Minetest (Block Sandbox)

Available since: version 0.9

Minetest is a multiplayer infinite-world block sandbox. This module enables the Minetest server to be run on this FreedomBox, on the default port (30000). To connect to the server, a Minetest client is needed.

Port Forwarding

If your FreedomBox is behind a router, you will need to set up port forwarding on your router. You should forward the following ports for Minetest:

• UDP 30000

Install and enable mods

After SSHing into your FreedomBox server, install (unzip or git clone) mods in /var/games/minetest-server/.minetest/mods (for example, for the mobs_animal mod, you'd have the new /var/games/minetest-server/.minetest/mods/mobs_animal/ directory).

To enable a mod, first restart minetest:

sudo systemctl restart minetest-server.service

This will update the world config file, located in /var/games/minetest-server/.minetest/worlds/world/world.mt, with a line related to the added mod. Set that line from false to true in order to enable the new mod in your minetest instance. For example:

load_mod_mobs_animal = true

After that, save your changes, restart minetest one more time, then you should be all set.
