Mineflayer bot does not follow server redirects (e.g. login server to game server)

detail

Many Minecraft servers have a login server and a game server, and players are automatically redirected from the login server to the game server after authentication. However, it seems that Mineflayer bots cannot follow these server redirects and just stay on the original server.

For example, try connecting to:

• 3c3u.org

This server uses a login server that redirects players to a different game server, but Mineflayer bots remain stuck on the login server.

Would it be possible to implement automatic redirect handling so the bot can follow the player transfer to the target server?

Thank you for your great work on Mineflayer.
