Player Information

Short version

Connect to mt.zackorndorff.com port 30000.

Installing Minetest

To play, you’ll need a copy of Minetest. You can get that from minetest.net. All mods, etc are downloaded from the server, so you should be able to just run it.

Windows

I recommend installing the portable version, but it’s your computer, not mine. You probably want the 64-bit version, unless you have a really ancient computer.

OS X

IDK how to install on OS X, let me know what works for you.

Linux

• Debian testing has a reasonably up-to-date package
• Ubuntu 16.04+ should be the same.
• Not sure about anything else.

Building from source also isn’t too bad.

Creating an account

Access to the server is invite-only. Whoever invited you should have given you the initial password, check with them if it doesn’t work.

You just need to pick a username and log in with the initial password. I highly recommend changing it once you’re logged in.

Skins

If you have a Minetest or Minecraft skin (AFAIK they’re compatible), Zack can install it for you if you send it to him. It’s no trouble, just let me know.

Controls/Minetest basics

• Esc to pause
• You move with WASD
• you turn with the mouse
• left click breaks things
• right click places things.
• mouse wheel to switch items
• Space to jump
• Shift to crouch/descend ladders
• I to open inventory
• T to open chat
• J to enable fast mode
• E to walk fast (press while walking)
• K to start flying
• H to turn on noclip (note: will likely be detected as cheating, since you don’t have that ability)

You can read the actual Controls page here.

Chat commands

Here are some chat commands you might want to know

• /spawn - Move to spawn point
• /sethome - Set your home area
• /home - Move to your set home area
• /me - Works as you expect

You can read the full list here.

Mumble

Mumble is a multiplayer chat tool, similar to Teamspeak.

Short version

Connect to mt.zackorndorff.com port 64738. When it asks you for a password, input the initial password you were given.

Long version

Sorry, idk. You can get Mumble from here. Once you run the installer, it seems to walk you through the process fairly well.

Please use the same username on both Mumble and Minetest, thanks.

You’ll likely want to join the Minetest channel when you join.
