Client.chat is only initialized after playerJoin is triggered.

The playerJoin event signals that the client is ready to send packets and interact with the API, however, the onReady function at /src/client/play.js@L68 only sets client.chat after the playerJoin event has been fired.

Current code

let Player = "[redacted]"
let Host = "[redacted]"
let Port = [redacted]

console.log(`> ${Player}`)

let Client = Minecraft.createClient({
	host: Host,
	port: Port,
	username: Player
})

Client.on("state", State => console.log(State))
Client.on("playerJoin", () => {
	Client.chat(`/tell ${Player} TypeError...`)
})

await new Promise((Resolve, _Reject) => {
	Client.once("end", Resolve)
})

console.log(`< ${Player}`)

Expected behavior

For Client.chat to be ready when playerJoin is fired.
