Multiplayer Server

You can install Luanti on a server you run at home or on a VPS.

VPS (Virtual Private Server)

Described here is the start of a VPS at ecowan with preinstalled yunohost – a user friendly server variant based on Linux.

Install Luanti

After configuring your yunohost (connect to your domain setting up the DNS), you can open your yunohost admin panel and install Luanti. Choose in Applications > Games the app Minetest (Minetest has be renamed to Luanti, but in yunohost, it is still "Minetest"). Luanti will not be shown as tile on your user interface – you have to start it over a terminal.

Install VoxeLibre

Connect in a terminal to your VPS server over ssh and go to the folder /var/www/minetest/games. Clone the actual version of VoxeLibre into this folder

git clone https://git.minetest.land/VoxeLibre/VoxeLibre

After installation of the game, you have to change the minetest.conf file in /home/yunohost.app/minetest/.minetest. Scroll trough the file in a text editor and change server_address to the server you named in yunohost (e.g., if you installed luanti in a subfolder "luanti" in yunohost on your domain "yourdomain.fr", you would set

server_address  = luanti.yourdomain.fr

If you want only play VoxeLibre, you can change default_game into "VoxeLibre". You have to change map-dir into

/home/yunohost.app/minetest/.minetest/worlds/world

Your are ready now to start the server:

bin/luantiserver --gameid VoxeLibre
