the multipart message.
