This is a mostly frozen copy of the Minetest forums through 2017. If you know phpBB3 and would like to host any G-rated forum here, you can email: me@minetest.org If the email doesn't work, find out who's taken over Final Minetest from OldCoder and email them to get write access or an admin account.
I should have set this up years ago. But it's no tale of woe.
Whether the temperature is high or low, regardless of cold winds blow,
away we go like Edgar Allan Poe, on now with the show. BTW rhymes are welcome.

200 ms is a good ping for Minetest (few servers I know have a better ping). If you're far away from your server, you're going to lag. 2 Mb/s is slow by today's standards too, although low throughput does not necessarily result in high latency.
Also, it's quite easy for a Minetest server to have 10+ seconds of lag due to bugs (EmergeThread?).

Heh... from New Zealand to Kansas, there's at least 5000 km (no idea actually), so lag has to be expected.

Same here, and believe me it has NOTHING to do with server capacity or networking. I can run on a blazing fast server with tons of RAM and a very good network, and the second player to connect from INSIDE the LAN causes these same issues. And yes, this is even with the server's anti-cheat detection turned off in the configuration file. It's just Minetest, unfortunately.

Yeah, ive always wondered why minecraft was so fast and minetest was so slow
My history isn't revenge, or hate. The road that brought us both here - isn't about that. It's about the message you carried. The one in that package whether you knew it or not. - Ulysses from Lonesome Road

On my computer, it's the opposite. Minecraft is unbearably slow, but Minetest is like lightning.

Multiplayer is relatively new? What do you mean?
