-A '''world''' contains an environment and/or building(s) you can play in. A world also includes all saved data associated with a world, like player data, mob positions, health, breath, and the like.
-== Finding worlds ==
-* See [https://forum.minetest.net/viewforum.php?f=12 Maps] in the [http://forum.minetest.net forums] to find downloads to worlds that others have made.
-== Installation ==
-'''To install worlds:''' You have to extract them first. Most of them are in <code>.zip</code>, some of them can be in <code>.7z</code>, <code>.rar</code> or <code>.tar.gz</code> format. To extract archive files other than <code>.zip</code> on Windows, you need [https://7-zip.org/ 7-Zip].
-For world creators, <code>.7z</code> is the recommended archive format as it is a free format (as compared to <code>.rar</code>) that typically allows for the best compression.
-Put the extracted files in the “<code>worlds</code>” folder of your Minetest installation folder. The files such as <code>env_meta.txt</code> must be in the root of the world’s folder (eg. “<code>worlds/my_world/env_meta.txt</code>”).
-* Location of the <code>worlds</code> directory within the directory structure of a run-in-place installation of Minetest, including some of the folders Minetest adds after some usage as client and server, as well as the positions (…) that custom-made content goes. Irrelevant folders are not expanded.
-<pre>
-This commented example shows the location and structure of a world called "someworld":
-    minetest/
-    ├── worlds/         (this folder will be created when the first local/singleplayer world is created)
-    │   ├── someworld        (the name given to the world by the user when it is created)
-    │   │   ├── players.sqlite (ingame data for each player)
-    │   │   ├── worldmods/     (create this folder for world exclusive mods)
-    │   │   ├── auth.sqlite    (player login data)
-    │   │   ├── env_meta.txt   (contains mostly time related information)
-    │   │   ├── map.sqlite     (database containing the map. The name may differ depending on backend used)
-    │   │   ├── map_meta.txt   (defines which mapgen is used and how)
-    │   │   └── world.mt       (should at least contain the game ID without which the world
-    │   │                       will not show up in the singleplayer tab)
-    │   └── … (more saved worlds. Some with exclusive world mods)
-    └── (other files and directories)
-</pre>
-== World directory content ==
-For documentation about the structure of e.g. databases and the mapblock binary format, see [https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/doc/world_format.txt world_format.txt] in the Minetest source tree.
-===auth.sqlite===
-The authentication database. Name may differ according to the [[Database backends|database backend]] type used.
-===env_meta.txt===
-Simple global environment variables.
-Example content:
-  game_time = 73471
-  time_of_day = 19118
-  EnvArgsEnd
-===force_loaded.txt===
-Lua table containing forcibly loaded Mapblocks.
-===ipban.txt===
-Banned IP addresses and usernames.
-Example content:
-.456.78.9|foo
-.456.78.10|bar
-===map_meta.txt===
-Simple global map variables. The [[Map generator]] is defined here along with [[Map generator/settings|its parameters]].
-Example content:
-  seed = 7980462765762429666
-  mg_name = v7
-  [end_of_params]
-===map.sqlite===
-Map database used for storing the locations and data of blocks. Name may differ according to the [[Database backends|database backend]] type used.
-===mod_storage.sqlite===
-Mod storage database used for storing mod-specific data. Name may differ according to the [[Database backends|database backend]] type used.
-===players.sqlite===
-Player database used for storing usernames and (encrypted) passwords. Name may differ according to the [[Database backends|database backend]] type used.
-===world.mt===
-Miscellaneous world metadata. Uses the Minetest Settings format.
-Example content:
-  creative_mode = false
-  player_backend = sqlite3
-  backend = sqlite3
-  gameid = nodecore
-  load_mod_coolmod = false
-The file includes lines stating what type of database backend is used and a list of installed mods with information whether they are activated for this world.
-Some third party software such as minetestmapper may also only consider the folder a valid minetest world when the world.mt is present.
-===/worldmods (folder)===
-This optional folder may contain mods that are needed for this map exclusively. All mods and modpacks inside this folder gets loaded no matter what.
-===Legacy===
-====auth.txt====
-If the world uses the obsolete ''files'' backend for authentication, this file contains authentication data, player per line.
-  <name>:<password hash>:<privilege1,...>
-Legacy format (until 0.4.12) of password hash is <name><password> SHA1'd,
-in the base64 encoding.
-Format (since 0.4.13) of password hash is #1#<salt>#<verifier>, with the
-parts inside <> encoded in the base64 encoding.
-<verifier> is an RFC 2945 compatible SRP verifier,
-of the given salt, password, and the player's name lowercased,
-using the 2048-bit group specified in RFC 5054 and the SHA-256 hash function.
-====/player (folder)====
-If the world uses the obsolete ''files'' backend for player data, this folder will contain player data.
-Filename can be anything.
-Contains ingame data for each player in a file named after the player.
-== Schem file Creation / Import ==
-A '''schem file (<code>.mts</code>)''' is used to import building(s) into a world with the [https://content.minetest.net/packages/sfan5/worldedit/ WorldEdit mod]. This file can be found in “<code>worlds/<my_world>/schems</code>” folder.
-* To '''create a schem file''' :
-# Type in your world name (with WorldEdit activated).
-# Grant yourself all [[privileges]]: <code>/grantme all</code>
-# Press <kbd>F5</kbd> to show the coordinates.
-# Select the area to export by commands with <code>//pos1</code> and <code>//pos2</code> (these positions corresponds to an invisible diagonal of a cuboid selection).
-# Create your schem file with <code>//mtschemcreate <name of your schem file></code>. The file will be created into your “<code>worlds/<my_world>/schems</code>” folder.
-* To '''import a schem file''' :
-# Enter in your world (with WorldEdit activated).
-# Grant yourself all privileges: <code>/grantme all</code>
-# Put a schem file into your “<code>worlds/<name of your new world>/schems</code>" folder.
-# Press <kbd>F5</kbd> to show the coordinatess.
-# Place a position where you want with command: <code>//pos1</code>
-# Import your schem file with <code>//mtschemplace <name of your schem file></code>

-* [[Minetestmapper]], a program to draw a 2D map of a Minetest world.
