<h3>Rules</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Some people don't know how to behave in <abbr title="Internet Relay Chat">IRC</abbr>,
|
|
so here are some simple rules:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Don't ask if you can ask questions, just ask.</li>
|
|
<li>Be patient when you ask something, people might not be around.</li>
|
|
<li>Don't spam.</li>
|
|
<li>Don't flood the channel with messages or bot commands.</li>
|
|
<li>Use a pastebin if you want to post more than 4 lines (such as error messages or code).</li>
|
|
<li>Annoying, racist, or any form of derogatory terms against any user or channel operator will probably get you quieted; or even banned.</li>
|
|
<li>If you're going to ask someone something, "please" goes a very long way.</li>
|
|
<li>The channels are not playgrounds and are frequently used for talks which are not off-topic.</li>
|
|
<li>Off-topic is allowed, but excessive use of it is disallowed.</li>
|
|
<li>Link shorteners are discouraged for URLs that are not very long.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|

|
<p>
|
|
There are several ways to get into development:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Giving support on the <a href="https://forum.minetest.net">forums</a> and <a href="#internet-relay-chat">IRC</a>.</li>
|
|
<li>Work on a <a href="http://dev.minetest.net/Modding_Intro">game or mod</a>,
|
|
and publish it on <a href="https://content.minetest.net">ContentDB</a>
|
|
or <a href="https://forum.minetest.net">the forums</a>.</li>
|
|
<li>Help develop Minetest by reporting
|
|
bugs and submiting patches on
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/minetest">GitHub</a> or <a href="#internet-relay-chat">IRC</a>.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Translating:</strong> Help translating Minetest using
|
|
<a href="https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/minetest/minetest/">our web interface</a>.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2>The Process</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Upstream repositories and official Windows packages are handled by the <a href="https://github.com/minetest?tab=members">core team</a>, consisting of a bunch of people who are much trusted to keep Minetest progressing in good condition. The core team is best contacted on <abbr title="Internet Relay Chat">IRC</abbr> at <code>#minetest-dev @ chat.freenode.net</code>.
|
|
The core team is formed of people who have made great <a href="/credits/">contributions</a> to Minetest.
|
|
Contributions are approved if two members of the core team agree on them.
|
|
</p>
|
|

|
<h2>Project Structure</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Minetest is distributed as an engine, combined with a couple of games. Upstream repositories can be found at <a href="https://github.com/minetest/">https://github.com/minetest/</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><div> <strong>The engine</strong> (core) is the base for everything. C++ is used for housekeeping and performance-critical stuff, Lua for extensible things.</div>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><div> <strong>Games</strong> define game content: nodes, entities, textures, meshes, sounds and custom behavior implemented in Lua. Games consist of mods that plug into the engine using the <a href="http://dev.minetest.net">Modding API</a>.</div>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
