The Minimal development test (or “minimal” for short) is a test “game” for Minetest which is only intended to be used by developers. This is not a real playable game and not meant for players. It's meant for development (both core developers, and modders which want fast startup for testing mods).
As of version 0.4.16, it is shipped together with Minetest by default.
Overview
Minimal development test (MDT) very minimalist and only contains a very basic mapgen and a few nodes and items. It only features one sound when walking on dirt with grass, no other sounds are included. Textures are different than in Minetest Game.
Many items and nodes are borrowed from Minetest Game, although most of them are much simpler and many things have been removed.
It has a mod with name “experimental” adding experimental nodes, items and entities and other stuff meant to test engine features. Stuff in this mod is expected to have bugs. It contains things like the “tester tool 1”.
Also, it always gives items to players upon joining and uses different default textures.
Items
This is a list of items in Minimal development test and their itemstrings, as of version 0.4.16.
Many items are equivalent to those in Minetest Game. A couple of items are also “experimental” and used for testing new engine featurs.
Tools
Testing tools
Tools to test various engine functionality.
Tester Tool 1
Itemstring: experimental:tester_tool_1
Punch a node to spawn a tester node 1. Punch the tester node 1 again to make it drop.
This node tests various node time callbacks like on_timer, on_construct, on_destruct, after_dig_node, and more.
Tester Tool 2
Itemstring: experimental:tester_tool_2
Punch a node to spawn a floating particle.
