minetestserver: Specify a game to use.
$ minetestserver --gameid ${game_id}
try on your machine

The command minetestserver --gameid ${game_id} is used to start a Minetest server with a specific game.

Here's a breakdown of what each part of the command means:

  • minetestserver: This is the executable file that starts the Minetest server. It is the main program responsible for running the server.

  • --gameid: This is a flag specifying that the following argument is the ID of the game to be loaded. The game ID is used to identify and load the appropriate game content, including mods, textures, and other assets.

  • ${game_id}: This is a placeholder variable or parameter that should be replaced with the actual game ID when using the command. The actual value of the game ID that you want to use should be provided.

By using this command with the appropriate game ID, you can start a Minetest server with a specific game configuration and content.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
