For Server Hosts: How to install mods

[cweiske]

The "for server hosts" section should contain a page on how to install mods on a server.
Topics could be:

• Which folder to clone to
• How to enable the mods for the world
• Is installation possible via some UI

Installing and using a game on Debian 13

• git clone games into /usr/share/luanti/games, e.g.

$ cd /usr/share/luanti/games
$ git clone https://git.minetest.land/VoxeLibre/VoxeLibre.git

• put LUANTI_GAMEID=VoxeLibre into /etc/luanti/default.env
• systemctl restart luanti-server.service
• watch the logs: journalctl -efu luanti-server

Installing a mod on Debian 13

• go to the default world path: /var/lib/luanti/default/worlds/world
• create directory worldmods
• git clone the mod into the worldmods directory
• enable the mod by editing world.mt: load_mod_orehud = worldmods/oretracker/orehud

$ cd /var/lib/luanti/default/worlds/world
$ mkdir worldmods
$ cd worldmods
$ git clone https://github.com/programmerjake/OreTracker.git oretracker
$ cd ../../
$ echo "load_mod_orehud = worldmods/oretracker/orehud" >> world.mt
$ systemctl restart luanti-server.service
