Server commands

Revision as of 11:44, 10 April 2013

This is a list of all possible commands for the player to use in the "chat" box in-game. Arguments in <> are required whereas arguments in [] are optional.

• /help [command] - Shows help about a specific command, if there is no argument, shows a command list based on available privileges.
• /me <action> - IRC-style action in chat.
• /status - Get server status: version, uptime, player list, message of the day.
• /mods - Get the list of mods installed on the server.
• /msg <name> <message> - Send a private message.
• /pulverize - Destroys the item currently in hand. Can be used by any player.
• /privs [name] - Show privileges of "name", if not specified, shows your privileges.

• /grant <name> <privilege> - Give a privilege to someone. Requires the "privs" privilege.
• /revoke <name> <privilege> - Take away a privilege from someone. Requires the "privs" privilege.
• /teleport <x>,<y>,<z> | <target_player> | <player_to_teleport> <target_player> - Teleport to given position or player. Requires the 'teleport' privilege. Teleporting players to you requires the "bring" privilege.
• /time <time> - Set time-of-day. 0 and 24000 is midnight, 18000 is sunset, 6000 is day. (hour * 1000). Requires the "settime" privilege.
• /set -n time_speed N <speed> - Set the speed of day-night cycle where N is the time speed (read as "N times slower than in real life"). 72 is the default, which means a day-night cycle lasts 20 minutes by default.
• /giveme [mod:]<item> [count] - Give certain item to yourself. For a list of items to use this with, see the Item Codes page.
• /give <player> [mod:]<item> [count] - Give certain item to the player.
• /shutdown - Shuts down the server. This can only be done by the user called "name" in the server's minetest.conf, or, as of 0.4.0, the "server" privilege.
• /clearobjects - Clears all objects/entities (removes all dropped items and mobs). Note this may crash the server or slow it down insanely for about 30 to 60 seconds.
