[1.7.10] How to write and read a String Array to ByteBuf?

[HappyKiller1O1]

Hey! So, I need to basically write a given string array (just the player list) to ByteBuf while sending a packet. But honestly, I have no clue how to. Any suggestions?

you could use String builder to make one long string and send it, or you could use packets instead of strings.

Now see, I would do that but, I am using a String array to store about ten or twenty messages to be sent to the server.

Option one: use nbt, and send it...

Option two: write to bytebuf int of lenght of array, then write one by one string. To read, read integer, and then read string times integer...

Actually I did it by running a for loop through the String[] length and saving each string. Thanks for the suggestions though!
