Proper Way to Shutdown MineTest Sever

by BBmine » Sun Jan 01, 2017 22:08

Hello, I have a private Minetest server running in the background on my desktop. I often forget to do killall minetest. Will anything bad happen to the server if it gets shutdown as a result of the computer shutting down? I know bad stuff happens when a server is killed as a result of a crash. Maybe the computer nicely shuts down minetest when the computer is nicely told to shutdown?
