I thought I'd work on the HandlePlayerAbilities, but i'm stuck already. How do those "Flags" work?

Those flags are just a bitfield, similar to how some block metadata work in MC. Bit 0 says if the player thinks they are in Creative mode, bit 1 says if they think they are flying, bit 2 says if they think they are allowed to fly, etc.
To construct such a value, you OR the bit values together:

Byte ValueToSend = 1 | 2 | 4;  // Creative, flying, can fly

To query such value, you AND it with the respective bitmasks:

if ((ValueReceived & 1) != 0)
{
  // Creative
}
if ((ValueReceived & 2) != 0)
{
  // Flying
}

Note that the vanilla server ignores some of these, we should as well.

Look at me flying in survival

Send me or post the plugin please
I always wanted the /fly command in MCServer.

It's not a plugin I'm making the server able to control if a player can fly and is flying.

It's awesome that you're doing more CPP :)

xoft are you okay with the names of the functions?

The names are great.

I have to say, you have really surprised me. When you started tinkering with MCS, I wouldn't have believed that you'd get so good. Keep surprising me in such good ways!
