Luanti.

Scripts on Luanti (formerly Minetest) servers, through one regular mod.

This page is generated from the SDK's platform registry (sdk/environments.json) and the adapter's SETUP.md. The Luanti page on the site is the short version.

How it runs

One regular Luanti mod, scriptgo, runs the core in the server's Lua and ticks it from a globalstep. It needs no trusted-mod entry; HTTP needs the server owner to list it in secure.http_mods.

The adapter's code and README: sdk/adapters/luanti.

Set up

1. Build the mod, optionally with resources bundled in:

   bashCopy

   node sdk/adapters/luanti/build.mjs --with sdk/packages/sg_inventory --with sdk/packages/sg_eventbus

2. Copy dist/luanti/scriptgo/ into the server's mods/ folder and enable it for the world (load_mod_scriptgo = true in world.mt). It is a regular mod: it needs no entry in secure.trusted_mods.

3. Put further resources in <world>/scriptgo/resources/<name>/. Every resource with auto_start true starts with the server, dependencies first.

4. Optional <world>/scriptgo.json:

   jsonCopy

   {
     "resources": { "sg_inventory": { "slots": 30 } },
     "convars": { "scriptgo_api": "https://api.scriptgo.dev" },
     "permissions": { "alice": ["command.giveitem"] }
   }

Only the server side runs. HTTP, and so online license checks, needs the mod listed in secure.http_mods by the server owner.

Capabilities

What the adapter provides. See SDK and capabilities for what each one is.

Protection

Licence check and signed releases. The host runs plain script, so its operator can read what it loads: no code-secrecy claim.

See Protect your work for what protection does and does not do.

Assets

Maps, models, textures, sounds and other files players download. See Selling assets.

Run on Luanti 5.18.0 (official server image): every packed media file was announced to clients with the SHA-1 of its bytes. No client was run.

Asset escrow: Not feasible without forking the engine.

Limits

• No client side.
• HTTP, and so online license checks, only when the server owner allows it.
• Verified headless on Luanti 5.18.0 (LuaJIT); paths that need a connected player are not yet covered by a run.

Real runs

Each row is a scriptgo verify run on Luanti itself, not on a mock or an emulator: the package started there and its own tests reported back. Rows marked probe are SCRIPT//GO's conformance probes, which exercise the runtime and are never published as packages. See how a status is earned.
