Hello.

What do you mean by source for the docs? The packets were mainly reverse-engineered many, many years ago. I think Folko did a lot of this work? Not sure. You can find the docs here: http://docs.polserver.com/packets/index.php

Most of the docs are generated from XML definition files and XML templates. These files are processed by PHP scripts and then rendered into HTML.

By example, sources for the core docs are located in the docs/docs.polserver.com subfolder on the core git repository.

But I couldn't find sources for the packets doc.

The packets do not exist as normal files they are just database entries. Thus can be edited by certain members online.
