The command minetest --server --world ${name}
is used to start a Minetest server and load a specific world.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
minetest
: This is the executable file for the Minetest game.--server
: This flag indicates that the Minetest instance should be run in server mode, which means it will function as a multiplayer server.--world ${name}
: This flag specifies the world to be loaded by the server.${name}
is a placeholder for the actual name of the world. You need to replace${name}
with the name of the world you want to load.
For example, if you have a world named "myworld", you would run the command as minetest --server --world myworld
to start the Minetest server and load the "myworld" world.
