-#Start your server on your desired port
-#*'''Note''': It is recommended to leave the port at the default (30000)
-#Find out your internal IP of the computer you are running the server on
-#*'''Linux''': open a terminal and type '''ifconfig''' and hit enter
-#*'''Windows''': Start>run>cmd>ipconfig
-#Check the port forwarding settings on your router
-#*forward your chosen port for both TCP and UDP (30000 if you left it default) to the internal IP
-#*In addition, alter any firewalls you may have to pass the traffic at that port
-#To see how to '''run''' a server, please read the section below
-#Let your friends know your external IP
-#Add "server_announce = 1" to your minetest.config to announce it to a public server list.
-== Running a Server ==
-=== Linux ===
-#Open a terminal.
-#Type in "YOUR/MINETEST/DIRECTORY/bin/minetestserver" without quotes or just drop the minetestserver executable (located in /Minetest/bin/) into the terminal '''(PLEASE READ THE NOTES BELOW!)'''
-#*If you want to specify a specific game ID, the game ID choices are located in /Minetest/games/. Add in ''--gameid '''thegameid''' '' to the end of the command.
-#*If you get the error "Multiple worlds are available.", the world choices are located in /Minetest/worlds/. Add in ''--worldname '''theWorld''' '' to the end of the command.
-#If your server crashes, then look at the debug.txt in /Minetest/bin/
-#Enjoy running a Minetest server!
-For easy use you can create an file named minetestserver.sh, add the lines below and put it in your /Minetest/bin/ folder. To run the server, just run the file in a terminal.
- #!/bin/bash -x
- ./minetestserver --gameid minetest --worldname world
-=== Windows ===
-#Open command prompt by going in the Minetest installation folder, then in the "bin" folder, hold Shift, do a right click on a empty file (not on minetest.exe), click "Open command window here".
-#Type this, without quotes: "minetest.exe --server".
-#*If you get the error "Multiple worlds are available.", use "minetest.exe --server --worldname '''world_name'''" instead, where world_name is the name of the world.
-#If your server crashes, then look at the debug.txt in /Minetest/bin/
-#Enjoy running a Minetest server!
-If you don't like to start the crashed server, simply start the server out of a batch file which contains the following code:
- @echo off
- :crash
- minetest.exe --server --worldname ''world_name''
- goto crash
