These start up the Minetest server at boot time with a "screen" process.
|
|
|
|
1. Copy **minetest** into **/home/mtowner/bin** - make sure it is executable
|
|
2. Copy **startminetest** into **/home/mtowner/minetest** - make sure it is executable
|
|
3. Put **@reboot /home/mtowner/bin/minetest start** into your crontab
|
|
4. Put **@reboot /home/mtowner/bin/startrelay** into your crontab
|
|
5. Run the relay setup:
|
|
pip install aiohttp
|
|
pip install discord.py
|
|
|
|
cd /home/mtowner
|
|
unzip MinetestStartup/MyRelay.zip
|
|
cd /home/mtowner/minetest/mods/discordmt
|
|
vi relay.conf # Set the discord bot info where needed
|
|
Activate the bot with: https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=CLIENTID&scope=bot
|
|
Run startrelay
|
|
Restart the minetest server, and enable the discordmt
|
|
|
|
When you want to view the Minetest console, just enter "**screen -r**" in your shell.
|
|
|
|
To disconnect from the Minetest console just press **CTRL-A CTRL-D**. This will leave it running and you can reconnect to it again.
|
|
|
|
I have only tested this on a Ubuntu 16.04 server...
|
|
|
|
If you want to turn off the server respawning type "**touch /home/mtowner/minetest/nostart**". To reenable it type "**rm /home/mtowner/minetest/nostart**".

Note: If you don't already have the "screen" tool installed you will need to install it by "**sudo apt-get install screen**".
