Creating a Server | Appendix | Minetest Modding Course
In this video we'll be taking a look at how to host and run your own Minetest server on a GNU/Linux system. The basics are probably the same for windows and mac, but I don't own either of those systems so don't bother asking about it. :P

Minetest Mod Review: Lightup
This mod provides users with a way to point at a node, up to around 15 nodes away, and create light at the point. The light lasts for a second or so, and gives the effect of a beam of light. I had some issues with flickering when underwater, but that doesn't look like it's suppose to happen, maybe just an issue on my end.

Minetest Mod Review: Mese Portals
Linked portals with two way travel. Portals can be relinked, but only to another portal that is currently unlinked. Fortunately you can create independent portal controllers and put them all together in a single location for easy portal management.

Minetest Mod Review: Ultralight Trike
Fly around the world, you can even take a passenger with you. Be watchful of your fuel levels, and maybe think ahead and build a landing strip before you take off, crashing and dying is kinda uncool.

Minetest Mod Review: Power Rangers
I know absolutely nothing about the Power Rangers franchise so I'm afraid I didn't do a great job at reviewing this mod. That said it does have a handful of armors and weapons that you can get and use as a power ranger. Some of the chat commands seem to differ in their required arguments which is slightly annoying, but there is thankfully in game help to mitigate that problem.

Minetest Mod Review: Death Compass
This mod adds a bony death compass, that is a skeleton hand that points to your bones after you die. The mod can be configured to give a death compass to every player when they die, or can require you to have one in inventory when you die for it to function.

This mod adds a large handful of new ancient architectural nodes, pillars, walls, and floors. You can toggle between different styles using the included chisel, which includes a neat feature where you can save a style and then apply it to all other nodes with a single click, rather than having to cycle through all the options.

Minetest Mod Review: Abripanes
This mod lets you create your own stained glass mosaics in Minetest. Of course you are restricted to square shapes, but that goes without saying. The glass panes are transparent and they emit a little bit of light, so your glorious creations can be seen at night.
